harry254 Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 Hi Guys, First time post here, so please be gentle! I'm looking for a decent upgrade from a AVtech 760 dvr. Currently have 2 cameras which give an excellent picture when live viewing but blocky when viewing the recorded picture on the 760. I've tried all the settings but had to go back to the VCR which gives much better recording quality although not as long! So what would you guys recommend as a decent upgrade dvr? Should i go for one which has h264 compression? which would give me an improvement in recorded picture quality for about Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
