Solved! Can a DVR made for security camera be used to record tv shows?

[hmunster123]

I found a working(turns on)Samsung SDR-B74303n DVR. I googled it and it is used for recording security camera views. Does anyone know if I could use this to record tv? Any advice appreciated, there is no remote for this.

Don't think so.
Only has analog video and mono audio inputs. It would be hard to get a compatible signal to it from consumer gear.
Doesn't seem to allow you to view only one input at a time so you would have a 4 camera split screen.
No timer.
Frame rate may be too slow.
