What’s up guys and welcome back to my channel. For today’s review,
we have a wireless 5G 1080p NVR security camera kit by NUFEBS.
So gone are the days when we had to run wires like everywhere leading back to our DVRs,
and security cameras that were limited to 480p and 720p resolutions, sometimes making it
difficult to identify faces and number plates. With this new wireless security camera system
it eliminates this issue, it delivers much higher recording quality, and it comes with
smart detection and intruder deterrent features. So in this video, we take a look at the quality
of the equipment, how to set it up, its smart detection and deterrent features,
and of course its 1080p recording quality. So stay tuned that’s right after this.
And
welcome back. So in the box, you get the NVR unit.
Four wireless cameras. Four 12V 1A power adapters for the cameras.
For external antennas. One 12V 2A DC power adapter for the NVR.
4 packs of wall plugs and screws.
A wired optical mouse. One LAN cable.
A warranty card. And a user manual.
For design of the NVR, it comes with a metal housing with LEDs to indicate when it’s recording,
if an alarm has been triggered, and its power status to the front.
For input-output ports, it comes with one HDMI output, one VGA output, one audio output headphone
jack, one ethernet LAN port, 2 USB 2.0 ports, its DC power socket, and two external antennas.
Each security camera is made of plastic and at the front,
it has a 1080p 2MP camera, it has 4 LED spotlights, a built-in microphone,
a speaker for the intercom feature, and a motion and night vision sensor.
For installing in any configuration, it comes with a 360° swivel feature with a tightening
wheel. It also has a 180° tilt feature with a tightening bolt to secure it in your desired
position. For maximum reception, it comes with a gold-plated connector for an external antenna.
The base of the camera comes with 3 holes for screwing to wood, concrete,
and even metal services. There is a cutout to prevent the power cable from being squeezed
when screwed down to a surface, and it has a foam padding to absorb vibration.
And once you have installed your cameras you simply plug in the power adapter.
So when you start the NVR for the first time, all 4 cameras will begin
automatically connecting in the background while you complete a first startup wizard.
The wizard includes 2 to 3 layers of security to prevent hacking or remotely accessing your NVR.
By the time you have completed the wizard, all 4 cameras will be up and running.
Before exiting the wizard you will be prompted to install the remote control app by scanning the QR
code on the screen, and finally the option to set the display resolution of the monitor
connected to its HDMI port. Please note this is not the display settings for the cameras.
So the NVR and its cameras both have independent firmware you can update separately, and I will
show how you do this in just a moment. This model does not support connecting
to the Internet via WiFi, so you will have to connect via LAN cable to gain access.
Its settings and features will be a bit challenging for some users,
as there are many complicated settings, metrics, and network settings that are a
bit much even for me, so if you like lots of features where you can tweak a lot of
your settings then you would enjoy this NVR. However, before you begin adjusting or changing
features you should know, that the optical mouse it comes with, is very cheap and makes
it difficult to navigate the interface. So I recommend that you ditch the optical mouse and
use a more high-quality one wired or wireless. It makes the navigation experience much better.
So as to not complicate the video I will focus on the features that matter the most to the average
user, and I will first start with adjusting the display and recording features on each camera.
There are some features that can be adjusted directly on the NVR,
and there are some that can be only accessed on the mobile app.
On any camera right-click for the pop-up menu and select IPC parameters. In this menu,
you can switch between each camera without exiting the setting and all
changes are saved upon pressing the okay button.
Under image settings, as mentioned this is where it starts to get a bit tech-savvy.
First you have color adjustments for when the infrared LED is on, and when it is off.
Just below that you have daylight and nighttime modes. This is where
you can switch between various infrared modes, full-color, and smart alert modes.
You have 3 general color presets for capturing surveillance.
Style number one, tones down the color a bit and increases brightness and contrast.
Style number 2 is in your default full-color style,
and style number 3 increases the color depth.
The next option is WDR which stands for Wide Dynamic Range. And it’s a technology that improves
a camera’s image quality under high contrast and poorly lit conditions, where it enables the camera
to capture details clearly in both the poorly and strongly illuminated areas of the video.
Next, you have the option to select between fluency preferred or quality
preferred. This is sort of the equivalent of changing the resolution of each camera.
Where fluency will ensure seamless capture performance by selecting a lower resolution,
and quality would capture at the highest resolution with the most details. However,
it uses more storage space and hardware resources and it can sometimes result in latency between
what’s actually happening in real-time, and what’s being displayed on the monitor.
