Kawboy12R 0 Posted July 22, 2013 If it looks like a duck, quacks like a duck, swims like a duck, and the manual says it's a duck... Plug it in and find out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kawboy12R 0 Posted July 23, 2013 Try connecting it to a proper computer monitor instead of a tv. It's possible that your TV doesn't support the resolution and/or refresh rate that the DVR is putting out. The chances against an HDMI port being used for something other than HDMI are mind boggling. It's an HDMI port with some kind of Chinglish screwup in judgement or translation. An HDMI port *IS* a "DIGItal OUTput" port for video and audio. Somebody just chose to describe it rather than use the label "HDMI" for some reason. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
