Surveillance cameras are a vital part of your home’s defense. To make sure you choose the ideal system, you need to decide how you want your system to store video. Some Logan homeowners are okay with motion-triggered clips stored in the cloud. But if you’re looking for more, like 24-hour recording and on-premises storage, you should look into different options.

If you never want to miss a thing, Vivint Playback DVR is an exceptional option. Explore this service and why it’s a valuable addition to your Logan smart home.

What is Vivint Playback DVR?

Vivint Playback DVR is an optional feature that offers up to 10 days of round-the-clock recording. You’ll enjoy all the footage you need with a few additional bonuses. Here are standout features:

  • Vivint Playback supports up to 12 cameras
  • Activity-triggered markers let you efficiently find and share the most important moments
  • Footage is stored directly to SD cards built into your cameras and is easy to access with the Vivint smartphone app
  • Vivint Playback is compatible with the Outdoor Camera Pro 3, Doorbell Camera Pro 2, and Indoor Camera Pro
  • When opting for Vivint Playback DVR, you gain features like upgraded doorbell camera chimes and indoor camera sound detection  

The 10 days of 24-hour continuous recording are made possible through Vivint’s specialized firmware and efficient compression techniques. You get the local storage you want, without needing to purchase a separate hard drive.

Vivint leads the way in smart home camera innovation

Local camera storage and 24-hour recording are evidence of how Vivint leads the smart home industry. Imagine gaining access to 24/7 footage and creating clips to share with family members or the authorities directly from your smartphone. It’s possible with Vivint, but there’s more. 

Customers appreciate Vivint cameras for many reasons, including:

  • Smart Deter. Choose cameras that actively discourage crime. If an intruder ventures near your house or car, an audible alarm and red LED light ring will trigger.
  • Spotlight Pro. You can arm your outdoor camera with a powerful spotlight that actively follows strangers. Personalize it with different emergency light modes or adapt it to shed light on your property.
  • RADAR functionality. Vivint’s new Outdoor Camera Pro Gen 3 utilizes RADAR to pinpoint individuals and their proximity to your vehicles and home.
  • Impressive zoom. Take a closer look without losing the picture clarity. Vivint’s exterior camera with a 4K sensor gives you 5.3x digital zoom.
