Linux Embedded DVR

Does anyone know who manufactures the GEN IV Technologies' Stand Alone DVR? It runs embedded Linux.

The manufacturer is in Korea, and there is a distributor in the US, but no one wants to give itup.

I would really appreciate some pointers.

Intellicam and LJD own the manufacturer. If you visit uspto.org and do a search for gen iv technology, you can find the trademark owner.

They are made in Korea and the JPEG2000 unit releases soon. You may purchase direct from Korea if you prefer, but with shipping, the price ends up being higher than Intellicam supplies in the USA to "volume" buyers, and the same holds true for our sister company in the UK, (LJD). It is merely an entry to mid level solution. Very popular (over 72000 sold) due to good performance at a good price, with what is probably an idustry best reliability rate.

MFFIP, Inc. announces the sale of a US Utility Patent Application designated DVR001. The disclosure includes innovations in the DVR field. Bids are being accepted on eBay, item number 5981167951.

Does anyone know who the korean supplier of the product is?
I spoke with LJD on the phone recently and they say they build and program the DVR in the UK.
I do know they program it here because I have had them customized for me but I would like to know who the koreen supplier is.

Thanks!

Please inform us that who manufactures the GEN IV Technologies' Stand Alone DVR? It runs embedded Linux.

Thank you Gerald for the great piece of information. I just talked with the Intellicam folks and they're awesome.

Why not build your own?

In regards to Gerald Spradlins comment where he claims that he owns the manufacturer of the GEN IV. This is not true. He may own a little stock but by no means has the right to claim ownership. You would think if he actually owned the manufacturer he would be able to keep their products in stock which they can't seen to do. And when they do have them they are getting them through a third party here in the USA. I will say that Gerald Spradlin does own the logo GEN IV. Just the logo. The JPEG2000 DVMR is sold and imported by many other companies that do not stamp their logo on the DVR.

Nestor, about your 16 Channel Default Password problem. By default there is no password even though it does ask for one when you press the MENU button. When it asks for the password try simply pressing the ENTER button on the DVR. The ENTER button is just below the UP ARROW and has symbol that looks just like the symbol on your computers keyboard, Arrow pointing to the left. If the DVR says "invalid password" then there is a password set on the DVR. If it lets you into the menus then there was no password and your in. If it turns out there is a password set then keep in mind that there is a master password that will get you in. I can't post that password here out of respect but your welcome to contact any reputable dealer of the JPEG2000 DVR and they may be willing to help you get in to reset the password. Just do a Google for "JPEG2000 DVR" and you will get a list of sellers. Berry

I can't get our GenIV DVR to playback in "Motion Det" mode - it automatically jumps to "All" - and shows no selections for motion detection.
I cannot find a way to get it back to record in motion detection - Please, can someone help?
Thanks

anybody tell me,to buy additional new camera, what kind specifications to look for , for this 16 chanells dvr systym

I purchased a Gen IV Technology DVR Model G4-764 last year in August. The guy who installed it has been horrible with getting back to me on explaining how to use the system. To make a long story short, my home was broken into twice in three months, so I figured the way to go would be installing security cameras. While the system works perfectly, the gut who installed it accidently left my home with the instruction manual and the remote. Once I came back to live at my home in Sept 2007, I realized I did not have these items and have been calling him ever since to get them. He always schedules appointments, but never shows up. It is going on six months now and not only do I not have a remote, but my system is still not connected to my static Ip address for me to view the cameras online if I am away from home. I'm very frustrated and need help in where I go to purchase a new remote and receive a manaual. BTW, does the manual explain how to set up the ip to view on the computer?

Any help is appreciated.

Does any one have a manual or know where I can get a manual for "Intellicam Gen IV 8 Channel CCTV DVR"?? It appears that this was mfg. in Asia somewhere. It is used but seems to be in good shape. Any help or a push in the right direction would be much appreciated.

You can download a user manual at www.jpeg2000support.com. The manual is for the newer model but most of it should still apply to your DVR as well.

I am currently using a system from this manufacturer and it has a very good resolution and frame rate as well. Also Linux based with quad core video streaming.

They have some good video analytics available as well.

Anyone know the master password for the Gen IV Technology 8ch DVR video only with cdr?

I have a Gen IV dvr 4 channel and I have lost the program for the remote management. I have the viewer program but not the other, can anyone help me get it?

Thanks Tim

Robert Tabbara at 214-256-5985 was very helpful in recovering the lost password for my Gen IV 16 channel stand alone. If I ever need more cctv equipment, I'll be sure to look him up, Tks

I have a GEN IV G4-764 and am wondering if there is a website where I can download appropriate firmware. Anyone knows, please let me know.
Thanks

i have been getting alot of emails about this system and let me say,, i will NEVER buy this foreign crap again. support is weak or non-existant. there are no firmware updates to fix bugs in the system (there are alot of bugs). youre lucky if you can even find the manufacturer. my new system is from china (yes, i made the same mistake twice) and it is "marginally" better than the GENIV. it is still riddled with bugs and the manual which was originally written in chinese has been translated first in ancient hebrew and then retranslated into english by a russian immigrant. i am currently looking for a used Pelco system.
here is the link to the pdf manual and the viewing software. i cant answer any of the password questions better than anyone on this blog, so if youre locked out, i suggest you scroll up and call one of those kind security people that have offered their assistance. i will keep the link active for as long as possible, and i would suggest that someone else copy all those files for reposting inn case i fall off the face of the planet. my guess is that the manufacturer will never show his face (its probably the same people who made my new system) and these are likely the only digitized copies around.

if you have any problems with this link feel free to drop me a line.
good luck,

I got jpeg2000 and about resetting password. This worked on mine:
"Follow these instructions to reset the master password on the JPEG2000 and JPEG2000 H.264 Dual Codec series DVRs. Press the menu button on the DVR. When prompt for a password, press the follow buttons on the DVR in this order: STOP --> PLAY --> STOP--> SEARCH --> PTZ --> PIP -->1 --> 2 --> OK (or Enter). You will be logged into the DVR as the administrator. Select Configuration from the System Menu. Then, select password Setup from the confuration menu. The password setup screen will display your current password."
Have fun.
