to answer my own question... looks like you need special dedicated hardware recorder like an everfocus.

hi. HD need a HD recorder. so you cant add them to you NV5000. but you can add upto 5MP ip camera to your system.

Yeah, you're probably talking about SDI (serial digital interface) cameras, some of which use the trade name "HDcctv". It's a new-ish implementation of an older broadcast standard, and yes, it requires a different type of recorder. Note that these cameras don't go beyond 1080p, which is 2MP - as Tom notes, your system will handle IP cams up to 5MP.
