Loss of picture quality on all cams

Recommended Posts

Hi all,

 

Not sure if anyone can shed a bit of light on this...

 

I have a system at home which an installer set up (but since not around)

 

Not sure if the cams are just analog or hd tvi.

 

But the dvr (Alien mega 208) has now started to display all of the cams in black & White and really poor quality. All of them! Its not the monitor because i can see the dvr through my pc too.

 

Not sure where to look first!

 

Any help will be much appreciated.....

 

Thanks in advance.

Hi. The alien is a bit of a pig for holding its settings.

 

It sounds like your dvr has gone to NTSC ..... Which will give the problem your describe.

 

Go into system settings and change NTSC to PAL

Hi, thanks for your reply...

 

It seems as though it is already in Pal, but doesnt allow to change anyway for some reason, although this was under 'camera setting' on the dvr menu, cannot see another setting for the dvr itself.

 

Thanks again.
