Though this will be useful, it's worth noting that the data rate appears not to be increasing at all:
2MP x 30 FPS = 3MP x 20 FPS = 5MP x 12 FPS = 60 MPFPS
So since 30 FPS is faster than most need, they can afford to rob Peter to pay Paul.
But they will end-up deep in Arecont territory if they continue trading frames for pixels.

I'm curious if the increased resolution of the various HD analog formats will drive the market towards more efficient encoding at the DVR. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think any of the HD Analog DVRs are using Smart h.264 or h.265 encoding yet.
