tomcctv 190 Posted August 17, 2022 Hi sounds like a pre 2014 dvr you have converting vga to hdmi could be your problem as they never work right usually a tv with hdmi will also have vga but it’s marked up as PC connection take a look on tv menu when you press the source button PC will be listed if it has one as far as spending more money on an old h264 vga unit that’s over 8 years old you will find it cheaper to change recorder than spending money on converters Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
