Thanks PB&J, Ive ordered them and will just reduce the settings and try to make the best use of the streams. I also have them integrated into Home assistant, so Ill move that to query the cameras directly and just keep the NVR for recording. if it all sucks ill just update my NVR to a newer...

Ah, I see you're right, I never thought of that aspect. The idea was to add them as additional cameras. Is that due to the NVR not having all the separate POE plugs on the back or due to the chipset on board? Looking at the hikvision site the fastest you can get is 320 Mbps

Hey Guys, I've been looking to update a couple of my camera to the G2 series that have the human/vehicle classification to reduce the number of false motion alerts but I'm not sure if my NVR will support it and I have no idea how to find out. Im guessing if the camera is initiating the record...

Thanks guys, I have tried the HDD sleeping - Off option (didnt think of that) and and just doing a firmware update now. The hard drives are just ones I scavenged from around the place, a 500gb and a 2tb and everything on the HDD checking page shows as OK. If that doesn't work i'm 'Borrowing' a...

Hi Guys, I have a issue with what I think is my Hikvision NVR where when it detects motion it will start recording, get the first couple of seconds, then freeze for about 10 seconds and then record fine for the rest of the video. I have 2 cameras connected to the NVR over the LAN, both suffer...
