Thanks vector18, Works like a charm

I am trying to connect to my dahua Hybrid DVR via android. When It connects I can not get a feed on channel 1-4, it only shows a black screen If I connect to a non vid feed I see the time stamp and a black screen. If I change my vid input cable on the DVR to channel 5-8 I can see the feed on the phone. Am I missing something? It does the same thing on the apple software. Thanks

Can anyone suggest the cause of the grainy video on camera 3. This is only at night, The daytime video is clear. These are all the same cameras 700TVL Sony Effio-P /SuperHAD II WDR Bullet CCTV - 84IR - IR CUT - 2.8-12mm All ran the same distance with rg-56 solid copper. I have changed out the connectors and power connections, it made no change. (maybe something in the OSD settings I missed ? ) Camera 2 - I was told the IR CUT filter stuck if the IR lights are on and it is still dark. The IR is on, but it is very dark unless the contrast is turned way up. Is there a way to "unstick" the cut filter ? Thanks for suggestions?

blakem Thanks for the suggestion.. That camera is going to be changed out soon. I will keep that in mind.

lol Your right about not having 110v in the woods.. I am running solar power to a 150ah battery.. It was a real pain in the butt adjusting the OSD from a cell phone with crappy 3g spotty connection, but after 3hrs and a dead phone I was able to adjust a few settings. The noise is gone on cam 3 so I am real happy about that one.... ( thanks ) Cam 2 looks a lot brighter.. I turned the backlight to HLC. You can see it is trying to block out the streetlight. So I guess the IR in turn is a lot brighter. But I am still not to happy with the clarity. Still a little tweaking for this one. Cam 4 I didn't adjust yet .. It is not a Effio just a 700TVL Sony .. I did get the bug for a IP camera so I have one on the way...a Dahua SD6982A-HN 2MP. But this one is not going in the woods...

I was able to turn off the ATR after reading it may cause noise at night, I also found the NR setting and turned it on to high. I will have to see tonight when it gets dark to see if there is any change As far as the IR on 2, I have been working nights so I wasn't able to check at night, but I tossed a shirt over the camera and was able to see the lights on, they seemed a bit dim but they worked. I was also able to hear clicking when covered, would that be the cut filter ? I changed some settings on this one as well.. I will see in a few hours..

Thanks Kawboy12R.... I will recheck the OSD settings. Would the noise reduction settings be called something else ? Cam 2 only has cam 3 behind it , back to back, so no light is pointing in that direction. I think it is the cams IR that is shinning , just don't seem to be to strong or like you said darkening up because of that light. The light in the distance is the same streetlight in cam one, and it is always on. I tried to smack it a few times and it seemed to brighten up a little better that it was, I will try the magnet. I do know it is set to auto for day/night.
