FAQ

Q: What are the options for using WolfRecorder and what is it for?
A: Something like that.

Q: Are there any artificial camera quantity limits?
A: No.

Q: How many cameras can WolfRecorder record?
A: This depends entirely on the performance of your storages and the architecture of the cluster you built.

Q: How is the available storage space distributed among the video captured from the cameras?
A: Equally within each storage.

Q: What regulates how long the video archive of each camera is stored?
A: It depends only on the size of the storage and video bitrate.

Q: How can I calculate how much disk space I need to record a certain number of days of video from my camera??
A: A 1Mbit/s bitrate generates approximately 11 gigabytes of data per day. Accordingly, a camera with a CBR bitrate of 4 Mbit/s will require about 44 gigabytes of data per day. So, do the math, just using multiplication.

Q: What is the recommended OS for installing WolfRecorder?
A: FreeBSD.

Q: I'm having problems during the installation process, how can I see what's wrong?
A: The full installation log can be found at /var/log/wrinstaller.log

Q: I'm having problems using the h265 codec, is there anything I can do about it?
A: Yes, we are aware of this issue. Please wait while we do some R&D, use h264 and stay tuned ;)
