tomcctv 190 Posted March 9, 2018 Correction on NVR, the model # is NVR30432EP How many 4K cameras do you want to run on that recorder ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tomcctv 190 Posted March 9, 2018 12 4K4 2K Not on that recorder you can’t ..... max is 4 And if your looking at using 16 cameras ....... You can only use 16 X 1080p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SAF 0 Posted March 9, 2018 at 30fps, but 8 4K at 15fps should be possible as well Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tomcctv 190 Posted March 9, 2018 at 30fps, but 8 4K at 15fps should be possible as well No that’s not how it works But still you would of maxed out and that’s only 8 channels what about your 4 x 4mp Why buy a 32 way and only use less than half .... save your money and buy a 16way Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tomcctv 190 Posted March 10, 2018 Why are you fixed on 4k This will be a waste of money for an apartment complex 4 or 5mp will be just as good for you and will not use a lot of your budget for storage. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SAF 0 Posted March 13, 2018 Univew, not doing very well in China, also not active player in US too. I will suggest you go with Dahua or HikvisionSend me message, if you need more information. What does "not doing well" even mean? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SAF 0 Posted March 14, 2018 Look at the specs... The specs you pointed out reflect "Decoding" capability, not Encoding. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tomcctv 190 Posted March 14, 2018 Look at the specs... The specs you pointed out reflect "Decoding" capability, not Encoding. We’re on the spec does it say decoding encoding capability ??? The spec I posted is from that nvr ..... it also states the bandwidth Buy the 32 way it’s you who is wasting money Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SAF 0 Posted March 14, 2018 I'm looking at this: http://www.lowvoltagedirect.com/nvr-c-77_89/nvr30432ep-32ch-4sata-poe-nvr-p-2400.html The total "incoming" bit rate is 320Mbps; that should be more than sufficient for recording 12 channels at 4K. Also, this NVR supports H265, I can reduce the bitrate each camera needs for recording by almost half. And 32ch is not a waste of money, I need at least 16 with 2/3 additional for expansion.
