DVR Software compatable with existing equipment.

I have a 8 of these (VOM2000):

And a few IP cameras several are axis (i'm unsure of the model)

 

The rest are Cathexis.

Due to the unreliability of my DVR hardware, I am looking to build my own dvr with better hardware and some redundancy. The one thing I'm unsure about is what to do about the DVR software.

 

Any suggestions as to what software is available that supports both IP and Analog cameras. From the pictures it appears the analog cards are using philips chips, if needed I can pull a card and take a more detailed picture. I also suspect the ip cameras are also rebranded.

 

I'm looking to go this way rather than buy an all in one unit as I suspect it will be less expensive since I already have the analog cards.

 

Thanks

You should look into GeoVision. For every hybrid system (analog and IP cameras) I use their software and DVR cards. You'd have to replace the existing board more then likely with any route you take. Most of the software out there is proprietary and only made for a specific DVR card. You'd also need to buy a 3rd party IP camera license for the AXIS cameras if you went with GeoVision.
