Will the DVR automatically reuse the old video memory for newer video.

Hello Thanks for your message, I am sorry that the item does not have cycle record function. Thanks for your understanding, have a nice day:) Best Regards Amanda

That would be a matter of personal choice, but since the DVR overwrites the oldest file first when the card gets full, you could leave it on. You never know when something will happen that would make you wish you had left the cam on.

It uses minidv. To me it had been a major shortcoming as it has "eaten" some vital footage 3rd time using it due to time coding issues on the tape when stopping and starting frequently

Absolutely. I replaced my older "Q-See" dvr with this one and my cameras work the same.

Yes this dvr has the ability to format over and use it. Hopefully this will help

YES. If you stop playback, turn off the player or remove the DVD and then put it back in and restart the player it will automatically search last memory playback... AS LONG AS YOU TURN THIS FEATURE "ON" IN THE GENERAL SETUP PAGE DROP DOWN MENU UNDER "LAST MEMORY". The factory default is set to "OFF". And yes, it does work like it was designed to as long as it is turned on.

That would depend on your setup with the dvr. Ours works fine. Our dvr will not record protected tapes, even if recorded off of tv and just transferring for your personal use from Vhs to Dvds. So we generally just wait until it comes on Tv again or check for used movies on amazon or cheap movie bends in the stores.

No. The power comes from where the DVR gets its power. Each camera has two wires, one for video and one for power. These wires gets attached to long extensions back to DVR.

no...once the unit is full you have to delete items first to record again....that is if the unit works...my unit has already failed and will no longer record. considering the price of the unit I would not waste your money buying this particular unit

Yes it does. It automatically records over the oldest recordings by default.

All the time. On hi-res with full time recording on all channels, it will record/store over a week straight before it overwrites.

no, it creates a new video file for every block, it will just tell you memory full when you run out of memory it will not delete anything.

DVR = Digital Video RecorderWhich is exactly what this device does... sounds like you ar emisunderstanding the term.

No, it is false. The camera deletes the older file and starts recording in that new space. I have proved it with a 32gb it works good.

I have been unable to set the unit to automatically overwrite old data when the card is full. The camera will either let me record in a (3/5/10) minute loop, or record continuously until the card is full at which point it stops recording.

Yes it will copy over the oldest file. I only pull the card out every 3 or 4 months to make sure it is still working since they do go bad. I have another dash cam that also copies over oldest file, so I am thinking most if not all work the same way.
