DS7618 - default to VGA

[allypally]

My NVR is setup with 2 video outputs. One to a VGA connected monitor, and the other to several TV outlets via HDMI. When I reboot the NVR, the menu's are displayed on the HDMI connected screens. I want the menus to display on the VGA connected monitor, which is located near the NVR. The HDMI screens are in other rooms.
Is there a way of forcing the Menu /login display to feed to the VGA connected monitor rather than the remote HDMI connected screens? At the moment, I have to disconnect the HDMI cable, then reboot which forces the feed to the one available source, then later reconnect the HDMI feeds.

On the dvr itself , go to system > live view>video output interface and set it to vga and remember to save. Works for me on a 7616NI-I2
I have been known to be wrong though , as the wife keeps reminding me.

Pierre, Thanks. I tried that but after saving and reopening the Video Output setting, it reverts back to HDMI as the default. The only way I have managed to circumvent is to disconnect the HDMI lead, reboot the NVR then reconnect HDMI lead after the reboot.
