    Hi all - I was wondering what the best Make setting is for BI and Andy's Dahua cameras?

    Please help me find an NVR...

    I currently have a Lorex N841A82 NVR (from Amazon), and 5 8MP cameras. I don't like the NVR, and would like to replace it. I previously tried Blue Iris (BI), but it killed my server-class machine (weak on graphics), so would like to avoid that route if possible. What I don't like about the...
