hi, ive done this in the past but fiddly when im in that power supply as its quite tight

i was hoping there was a more perm fix

i did notice that the internal switch next to the red/black connectors doesnt actually do anything when flicked back n forth? not sure what this is for - maybe a reset switch?

based in midlands.

Hi it’s a qvis 16 port power supply like a cabinet type one 

Hi

im running an onyx 16ch apollo 4x with 15 2.4mp cams running coax cables using TVI.

issue i have is that after a power cut/reboot, a couple of cams never come back online

DVR sub window is blank and the log says No Bitrate (enc) and channel number

if i power cycle the DVR, all cams may come back on but alternatively another 2 cams will be offline.

is there any setting changes i need to make? The encoding is the same for all channels- bitrate type is VBR

Any advice appreciated.

Thanks.

VIPER-4K-8

£300 with 2tb hdd from europe (asked for quote withouth hdd) to £360 for a barebone unit in UK (i have 4tb hdd already)

Q4K-TUR-FW36

Sure will do. Will check and post what I find on here. Thanks.

Thanks tom great advice much appreciated will look out for a unit now.

Thanks Tom, so would I need to stick with qvis cameras for both ip and coax? Or am I able to mix camera brands with this dvr? Dvr looks like exactly what I need, will stick with same internal cams I think as u advised.

thanks tom. will take ur advice on hikvision. its for home, mainly external but some smaller cams internally on access points.

would i be able to go 4k with the hybrid solution? if so are there any u recommend?

thanks.

Hi

i currently have an onyx 4-in-1 16ch dvr running coax to 15 dome cams mainly external 2.4mp onyx hd cams over coax using tvi. Daytime pics are great, nighttime is ok, not the best.

my question is that what is the max camera resolution I can get from current setup?

contemplating upgrading to a 4k system but not sure whether to stick with onyx or switch to Hikvision as im seeing these everywhere now?

any advice appreciated.

Thanks.

Hi,

Im currently using MEye app to access cams and use remote playback. But sometimes the playback doesnt work at all remotely. Is there a better app (preferably free) to playback HD TVI cams?

Thanks.

Yes cam is at front of house and gets the sun from 12pm onwards so definitely enough light.

I have covered the cam and can hear the click and the leds come on. It isn't stuck in night mode

Hi the cam is definitely set to tvi. I can see the ahd option and there is an auto option too but defo set to tvi, but still B&w. If I hard reboot the dvr, it comes up colour but then eventually goes B&w. I may just change the cam to onyx.

Here is the DVR and camera...

Camera says on the box

HD-tvi 2.2

I'll check what cams are connected and attach pics

Hi,

I have upgraded my system on the weekend.

replaced Qvis zeus DVR with Onyx Apollo quattro

Got Onxy 1080p 2mp cams (work fine in colour!)

Got Qvis 1080p 2.2mp cams (work fine in black and white!)

These are TVI cams using shotgun cables.

I have tested all the Qvis and they all appear B&W. I have checked on the DVR and remotely and its B&W on both.

Can anyone help?

Thanks.

The Qvis Quattro 16ch 2tb is about £300, does anyone know how much roughly the equivalent IP dvr is?

Thanks. I want to use the existing coax save me recabling.

hi, still cant get this to work with all activex options enabled. it keeps asking for QuickTime to be installed.

yeah the current qvis software/interface is great. so i'll prob get the qvis quattro dvr. what HD cams do you recommend?

Is Hikvision just as good as qvis?

Thanks. There doesn't seem to be many qvis Quattro DVRs around. Are they new? I hear that Hikvision do good DVRs - are there any good?

Hi,

I am looking to add to my 5 camera setup. Currently I have 4 white varifocal external cameras with 1 black varifocal external camera. Not sure what make they are but i think they are 700TVL Sony CMOS. I have recording D1 quality at 6fps on each camera.

I am looking to add a couple more cameras but looking at HD cameras. I have a Qvis Zeus DVR. I have read here that i can use the existing shotgun cable if i was to get HD cameras but i am not sure if i need to change my dvr? I assume i would but any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Hi Keith,

Dvr is set to 34567 but the mobile app connects on 34599
