Ok buy the hikvision from eBay ......if you think you will get any support from hikvision I can guarantee you won't The Swann from Costco .... I fitted one last Thursday 8 Chanel 4 camera 3mp tvi system ........... It was junk I have seen better 1.3mp images ..... Live 4 screen is low res till you click on one camera ......night image was crap ...... Well crap for what is available in today's market. Then there p2p goes to a server in shanzen city China ..... Only way past that is to not use the QR code setup and get your own static IP .......but that was reboxed and the guy is taking it back.

I don't understand why it would be pointless. I want ip for its various advantages, but I want analogue specifically so I can project a live picture without lip sync problems. It's pointless having a camera with two outputs .....too different formats. So instead the industry uses hybrid .....which is better ...... Analog HD were there is no lag and IP for for anything else ..... But even just think about that ....why not just analog HD everywhere But it does not change the fact that duel SDI/IP camera does not exist. You have not even commented on 4mp cvi system which is also analog and is much better than old SDI. Not that I have been aggressive (but I will be soon) It's no one fault SDI/IP duel does not exist .....it would just be pointless you can disagree all you want it will not change the fact. And I'm sorry you don't like the answer. I have given you a better option than your posted $2000 each SDI camera from China for something much better. Know my rant......... You are your church tech guy ....why on earth do you want $2000 on each camera .... Why do you want to spend church money on old tech SDI China crap. I think it's time your church found a new tech guy or at least get a CCTV company in to save themselves $1000s of wasted church money. Put it into prospective..... Camera you listed for $2k EACH camera you could install 8 X 4mp cvi cameras and new recorder and have all cameras live view with no lag. The money saving could stay with the church instead of wasting it

Hi. Remove hard drive then try to start it up

Kyle you are right you are limited Baluns .....powered routers ...... Poe Confused already

Hi. Hikvision from eBay and the likes will end up being a waste of money. Hikvision will not give you any support or supply updates for them to connect to the new hik connect or services plus they are old units on eBay. With that Costco system you will have the same problem as your dad it will not show full res on 4 display. Hi. Your monitor is only for viewing .......2-3-4-5mp is size of res stored footage to your hard drive........ it’s your recordings that’s important not the live view. Take a look at the qvis viper dvr uk based company and it beats the hik and Swann

It does not matter how many time you ask your question the answer is going to be always the same. No such thing as duel sdi ip camera because it will be pointless. Your advice from the other church tech is right .... except the hybrid side is not for the camera it’s for the recorder. Recorder will take either sdi cameras only or will take ip cameras only or will let you match sdi and ip cameras on the same recorder And not changing camera output like what you think . I asked why your looking at sdi and not cvi Just to save your church money I would not go for old sdi Cvi will work on your existing cables and goes from 2mp upto 5mp with no lag Camera you listed is nearly $2k each cvi 5mp start from $80 You asked a question I gave a answer you reply with over priced crap from China that is still not a duel sdi camera. Because they don’t exist. Again it’s the recorder that is duel (hybrid) not the camera. But since your fixed on old sdi tech good luck in your install ...... I would rarther save the church money than waste it

You need to get over it’s a ground loop problem and can I just point out your cameras are individual powered SO AGAIN not a ground loop. You need to sit and read the manual it only took me 5 mins of reading it to see what your problem could be . Displaying 4 cameras only ...... I’ll give you a clue A or B Don’t mention ground loop

Hi. You would be better just buying a new dvr...... that one is too old to do anything with

What about this - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/PTZOptics-20X-SDI-2nd-Gen-White-IP-Streaming-Camera-Uk-stock-Free-Shipping/332582745545?epid=12011239249&hash=item4d6f79f5c9:g:tiEAAOSwKJFapR5O What about it ....... it’s still not hybrid it’s only sdi And you will not get that to work on your dvr Also that eBay £1.200 -$1.800 is junk. ..... so your not interested in any advice Sdi vs cvi

20 years ...... You should know you would still get an image . With ground loop Ground loop would of also of been on last cameras Which dvr do you have ? What type of cable What length of cable What power to each camera

Hi. They don't exist. Will you be changing recorder over to HD as well as cameras ? SDI will not work on a standard analog recorder. I would look at cvi system and still have the live view

So we're do you think the 33v is coming from ??? No point you testing AC voltage on a DC system . Also all analog cameras put voltage down coax What dvr are you using

33v ...... How are your cameras powered

Still does not matter even if a ground loop problem you would still get a image. You don't test coax with AC Did you try moving a working camera to a port that is not displaying anything ??

Hi. Did all cameras work before ? IF groundloop was needed you would still get a image. Why are you testing coax with AC ? Have you moved a working camera to a none working port

Hi. It would be cheaper and better just to buy a 4 way AHD recorder and use that USB with those cameras will not work

Hi. Forget about building your own starlight camera easier to buy one. How long range to you need ? Deer in WV jump out from side of the road And if your looking at building everything with crap from aliexpress you will have problems Buy something that has a app and is networkable..... even better buy a small nvr and record everything

Hi. I would keep it simple ..... A good dash am like the black view Or if you want to build your own look at the dahua starlight cameras ......you will not need IR with starlight cameras

Hi. The dahua will make your hik look like a toy. And you can still use your existing cameras as well as 4K Storage is also good with being h265 which doubles your storage. Also with dahua you will get full USA and Canada support and cloud services...... No going back to a China server.

You have no clue do you ....... Another sales man idiot

People hate cold callers ...... internet versions are known as spammers And that’s all you are here for First post you deside to ignore forum rules. If you can’t be honest from the start and ignore conducting business Udemy Inc According to your ip has been around since 2009 And it only takes a sales man like you to damage a company with doing your sales via constant spamming of many forums. Udemy Inc I see you have a new executive Mr Kevin Johnson Do you think he would mind if I posted his home phone number or personal email here

You could do with looking at home DIYs images on this forum If that’s how you terminate cameras at your customers .... bit of a mess. Box for cable management is bigger than camera. Why have you used 2 BIG boxes where there is two cameras when one box would of looked better. The pro way would be to use the $5 dahua camera cable management mount box for the camera. I hate mess
