What are software digital video recorders?

digital video surveillance recorder Video compression can be either software or hardware based. Logically, software digital video recorders compress the video using software. This means that the PC's processor must do all the work to compress the image files.
 
Hardware compression means that the DVR digitizer boards implement the compression. Therefore the CPU will not have to do much work compared with software digital video recorders.
