    Hi, I use the nvr to record to, still a bit of a beginner but as said have 9 cams all working ok until trying this one !!! Are you saying nothing can be done? How are others using the cam for alarm/flashing light thing it’s offering? Many thanks

    When to use an 8mp camera

    Thanks for all help, If I set up my dads house he will probably only have about 4 cameras, so If he had a decent amount of storage ie 6tb would an 8mp work ok. I mean are you saying that apart from size of storage there would be no negative to doing this??
