Surveillance cameras are a vital part of your home’s protection. To make sure you select the ideal system, you need to figure out how you would like your system to store video. Some Palm Springs households are fine with event-based clips stored in the cloud. But if you’re looking for more, like on-premises storage and 24-7 recording, you should investigate other options.

If you don’t want any lapses in your footage, Vivint Playback DVR is an excellent solution. Learn more about this system and why it’s an important add-on to your Palm Springs home security system.

What exactly is Vivint Playback DVR?

Vivint Playback DVR is an add-on solution that gives you up to 10 days of 24/7 recording. It gives you all the footage you want and much more. Here are several of the standout features:

  • Vivint Playback is compatible with up to 12 cameras
  • Activity-triggered markers enable you to quickly search and share important moments
  • Footage is saved on SD cards inside your cameras and is simply retrievable via the Vivint mobile app
  • Vivint Playback is designed for the Outdoor Camera Pro 3, Doorbell Camera Pro 2, and Indoor Camera Pro
  • When opting for Vivint Playback DVR, you gain bonuses like indoor camera sound detection and upgraded doorbell camera chimes  

The 10 days of round-the-clock continuous recording are possible through Vivint’s proprietary firmware and efficient compression methods. You get the on-site storage you want, without having to buy another piece of hardware.

Vivint sets the standard for smart home cameras

The continuous recording capability and local camera storage are further proof of how Vivint continues to lead the smart home industry. Imagine enjoying access to 24-hour footage and creating clips to share with family members or the authorities straight from your mobile device. It’s a reality with Vivint, but you’ll get much more. 

Homeowners prefer Vivint cameras for these reasons:

  • Smart Deter. Get cameras that actively deter theft. If a stranger gets too close, an audible alarm and glowing LED light ring will trigger.
  • Spotlight Pro. You can outfit your outside camera with a brilliant spotlight that actively tracks trespassers. Customize with your choice of emergency light modes or simply use it to shed light on your property.
  • RADAR detection. The new Outdoor Camera Pro Gen 3 utilizes RADAR to locate individuals and their distance to your vehicles and home.
