Flickering CCTV video

Flickering is a common issue that occurs with CCTV video, caused by a range of factors such as incorrect installation, equipment malfunction, power supply problems, or environmental conditions. While the issue may resolve independently, it is important to keep an eye on the footage as it may be an intermittent problem that needs fixing.

CCTV Camera not working at night

A common problem encountered with CCTV systems is the need for more images or video during nighttime recording. To identify the cause of this issue, a thorough evaluation must be conducted to verify the camera’s power supply and all wiring, cables, and connections are properly secured. Sometimes, the problem can be due to the infrared light’s malfunction, which fails to illuminate adequately even if switched on.

Faulty hard drives and recorders

A functional CCTV system relies on the seamless interaction of its interconnected components. For optimal performance, it is essential that both the hard drive and backup drive of the CCTV are functioning effectively. Nevertheless, connectivity problems, software errors, USB stick corruption, or memory-related issues can occur, causing problems with the hard drive or recorder.

Horizontal lines on CCTV video

Bright light sources shining onto a CCTV camera can cause horizontal lines in the video feed due to electrical interference of the light sensor. Solutions include reducing light, adjusting the camera angle, or using a dome camera with a dark shell.
