you're right.sorry about that...its an eyeonet card , 4-30 and I am adding another and using eyeonet software

I have a 4ch card installed and working . If I add a second card, will I have to re-install the software? The card is identical to the first

thanks for the replies...I think he knows they are fake. I emailed him and told him so. His reply was in very bad english and basically said he did not know what I mean. Geovision confirmed it to be fake. Soooo...I decided to go a different route. Proving it was a fake was going to be tough..instead, I just opened a claim saying that the item received was different than the one in the listing. Hopefully, I just pay return shipping and then get my money back. It bothers me that this guy will continue to do this to other people.

lol..I know now but how many is this guy conning? Ebay is a mess, in order to get my money back, I have to get an authorized dealer to say its a fake in writing. I'll have to make a few calls I guess

here are a few pictures...pretty blatant to sell this as a true geovision

Is there someone on this forum that could look at the pictures I took and verify that this is a fake? I would need this in order to get my money back?

yes, I am 99% sure this is a fake....I didn't get an original box and now that I look closely, the software is a burned copy

The old cameras are called ipointer and work fine...the new ones don't even have a name...the box says model sg-5920 by sgb. I have tried pretty much everything as far as swapping cables, etc. No matter what I do, when I connect any of these new cameras to the card using any cables that were connected to the old cameras, I get these lines. The old cameras are crystal clear. I am a computer technician by trade but new to cctv. This is an upgrade for a friend of mine. I put in what was suppose to be a geovision 800 16ch card a week ago and all seemed good until I install these new cameras.Now ,the more I learn, the more I am thinking this card is fake...I have spent many hours researching this card and it does not look like a true geovision...should it not say "geovision" on the card ? I know I am going off track here, but I wouldn't have even suspected a fake card if it were not for the problem with these cameras. Lol, this is not going to be a profitable job.I told the guy he was getting a geovision card and some new cameras for x amount of dollars. I should have known better than going with ebay

thanks for all the help I'm getting. The cameras all have separate power supplies...I have changed power supplies with same results. When I disconnect all the other cameras and plug in the new ones one at a time, I get horizontal rolling lines on both.For some reason, these cameras are picking up some kind of interference, but only when plugged into the card. I have all the cameras sitting in front of me to test so it cannot be a cable problem...I am using 1 cable to test all

I connected the camera directly into tv input using an rca adapter and I see no flicker , great picture....what is up with this?

yeah you're right....I have bought low end cameras from a dealer and had no problems...I guess I'll return these one's. I thought maybe there was something I was doing wrong...thanks alot for the reply

I am new to this forum and very impressed by the knowledge base. I have several cameras installed on my stand alone system. Recently, I bought 2 cameras(ebay) under $100 each and both are exhibiting horizontal lines of interference. I tried new power supplies and switching cables with my other working cameras. I am still getting interference on these 2 cameras. I am using a Geovision gv-800 ...has anyone else had any problems like this?thanks
