I just spent the whole 4th of July trying to finish this install. Everything went smoothly until I tried to add this UNV 180 camera. Video below!
Any suggestions??

 
They have good support if you get the good techs lol.. Outside of that, I am not impressed by my uniview either.. Sure not as good as my Dahua or Amcrest DVR/NVRs or Cameras.. Glad you got it. Just so you know in some cases I found that cameras will need to be added ONVIF setup and not the Uniview setup and I find that odd. Also for the ones that will add, if you know for sure the password and IP is correct reboot the NVR found that solved my adds a few times as well..

Well, it took me all day to add one camera lol. I had already installed 10 other cameras (UNV 4mp turrets) with no issues when I first installed the system almost two years ago. At first I thought maybe because it was a 180 cam and the NVR firmware was old, so I updated it and still nothing.. Maybe I was expecting too much, or maybe I've been spoiled with Dahua systems haha
