Abstract

A video storage system includes a CVR manager including a software program of management run therein, at least two IP cameras connected to the CVR manager via the Internet; and at least two CVR units connected to the CVR manager via the Internet. The CVR manager assigns each of the CVR units to store a file of video data produced by a corresponding one of the IP cameras. Thus, the CVR manager distributes the video data produced by the cameras to the CVR units. Hence, the video storage system is inexpensive and highly expansible.

Claims

1. A video storage system including:

a CVR manager including a software program of management run therein;

at least two IP cameras connected to the CVR manager via the Internet; and

at least two prime CVR units connected to the CVR manager via the Internet, wherein the CVR manager assigns each of the prime CVR units to store a file of video data produced by a corresponding one of the IP cameras so that the CVR manager distributes the video data produced by the cameras to the prime CVR units and that the video storage system is inexpensive and highly expansible.

2. The video storage system according to claim 1, including at least two backup CVR units, wherein the CVR manager assigns each of the backup CVR units to store a backup copy of the video data identical to the copy of the video data stored in a corresponding one of the prime CVR units.

3. The video storage system according to claim 2, wherein the backup CVR units are connected to the CVR manager via the Internet.

4. The video storage system according to claim 2, wherein each of the backup CVR units is connected to the corresponding prime CVR unit.
