Hey all, have a location that I am trying to modernize. Have a number of old NightOwls in a building that are AHD analog. I realized too late that the Axis 240q does not do AHD and now am looking for another solution to get them to an IP based system so I can pull into tools like Blue Iris.

Am I able get multiple streams of output from a Dahua (Empire) Penta Bird DVR to pull into another NVR?

Seems like the cheapest option for what I need that is easy to get my hands on here at least. Just wanted some confirmation before I order it.
