Last Updated 21 hours ago

Use this article if your NVR/VMS (the recording system) shows only one of your screens, or only one channel.

What you see

What to do

Try these in this order.

  1. Change Camera Mode to Multiple cameras: one camera per source, each with its own port.

    Camera Settings with the Camera Mode choice Multiple channels or Multiple cameras

    Started Cameras in Multiple cameras mode, with one row per camera and its own port

  2. Add the other sources by their RTSP URL. For Hikvision, use Custom Protocol.

  3. Combine the screens into one picture with a Wall. Then the NVR/VMS needs only one channel.
