To resolve the "number of streaming channels exceeded limits" issue on HiLook DVR-108G-M1, follow these steps:

1. Reduce Active Streams – Check and close any unnecessary live view streams on connected devices.
2. Adjust Sub-Stream Settings – Configure sub-stream settings to reduce bandwidth usage by going to *Configuration → Record → Parameter* and adjusting frame rate and resolution.
3. Limit Simultaneous Connections – Ensure that multiple users or devices are not accessing the DVR simultaneously.
4. Check Network Camera Limits – Verify the maximum number of network cameras allowed under *Max. IP Camera Number* in the camera configuration settings.
5. Restart the DVR – Power cycle the DVR to refresh system resources.

If the issue persists, consider upgrading the DVR model to support more channels.
