Boogieman

Did you even bother reading the forum? Typical spammer..posts a link in the form of a question to push a product. We are not dumb here in the US china man.

Cheap analog cameras.. like 960H? If those would work, I'd consider that. It's for a vintage movie set design project I'm working on. It's less about the quality of the resolution and more about the monitors. Thanks. yes, those should work..

Any suggestions on what I can do to make it work? Thanks. Toss the monitors in the trash, its 2016..buy an large led monitor and DVR that is compatible with the cameras..Or buy cheap analog cameras..

Garbage camera...stop spamming.

Wont work...the samsung cameras are likely CVI or TVI...they cannot be directly connected to an analog monitor...

Its amazing that in 2016 and folks are still posting misinformation about IP cameras consuming network bandwidth. THIS IS NOT TRUE. If you home run the cameras to the NVR as you would with a traditional analog system then there is ZERO extra load placed on the system. If you connect the cameras to a POE SWITCH and the NVR to the same switch or to a cascading switch again there is ZERO extra bandwidth on the network. EVEN if you put the cameras on the network, a standard intallation of 8-16 cameras would not put a dent in a gigabit network.. Please stop misleading.

Log into the camera and change it...its there.

That is a rebranded Dahua IPC-HFW2100....any dahua should work as long as its resolution does not exceed the NVR's max...

No one mention any of those brands...what was mention is that 960h is GARBAGE. Do you think we dont have youtube in the US? Local installers really? are you recommending that to a guy who is trying to setup a system with 15 dollar dvr cards....come on be serious here. And YES ip is the way to go...its 2016 not 1996...

Buy first ask questions and research later? Why do you expect folks to help you when you cant be bothered to do so yourself.

Have you logged in a checked the firmware? Did you check the spec sheet?

thanks for advice, but can anyone forward me to where i can buy these IP cameras, i can only find these Wireless ones that go for $30 each, i want wired ones that connect to my 16port switch and i wanna use a PC to monitor them.... all help appreciated Then you havent read this forum or done even the slightest bit of research..

Have you seen the difference between analog D1 and 1080p cameras? Why are you so stubborn? its 2016 forget about this silly idea...start researching ip cameras...

why do you say that? what model is it? Seems to be an improper install...

Terrible..forget it..write it off as a loss....even if it worked properly which it wont, that only supprots vga cams.. You are talking about 10 year old technology...

If you are confirming bad things about IP camera systems, Boogieman gets very mad against you. Be careful. Nah...just like to point out china scammers who promote outdated 960h analog because their company sells it...also, like you sunnykim Keatano is a spammer for eagleview... You dont need to restart ip cameras every few days...what a joke...I have hundreds that hum along 24/7 perfectly without interruption...stop making it seam like there are zero issues with analog...every other post in the analog forum is an issue..this is a SUPPORT forum...that means people come here when there are problems...

Please please do yourself a BIG favor and stay away from low res 960h...its a joke..Ignore the folks from china who post here because their companies sell analog...

Its 2016...you are going backwards... Also, check power consumption on that old pc...you would be better of replacing it with a newer one and running ip cameras.. yea mate the PC has plenty of power, upgraded the Powersupply and few other bits and pieces, why do you say "its 2016 you are going backwards" correct me if im wrong, well i thought useing a PC would be much more reliable to use rather than the DVR units witch are so slow to use and always having issues, its only for private use not a full on Shopping center use lol.... but my real concern is if software is available to make it accessible using an App for the mobiles!!! When i said power consumption I meant that the old pc is likely a huge power hog costing you more to run than replace with a new efficient system. Using a pc is not the problem, I always used PC based vms, using a capture card with analog cameras on a new installation is the problem..

You do not have troubles if gone for analog systems. But please keep posting the message as there are many guys who keep promoting IP camera system might come to the rescue. STOP LYING YOU CHINA SPAMMER. Analog is garbage. There are plenty of posts with analog systems having issues. OP's problem is likely related to bad cables or cheap repeater. Sunnykim works for a company that only sells analog. Please dont take his scam advice.

Stop being cheap on the install. You will regret it later. Six months from now you might not like the DVR interface..then you are stuck because you dont have other options...Also dont buy no name crap because its cheap...one of the most important factors in a recorder or camera is the firmware..if its not stable or does not function properly then its worthless.

Whatever you do dont wire with coax. IF you choose to do analog (which is a bad idea in 2016) run ethernet and use baluns. This way you can easily upgrade to ip cameras...There are many thread discussing analog vs ip...go ip.

Decent cameras are not free, such is the case with software.

Silly idea....you wont get any usable images that way.

As others have stated, do you think this unit only supports low res ip cameras? Find the manual on google...you will see a list of supported cameras including 5mp cameras. That said, toss your d1 cameras in the trash and upgrade to 1080p...they are cheap...
