[Brian H]

Wired or wireless?
Does the TV have any Video Inputs?

[retired65]

they are wired cams, and yes there are video inputs on big screen tv

[Brian H]

I will see what I can find out for you.
Was the Video processor we talked about in a different thread unacceptable?

Look for "Video Quad Processor" or "Video Quad Splitter" etc.

This one is pretty cheap and has a remote control.

dave w; That one looks even better than the one I found previously.
Would maybe need some BNC Male to RCA female adaptors if the cameras have RCA connectors.
From what I have seen. Security cameras frequently use BNC while some of the end user cameras use RCA.

Brian, I did not realize you had steered OP to a Quad, sorry, did not mean to step on your help.
Yeah, I have not seen a Quad with RCAs but I'm sure they are out there. The link was one of the least expensive Quads I have seen, but after buying BNC to RCA adapters at Radio Shark maybe the cheap Quad will not be so cheap.

For adapters like this, AllElectronics usually has excellent prices, e.g.,

No problem.

Was awhile back and the thread went cold.

MCM where I saw the quad may also have had the adaptors.

Retired65; Does the TV have an RCA Composite Video Input?
