Product Description
PXD-8204-HYK4MP: 4-channel hybrid DVR for mixed-format analogue jobs
The Prolux PXD-8204-HYK4MP is a 4 channel hybrid DVR built for analogue HD estates where camera generations get mixed on site. It takes HD-TVI, AHD, CVI and CVBS inputs on the same recorder, so a refit doesn't force a full camera swap.
Resolution and mode behaviour
Recording tops out at 4MP Lite. The mode toggle matters for spec'ing a job:
- 1080p Lite disabled: 4MP Lite, 3MP, 1080p, 720p, WD1, VGA, CIF
- 1080p Lite enabled: 4MP Lite, 3MP, 1080p Lite, 720p Lite
Main stream caps at 4MP Lite / 15fps; drop to 720p or WD1 and frame rate rises to 25fps (PAL) / 30fps (NTSC), so plan channel frame rates against the resolution you actually need per camera.
Compression and bandwidth
Compression runs H.265 Pro+, H.265, H.264+ and H.264, cutting storage load versus older codecs. Dual-stream operation keeps a full-quality local recording separate from a lighter remote-viewing stream — useful where upload bandwidth on site is limited.
Audio
Audio capture uses G.711u at 64 Kbps where a compatible camera or mic input is fitted, giving synced audio/video for evidential recordings.
Fit for purpose
A 4-channel hybrid unit like this suits small commercial or retail installs where storage efficiency and legacy-camera compatibility outweigh the need for high channel counts or 4K throughput.

What is the maximum recording resolution?
Up to 4MP Lite on the main stream, recorded at up to 15fps; lower resolutions such as 720p or WD1 can reach 25fps (PAL) or 30fps (NTSC).
Does it support audio recording?
Yes, using G.711u compression at 64 Kbps when a compatible audio-capable camera or input is connected.
What's the difference between 1080p Lite enabled and disabled modes?
Disabled gives access to 4MP Lite, 3MP, 1080p, 720p, WD1, VGA and CIF; enabled restricts the set to 4MP Lite, 3MP, 1080p Lite and 720p Lite.
