Title: VCR Commander II-Is it possible to shorten the record time?
Post by: MaxiOmega on July 02, 2006, 04:52:04 PM
Is it possible to shorten the record time from 5 minutes down to one? When it records 5 minutes past the eagle eye cut off, means you go through 6 minutes of tape with each movement it sees.

Unfortunately NO... it would be nice to have control over this.

When it records 5 minutes past the eagle eye cut off, means you go through 6 minutes of tape with each movement it sees.

Actually it goes 5 minutes past the last motion detector ON sent.
Since you are using a VCR and recording anyways, maybe increase the EagleEye's OFF time  to have the CAM stay on longer and just have a smaller blank gap between activations.  ;)
