Phone support is terrible.

Once again I've had to contact phone support and once again: 1. Can't understand the tech... 2. Can't answer my question 3. See #1 I've been given a name and extension number that is supposedly in the U.S. I call, enter the extension number, and ALWAYS get a message that the person is not available....

Event shows at the end of recording

I have 2 cameras, both set for motion detection. Why does an event display at the very end of the recording. The recording may last 45 seconds, but the actual event shows at the 41 second mark. What settings do I need to change? (shouldn't the actual event be displayed much earlier in the recording?...

Time Line showing events, Event tab not showing same events

So, I have multiple "blips" on the Record tab but those same blips are not showing up on the Events tab listings. Amcrest Surveillance Pro, IP3M-943, Windows XP desktop.
