Speaking of what a DVR, I should say that these devices are divided into three classes. Thus, there are following types:

1. Budget – digital video recorders that have no display, they simply perform the function of record. Such devices make photography in low quality with small resolution and no sound. The main advantage-relatively low price.

2. To the average price category are devices having a display as well as functionality for recording and playback of information. Have a standard recording resolution 640x480. Compared to budget, here the quality of the recorded video, of course, better and with sound. The advantage of the devices related to the average price category, is the combination of reasonable price and good quality.

3. Premium-class the most functional and progressive DVRs from all of the above. Video resolution – high quality (from 960 × 720 to 1280×720). The footage can be stored on the memory card. DVR, the choice of which you will not disappoint – this device is of premium class, which knows how to move that expands the horizon of his inspection. The device is embedded GPS/GPRS module that determines location of a vehicle, sending a message of a warning nature on the cell phone if there is an unplanned situation.

It is also Worth noting a useful device functions when talking about what the DVR:

Mount DVRs are of such types:

A) adhesive – great if you use the device in the same car;

B) mount-suction Cup – a great option for people who are changing the location of the device on the glass.

Any driver will easily be able to set the DVR in the car itself, as the power to the device is supplied from the cigarette lighter. Although it is worth noting that there are some models that are included when you start the ignition and is connected to the wiring of the car, but they must set a master in the service station.
