Can I use my DVR to record images from my CCTV if so how?

Yes.

Most DVRs will allow inputs from either SCART or phono sockets. Yours might not of course. The CCTV camera is likely to have phono outputs, so just plug it straight in and off you go.

    Without knowing the models involved then its tricky to say certainly if yours will.

    Hi jowest31 ,

    If you want to record on your computer you need DVD Xpress.

    With DVD Xpress you can transfer your video to your hard drive and then edit it if you desire. DVD Xpress comes with basic video editing software. I got mine at Sam's for $59.95. They are cheaper now. You can look at one & read about it here – http://www.usb-ware.com/ads-dvd-xpress.htm

    I saw a newer model at WalMart recently. It was the DVD Xpress2. I can’t remember what it cost.

    You connect the composite output of your DVR into the DVD Xpress and connect the DVD Xpress to your computer via a USB cable.
