where it says
# Recording Rate : 16~30fps (NTSC), 12~25fps (PAL) (depend on CPU speed and channel)
# Display Rate : 30 fps (NTSC), 25fps (PAL) Video Resolution : 320 x 240 Compression Format : MJPEG (software compression)

does that mean in total? so 25 / 4 for each camera? or do you reckon thats the fps per channel?

Thats total fps for the combined cameras. Also with switching and resync, you can expect when using all four inputs ~2.5 FPS on each camera.
