About this app

The iDVR-PRO Viewer app for Android lets users connect to one or more iDVR-PRO CCTV camera DVRs. iDVR-PRO surveillance DVRs are supplied by CCTV Camera Pros. Users can view their security cameras live from remotely over the Internet using WIFI and cellular Internet connections on Android cell phone and tablet devices.

The latest model iDVR-PROs are hybrid and can support standard definition analog CCTV cameras and the latest HD security cameras (AHD and HD-TVI supported). 720p and 1080p video resolutions are supported for AHD and HD-TVI cameras. Each channel of the DVR may be configured differently using CCTV, AHD (720p or 1080p), and HD-TVI (720p or 1080p).

This mobile app for Android also lets users search and playback recorded surveillance video footage from the DVR's hard drive. User can access video footage on the local network where the DVR is located or remotely over the Internet. There are two ways that users can search and play back recorded video. The first option is to access the search menu where users can select a date and time to being video playback. The second method is to search the DVR's log for events such as camera motion detection or external alarms (such as PIR motion sensors and magnetic door / window sensors) being triggered.

The latest Android app version supports remote audio surveillance. Connect a MIC-CCTV-02 from CCTV Camera Pros (or any other compatible audio surveillance microphone) to the RCA inputs of the DVR and listen remotely in the app. Multiple microphones are supported and select-able in the app.
