The DVR from my security system has gone Tango Uniform. The HDD appears to have died, so I replaced it. The DVR booted OK but wouldn't show all cameras, then slowly degraded from there until the DVR would reboot continually.
I managed to push through the most recent firmware update, now when the DVR boots it locks up on the activation screen when I attempt to enter a password. Swann tech support has been less than worthless. At this point I'm ready to shit can the DVR and get a new one, different brand of course. So for those home security gurus, do you have any recommendations for a replacement DVR? A quick review of Amazon it looks like I could easily swap in a new DVR.
8 channel
cameras powered separably but connect via BNC to DVR
old model is Swann 8-8075.
