jackg164 0 Posted July 16, 2017 Hello! I bought 8 TurboHD cameras (5x DS-2CE16D1T-IR, 3x DS-2CE56C2T-IT1) and one DVR DS-7208HGHI-F1 The problem is that DS-2CE16D1T-IR cameras doesn't work, I always get no video no matter the channel I connect them to. However using the same video balun and power supply with DS-2CE56C2T-IT1 cameras works perfect. Does anyone know if they are not compatible, or what is happening? As both the cameras and the DVR are TurboHD I think it should work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Securame 0 Posted July 16, 2017 3 years until your first post? DS-2CE16D1T-IR are 1080p/2MP, while DS-2CE56C2T-IT1 are 720p/1MP. DS-7208HGHI-F1 is a 1MP unit, it does not record 1080p/2MP. But wait, there is a solution! Somewhere on your DVR menus you have an option to turn on "1080p Lite". That will make your DVR understand the 1080p cameras, while it will record them at just 1MP (960x1080 instead of 1920x1080). You need firmware 3.4.8x to have the 1080p Lite option. ps. You should have asked BEFORE buying, and would have been told to get a 2MP DVR. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
