Thanks @eggsan for this hint!! Seems to be a great project, didn't do the trick in my project though. In my case, as it's a closed system, I just used an earlier version of Raspian and everything went smooth. Sadly no updates possible for that machine...

Any updates on this project? It seems dead since two years and doesn't support the actual raspian anymore... Anyone gots an idea for an alternative?

Now I'm getting it.... :clap::clap::clap:

The best outdoor home security cameras of 2022 | CNN Underscored Quality media at its best... And home users think that they get a good camera :facepalm:

Just saw this in the 2nd read.... Tell us more about the reason to use such a narrow lens?

And there are no desktop drives listed here: https://dahuawiki.com/NVR/Basic_Setup/Compatible_HDDs So I would ask the seller of the XVR or try a new supported drive....

Mine is about half a year old and looks like this: I cannot promise that with a new HDD it is going to be good, but yours is a desktop drive, has lots of read and seek errors and a strange value for the hour count... But chances are good and i would give it a try (myself I'm always using the...

Honestly, the XVR7116 is made for up to 32 cameras with up to 8MP and 128MBps incoming bandwith, so I hardly believe it struggles in your configuration with about 16MBit and 8 FHD cameras.... It's running at 10-20% of it's total power, which is why I pointed to the HDD... If this one is to slow...

I'm just trying to help ;) So when the systems gets only laggy if it's recording, there must be something with the components included... One thing is the HDD, the other could be the motion detection... You could try to switch on permanent recording and disable the MD.... I had the netsdk...
