Are the old cameras compatible with this new unit?

They are not, unfortunately. The new unit does come with a camera

Is the plug for the old dxr-8 cameras the same as the plug for the new pro cameras? hoping i can just replace the camera on the wall and not the cord.

No, the plugs are different (as someone else mentioned) and it's a bummer they changed it. The new power connection is one of those circular DC-type connections. They even included a little tag on the new cable that says they improved it to something that was multi-directional and people wouldn't have a problem plugging in in the dark. Now we have 5 leftover microUSB cables in every room from the older DXR-8 model. :/

Can I have 2 monitors and 1 camera or 2 monitors and check on both cameras from both monitors?

I don't know for sure, but I would say yes. As long as both monitors are the DXR-8 PRO. As you can connect multiple cameras to one display, i would i suppose you could connect a different camera to each display. But I would imagine its a one to one, once a camera is connected to a monitor it wouldn't be able to be paired to another

Is anyone having issues with the charger? When I plug the monitor to charge i, I have to wiggle it and have it in a certain position for it to charge.

These monitors don’t like any chargers or cables except the ones that come with them. Have had them replaced under warranty because of the issue you described.
