So I ended up getting two NVR's because the seller on DH-Gate wouldn't cancel my order even when he told me they didn't have what I ordered. I originally ordered a 7716NI-E4/16P and when he stated he was out, I went to eBay and bought it, canceling my order with him. He ended up sending a 7732NI-E4/16P instead, so now I have two NVR's and I must decide which one to use. The 7716NI-E4/16P was manufactured 8/2015 with a firmware of 3.3.4. The 7732NI-E4/16P was manufactured in 6/2015 with a firmware of 3.3.3. I have 16 cameras (12 3mp and 4 4mp). I know there is one main difference between the two NVRs and that is one supports 32 channels (200Mbps) and the other supports 16 channels (160Mbps). I have a couple of questions:


1) Are there any major differences I need to know about between 3.3.3 and 3.3.4 that would affect my system?
2) Are there any known compatibility issues with 3.3.4 or 3.3.3 with 4mp cameras (DS-2CD2042WD-I)?
3) What features were added in 3.3.4? FTP, Email, Push notifications, etc....
4) Do both work with i-vms-4200 as Im placing the NVR in a closet and want to control it through the PC/MAC software.
5) Will both NVR's work with Chinese version and Intl version cameras? 12 of mine are Chinese and 4 are Intl.


Thanks guys. I'm installing this system next Sunday and Monday, so I'm getting excited.

1) No
2) 3.3.4 works fine and has H.264+ (which is nice)
3) E-mail still broken in 3.3.4
4) Yes
5) Yes

Update the 7732 to v3.3.4. Then sell one to someone you know for cheap!

Is there any way to fix the email notifications.

Thanks! So go with the 7716 then? I can't update the 7732 because its Chinese and it will brick it.
