Yes, each camera is associated with the relevant micro phone . So as you highlighted, camera 1 audio 1. Cam 2, audio 2 and so on. Thanks

Hi Before I call ghost busters…….. I need some help with my XDH16 DVR (new) Audio side only. It has 4 audio outputs. I have 4 microphones connected (new) I’m using it on remote access (RAMS software) When I first install it, only one of the audio channels was working. Thinking that the...

Yea, you're soo right, I should have updated you guys on this as you were so helpful. So heres the deal, All is up and in place, I fired up the DVR and got a split screen of 16. I've only got five camera and 4 mics. Of the five cameras, 3 were working and 2 had nothing. All were B& W . Of the...

@ exicited, I went with the samsung SCD 1020 pd, can't comment any more as haven't had the time to install yet - but feeling confident they'll be up to the job E999 & sparkymarka are the boys in the know, as in comparison, I'm just playing. Once it's up and running I will leave feedback, if...

Oh sh*t I've just checked and I've been sent a Qvis 12v - 5A - 4way, was sure I asked for 8 way as need to run 5 cameras. Not that it matters, plenty of power, I'll just double up on one of the splitters out of the transformer. And 'yes' sparkymarka your info has helped, alot, no wonder...

If the cat 5 proves problematic, I'll go the shootgun cable as you have advised - cheers mate.

Thanks for looking, but here's plenty of this sort of this cheap chinese stuff on ebay. And I won't be blameing you as I wont be going any where near it! LOL My limited advice from what I've learnt and much reading, is to go with Branded goods and Korean electronics. Good brands have a rep...

Thanks sparkmarka for the ebay item no, nice and cheep too. & Thanks E999 for the heads up to.

@E999 They've be fine with the samsungs cameras you suggested tho?

Cool, 'Top Tip' . About not doubling the video. I mean. Do ou know Whats the cheapest quality baluns I could get? Any particular make? No problem if you don't I know you get what you pay for, but I've seen 'em from a few quid to a tenner each. Cheers

Bli-me, cant get rid of me me. But do you use cat 5 cable or shotgun cable. As this is a domestic installation, I want to use cat 5 for reasons of colour, the diameter of the cable as a few runs will be running along together and I'd rather not use trucking. Also one of the runs is 25 m (or...
