re motion sensor on a cam setup - you need to not just turn on the cam, you need to start recording then. This was hard with tape systems years ago due to lag. It should not be too hard with a disk based system that spins all the time or that has a solid state chip based buffer. I wish I knew what was actually out there tho...

A baseball bat? LOL. May as well stay inside. When you see news stories regularly about 12, 13, 14 y/o kids shooting others, confronting these little scumbags with a baseball bat ain't a good idea.
Digital video recorders do have a buffer/motion setting. The unit records continously, but in "motion control" setting, it doesn't save to disk until there is a change in the picture. You can adjust the settings for different situations, so you do not miss anything. With this feature activated, you can extend recording time significantly.
