Hi everyone,
The Prime Security 8-channel HD-SDI DVR that came with our home seems to no longer be working correctly. The inputs for channels 1 through 4 have stopped working, and the DVR doesn't seem to want to record anymore (although I can see live views on inputs 5 through 8 ). So I'm looking to replace the DVR. I'm a newbie here, but I believe that I need to find a replacement DVR that is specifically compatible with HD-SDI, since I'm assuming the cameras that came with the house must also be HD-SDI since apparently my current receiver is an HD-SDI receiver (per the manual). I initially ordered a Monoprice HD-TVI DVR, but now suspect that won't work with my current cameras (haven't received the replacement DVR yet).
Am I thinking about this correctly? If so, does anyone have any recommendations for a reasonably priced replacement 8-channel HD-SDI DVR? I don't want to have to replace the 7 cameras that I have on the exterior of the house, which is why I'm assuming I need to be looking at an HD-SDI compatible DVR replacement.
Thank you!
