hi we are from same region

if your client only wish to display one channel on the LCD, use single channel active Video Splitter instead of GV loop card, GVloop is for 16 channel split (a bit wasted to use it to split 1 channel video).

Hello fellow countryman welcome to the board

I think your problem is due to the poor quality of the CAT5E cable, please make sure the CAT5 cable you use are from reputable brand and genuine. Good quality CAT5E cable should be okay Benjamin

The GV1120 is a combo card means it combine standard video capture card like GV800 with a DSP Video Realtime Card (GVDSP), and Realtime Audio Card (GVAudio) into one single card. The result will be realtime viewing with much higher resolution than GV800, but the recording result shall be the same (equally 100 fps/120fps).

I just installed at on our GV1240-16 system, the new feature that I found "more useful" is the remote viewlog. Ben

if you are cool with Linux OS environment, give a try to zoneminder (http://www.zoneminder.com), it runs on Linux, although I never tried before
