Hi everyone. The local shop has a sale on these WinBook cameras,

Micro Center - Computers and Electronics

Was able to connect fine to the system, but when I look at the multi camera view, I get no video. When I go to the image menu or overlay menu, everything comes in just fine. Is there something that I am doing wrong?

at least provide a hint has to what you are trying to connect to...if to an nvr, the camera is likely not providing a proper substream that the nvr needs for the matrix view

also garbage cameras not worth anywhere near 30 dollars...

I see. I'm trying to connect it to my Dahua NVR. I just wanted a cheap, low-res camera I could drop in different parts of the house, and for the $$ it fit the bill. When I look at the connection, I don't see anything about the substream, but it does appear to have substream settings.
 
Oh, and if it helps, it appears that this is a foscam, model FC1405PC
