PROBLEM WITH SELECTING CHANNEL TYPE FOR DVR

[UFO504]

HI GUYS. I WAS WONDERING IF ANYONE CAN HELP ME ON MY NEW AMCREST 1080P 8 CHANNEL DVR. IM TRYING TO USE THE DVR (TRIBRID)FOR MY IP FOSCAM CAMERA BUT WHEN I GO ON THE CAMERA SETTING ON MY DVR, I CAN ONLY CHOOSE CHANNEL 7 AND 8 TO IP. CHANNEL 1 TO 6 CAN BE CONFIGURE TO COAXIAL AND/OR UTP BUT NOT IP. DO ANYONE KNOWS WHY?

Having the exact same issue. Any updates or anyone know? I found no mention of this limitation in any of the product information.

I have 3 Coax cameras (all working great) and 3 Foscam cameras (2 connected). Would really like to get the 3rd and maybe a 4th.

Hello jchanson,

ON the tribrid HDCVI DVR, you can only use two channels for IP cameras. This is always the last two empty channels on the DVR.

Thanks for the reply. Please make sure that a comment gets added to the documentation and web information. This is very disappointing.

Hello jchanson,

Thank you for the feedback and I will certainly pass this on to the concerned department.
