Compression of Video?

[Karlwyatt]

Am i missing a variable somewhere for compression? i have a 1TB hard drive in my ZM box and within less than 24hours 4 cameras have it at 46%. I am looking at replacing a propritary 12 cam system with ZM but with my old system i could get 2 months of video without deleting the archives on 2TB. Am i missing something?

Could you post what your settings are set to? The settings for your cameras, monitors, resolution saved perhaps? Under the options link, what are your settings under the Images tab?

EDIT: Also, don't forget to include if what type of your monitors, (Record, MoDetect, etc).
