- It's the new and improved 2nd screen video! With our new firmware updates over the last year, users with PRO series NVRs will be able to use 2 individual screens with unique layouts. NOTE Non-PRO NVR users will still be able to follow this video and can have a redundant (copied) screen for their second monitor.

Best company ever to do business with. I've owned my system for going on the 2 years now and if I ever need a question answered i can be assured a tech will answer the phone and in my case dumb it down so I can understand. I wanted a commercial system and that's exactly what we received. Kudos to the Team at Montavue!!!
We definitely appreciate your compliments, Bill! If there's any content you would like to see posted to the UA-cam channel, let us know!
Thanks man, this really helps.
great job guys!! great system!!
Great, i've been thinking on how i will make this happens but now i got the solution, thank you so much
Thanks
can this be done to 4 monitors? using 64 channel Dahua DVR? each monitor with different cameras not redundant (the same)? Thanks
There are many types of 64 channel NVR and DVR from Dahua so you would have to be more specific. Our 6 series 64 channel NVR has 4 HDMI ports which means you can have 4 screens but that's not always the case. My best guess is that you would have at least 2 unique screens (not redundant) with a 64 channel.
Hey i know this is a basic question, but i cannot find the answer anywhere and it is going to be awkward to run a HDMI to where i want it so need to make sure it works if i do. I wondered if you can help. I want to connect my reolink nvr to 1 tv via HDMI. Can i control what camera is viewed from the TV via the TV remote, or would i have to have a mouse connected to the NVR to change the camera viewed etc? Thanks
Unfortunately, you will have to change cameras via the mouse. You could always try a wireless mouse, those work with Montavue systems, not sure about Reolink.
What if the second screen I want to hook it up to is a tv screen. Does this tutorial work for that or do I need to do anything different?
This tutorial is meant for all TVs and Monitors. As long as your TV has a VGA/HDMI input for the cable to the NVR, then you're good to go for it.
I have a Reolink RLK8-812B4-A NVR. Does this work with this NVR? I cant find information on the reolink Website about the Pro?
Can't say for sure since it's Reolink. I'd say attempt it and find out. I would assume a "Pro" model should be able to do two screens.
Unlike Reolink, we do have this information for our NVRs on our website, so let us know if you feel like switching teams, our tech support and information are always available.

I have 9664NI-m8 Nvr client want to see 3 screen. 2 screen spared ok but 3rd screen same same 1st screen any salutation./??
I'm not familiar with that specific NVR model, however, most of our NVRs are only capable of 2 unique screens as are many other brands of NVR. Our 6-series NVRs can do 4 unique screens but currently we have only 64 and 128 channel NVRs in the 6 series which might be too much for your situation.
What NVR's provide dual custom view monitoring?
Our 4 series NVRs which are 8, 16, and 32 channel units. Also, our 5 series and 6 series NVRs can also perform dual monitor views.
Check out our NVRs here: montavue.com/collections/nvr?sort_by=manual&filter.v.price.gte=329&filter.v.price.lte=
Any NVR with "AI" in the name will have dual monitor ability, like this example: MNR4208-8P-AI. If you're interested, give our sales team a call at (888) 508-3110 and they can discuss the pros of each NVR series and answer any other questions you might have.
i have question....can we connect the nvr to the subscreen wirelessly?
There is a way. You can use what's called a wireless HDMI transmitter. They can be a bit expensive but one end will go into HDMI 2 for the NVR and the other node will plug into your TV/Monitor and then they connect wirelessly. I'm not sure if they require seperate power or not but here's a link to those devices: www.amazon.com/s?k=hdmi+wireless+transmitter+and+receiver&crid=152XF4FRWEBMO&sprefix=HDMI+wirle%2Caps%2C213&ref=nb_sb_ss_ts-doa-p_1_10
We don't have any personal experience with these devices but it looks like the reviews say that they work great but some of them don't last more than 5 hours at a time so definitely check out everything before you buy.
My NVR have 2 HDMI and VGA, should i use VGA and HDMI or its ok with 2 HDMI?
Use both HDMI inputs for best results. Make sure you connect the monitor you intend to use as your 'main screen' to HMDI 1. Your sub-screen should go into HDMI 2.
Yo guys how can I move my mouse from main screen to sub screen on the net 4.0
You can only control the sub screen through the direct NVR interface (The monitor that the NVR is plugged into via HDMI). This means you'll need to physically be at the NVR station in view of the sub-screen monitor.
can u do 3 screens?
You can add an HDMI splitter that would duplicate your main screen to multiple monitors, however, you are relegated to just 2 unique screens from the NVR that you can customize camera views.
I'm just wanting to be able to see what going on outside from my house and from my work shop
If you have two distant locations, you could try using a tablet or smartpohone with our MontavueGO mobile app live view (Assuming you have wifi to your shop). The second option is if you had a laptop or PC out in your shop, you could use MontavueGO PC as a live view monitor. Unfortunately, running multiple screens directly from the NVR to two different rooms is a bit tougher since most HDMI cables can only go about 75 feet for max length. There is such a thing as a wifi HDMI connector but they're somewhat expensive (around $200) and they don't go very far.
This bothers me...VGA was phased out at least 10 years ago. How come a 5MPX or higher video recorder...requires a VGA input?? How come this tech is still so oldschool while at the same time being the latest and greatest?
All NVRs from Montavue have both HDMI and VGA outputs. The VGA is designated primarily for the second screen only so it is not techincally required, so you should still be able to get the full HD experience from your main screen by using your HDMI output.
