Use SmartPSS Lite and connect to any NVR you can access?
I'm watching cameras from 4 different NVRs in diff locations

He wants to see it on the actual NVRs screen. We've got a big monitor for him to watch it from the NVR

So when you say you have a NanoStation between your area, is that just something they use occasionally when they want to connect, or is it their full-time connection? If they’re on the same IP range and using the same gateway and there's no VLAN blocking access to your NVRs then they could just add your NVR’s cameras directly by using their IP addresses. When adding the device, it will show how many channels it has, and if they wanted to, for example, add channel 2, 5, and 8 from one NVR, and channel 4, 8, and 12 from another, they would simply load that NVR’s IP and choose the corresponding channel number for each camera they want to add.
But if they’re on a different IP range and still have full access to the network the other NVRs are on, they could pull the video using an RTSP stream. That even works over the internet if the RTSP stream is open. Since you're using Dahua, it might take some extra steps, but some models can use the Zero Channel over RTSP to display the entire system as one feed. The catch with that is it reflects what’s being displayed on the main view so if the display is in a 16-channel grid, that’s what they’ll see; if it’s in a single or 4-channel view, that’s what will stream too.

Thank you. I will give that a shot, yeah the nano stations are just specifically for the camera system and are in the correct range. Im going to try that and also will change the actual switch IP on the other NVRs to avoid IP conflict.
Well normally the IP on the POE ports don't matter.. I have changed mine but not because I needed to, I just did for number factor to know what camera came from what NVR..
When you connect from 1 NVR that has 10.1.1.x for an ip the NVR you are connecting it to from your local lan will be the lan IP address not your cameras Switch address.. What it does is connect to the PORT ID for that device or channel ID..
I don't normally use these camera on this NVR but I added them so you can see what I am talking about.. Using the single IP of POE NVR, I am using another NVR to pull in the channels form other NVR.. So you can see 10.0.0.225 is the IP and in the picture you can see 8, 10, 4 and 5 so they are pulled in from other NVR and can now be seen on this NVRs GUI just like they are cameras connected to local Network and not from NVR..

Interesting thank you, I'm sorry I'm having trouble understanding how you set up the recorders to show it like that.
