My unit constantly freezes up. It will seem to work fine and then I'll check to see if it's working properly and the power lite and record lites are on but the HDD lite is off and then only thing I can do is to unplug the unit, the remote won't work nor will the front panel controls. When I plug it back in, it starts up and goes right into recording as if it is working fine. It does this very often now. I tried reseting the system and initializing the hard drive.

You have to hook it up to a tv monitor and change the settings through the menu. It will originally include a password just to get you on, then you will immediately have to change it. After you do that you can access the menu where you can change the output settings
I believe there is a small hole on the face of the unit. power down the unit and incert a straighten paper clip to push the reset button, power up the unit wait 30 seconds and it should reset. if that does not work get back to me.
The manual says: You cannot enter MENU by forgotten password. - If you forget the password, you shall reset SHR-2160/2162/2080/2082 DVR to the values set at the factory. Keep pressing both the "MODE" button and the "PTZ" button on the left for 5 seconds, Keep pressing both the "MODE" button and the "PTZ" button on the left for 5 seconds. The password default is "4321".

It does the same thing to me....Can you imagine sitting there viewing the whole hard drive just to see what happen 39 minutes ago. This Samsung DVR is stink.....believe me ...Every problem I read on here,,Im have the same..
Try this it will work:
Press and hold "ch1 and mode" buttons at the same time and hold for about 45 sec. This will change yoursetting to VGA . You can fined this info in your user manual on page # 6-13 see note at bottom of page for "HIDDEN KEY" shortcut's
It's a good system dont give up.
If you are hooking your cameras into the SMO-151qn then you can use the pigtail cable to connect to the Shr-1040. Make sure the video out from the SMO-151qn goes into the video in of the Shr-1040. If there is a choice
use CH1. On the Shr-1040 hold down the mode button and press CH2 for about 10 seconds. The Shr-1040 should reboot. Once it comes up press the record button. After recording for a feww minutes stop the recording. On the SMO-151qn press the button on the front Live/Vcr. You should see the screen from your Shr-1040. IF you hit play you should see what you recorded.
Good Luck!