Under advanced there are even more settings. However, I suggest unless you really need
to change any of thes settings or you know exactly what you’re doing,
you should leave these settings as they are. There is an easier way to change its basic
color settings and that’s by right-clicking on any camera, and selecting color settings. To the top,
you will see the camera’s channel number and its basic color and brightness adjustments.
However, I have been adjusting these parameters for quite some time,
and they don’t seem to change the display at all.
The next most used feature for the standard user is the playback
feature. So right-click anywhere on the screen and select playback.
Again in this section, there are many playback options to choose from,
but the most commonly used ones would be common playback and synchronized playback.
Common playback allows you to playback footage where you can change the position of the timeline
individually allowing individual playback of each channel on the screen at the same time.
Synchronized playback will change the timeline of all channels at the same time.
Each playback is recorded with audio, so the synchronized playback can sound noisy when
all channels are playing at the same time. To stop the noise or to listen to the audio of a
particular camera, simply click on a particular channel during the playback and the audio will be
played from that particular camera only. You have options to select how many
channels you want for the playback, the period of the playback, and the date.
To zoom in or expand the timeline simply use the mouse wheel while hovering the
cursor over the timeline, and depending on what you set the
cameras to detect it will be indicated on the timeline with different colors.
If there is an event or period on the timeline you would like to backup on a flash drive or external
storage, simply set the cursor on the timeline where you would like to start your clip, and
click the scissors icon to set the starting point. Then press the play button, or navigate further
down the timeline, and click or pause the footage to set the end position,
and click the scissors icon again to end the clip. Then to backup your recording, click the floppy
disk icon and it will bring up a browser window to select which drive or folder to save to,
from devices connected to its USB port. The good thing about this NVR is that it
comes with 2 USB ports so you don’t need to unplug your mouse and insert a flash drive or external
hard drive on a timer as is seen in other models. With that said an issue I see plaguing most NVRs
is that they can only read up to 32 GB flash drives.
The third most used feature is accessing and monitoring your security camera system on your
mobile phone while away from your home. With this camera system not only can you
remotely monitor your cameras, but listen to live audio, you can change
its color and recording settings, speak to persons using its two-way intercom feature,
you can enable alarm and spotlight feature, and you can even update the camera’s firmware.
To install the app simply move the cursor to the top of the screen and a scan code will appear.
Then scan the code and it will take you directly to the app on the play store.
The name of the app is XMeye Pro and to set it up,
for security reasons you first have to create an account, then you have to scan
the code on the screen again, and enter the username and password you created on the NVR.
For each camera to use its intercom feature press the microphone button,
then press cam, and then press and hold to speak to persons within the vicinity of
that camera. It operates much like a CB radio where in order to communicate with a person,
you have to release the microphone and press and hold it again to communicate.
If you select VCR it will output audio through the monitor’s speaker and not the camera.
And if you select the BC which stands for broadcast, your voice will be transmitted
over all cameras at once. This can come in handy when trying to find the pets such as dogs around
the yard, or kids playing outside and cannot hear when you call out to them from inside.
Tapping on the speaker button enables or disables
the live audio feature. This allows you to listen live to each camera.
The record button and the snapshot button allow you to record or take snapshots of a
particular camera and save the recording or snapshot to your phone’s internal storage.
In the settings area, you have video management for each camera,
where you can change the resolution from 720p or 1080p, adjust its frame rate, and display quality.
You can adjust its recording configuration, its color and orientation,
and its day and night modes. You have intelligent alarm settings.
You can restart the camera. Reset each camera to factory default settings.
You can update the firmware for each camera but individually.
And you have an about section.
The final feature I believe would be of interest to all users is its intelligent alarm system.
If you enable allow notifications, the email address you used to create your
account during the first startup wizard will receive push email notifications
whenever an event is detected by its intelligent alarm system.
If you open the human detection feature and enable it, it opens up all its alarm features.
Under alarm sound, you can enable or disable an alarm to
be played when it detects a humanoid object. You can choose from the selection of presets,
or you can record your own voice or create audio effects and custom-load it as an alarm.
Also as part of its alarm system, it has a flashing spotlight feature. However,
it does not work in sync with the audio alarm system it only works when you set
the display mode to full light mode. When in this mode, the audio alarm system is disabled.
