Yes, you can get your DVR to record video from a security camera and it's a great option particularly because DVR's have a much greater memory capacity. DVR's can be used with USB or video output cables.

How do you choose home security cameras?

It's going to depend on your specific needs and area of coverage. If you need to cover three areas that are far apart, you might need three cameras. If you need to cover those same three areas and they're all beside each other, you may only need one. After you know your areas of coverage, which for most people are: entrances and exits. It's going to come down to the environment the camera will be in and the time of day it will be operating. You can get some good security cameras for cheap on amazon, ebay or southern circuits. Good luck.

How do you transfer movies from DVr to computer?

You cannot move a file inside the DVR unit to a computer. But you can record output from the DVR onto computer's hard drive. Buy a USB or PCI 'video capture' device for your computer so that you can connect DVR's analog output (S-video, composite or component for video and RCA or red and white audio) to the video capture device. While a movie is played on the DVR, the computer will record it through the video capture device.
