Paul or Matt Can you help me I have two cameras running onto same screen, rather than keep have to change channel with remote is there an adapter to use so I can see both boxes together please It may seem a very basic simple query to all you experts I hope there is Thanks Ann I haven't a clue sorry Ann, I have all my cameras on different tellys and different channels. I know you can get a camera switcher to switch between cameras and use the same channel handykam.com/product/3-camera-switcher-hk100209/But don't know how you'd get both on phone channel, You'd probably need to set up a DVR I think. Sammi or Karen might be able to help you with that

Anne Im not sure about it when it comes to viewing on a tv, but if you have a laptop/computer it is very simple by using an ispy capture device, you need one each for both cameras and then they go into the usb slots on the laptop, they come with a cd to download the software onto a laptop/computer and you can then view to camera feeds on the same screen and have them record on movement. Hope this helps, Matt might e ale to add to this.

i was just reading Sammi's answer on Pauls post, when i looked up and saw a blue tit on my sideview box disappeared in for a good 5 mins. i must keep looking to see how busy it gets, i can't put the camera on as the wire has to go between the shed and house about 70foot as the snow is about i have been having visits to other boxes as well over time.
I'm hoping this will be the year the sideview box is used it would be wonderful this is the 3rd year ive had it
tuesday another visit inside sideview box

everyone I am holding my breath ,and try not to rush things and get to excited to soon. This morning both blue tit came to visit the triangle house box,she wasn’t interested and just sat on the fence nearby. Not long after my side view box has had 3 double visits inside from the same pr this morning, I will be so so happy if my camera side view box is used. Here’s hoping I see more visits.
