Starting fresh using a box built with Aver NV7000H card?

[ICUUCME 0]

Hey guys.

 

I have a system I built using a quad core processor, few gigs of ram and a few TB worth of hard drives.

 

I've been using 8 regular cameras plugged into an Avermedia NV7000H card.

 

I tried adding new additional Vivotek IP cameras to the system but the Avermedia software won't allow me to add additional cameras. I can only use as many cameras as the card allows, which is 8.

 

I need to add approximately 12 additional IP cameras to the 8 existing hard-wired cameras I already have.

 

Is there a way I can continue using the NV7000H card with other software and add more cameras?

 

What is the best way to proceed using the current server? I also need to be able to view the camera's via Android and iPhone.

 

Thanks for everyone's expert opinion, I really appreciate it.
