    Alternative way of recovering HikVision NVR password

    If you would like, I can see if I can help on this. Export the XML file using SADP and send it to me. I will get you a file to import back in. Do keep in mind that after you export the file that you DO NOT turn off the DVR. If it is turned off then the XML that was exported will not be good...

    Thoughts on new DS-2DE2A404IW-DE3 4MP PTZ?

    This unit doesn't have pattern, patrol or smart tracking so not going to be able to program a scene. You can do presets but won't be able to have it do anything automatically. Just select the preset manually and it goes to that position. Park position works though for when you are playing...

    Can anyone identify this car?

    Definitely an Altima and not the Sentra. The headlights on the Altima are projectors. Sentra has the reflectors. The camera pictures certainly have the projectors.

    LTS (rebranded Hik) NVR not Working w/ DHCP

    3.4.96 will still require plugins. GUI 4.0 will use plug in also unless you have a firmware 4.1.65 and up. That firmware and any after that will have support for other browsers since it is not using the NPAPI. You can always use the client software. That may be easier if trying to liveview...

    LTS (rebranded Hik) NVR not Working w/ DHCP

    The issue is with the firmware. GUI 4.0 has bugs that includes issues with POE overload, freezing, rebooting and no resources. The fix for it is to downgrade the firmware to the 3.4.96 build 180912. After downgrading then make sure the unit is defaulted and start from scratch.

    DS-9664NI-I8 Unsupported Stream Type when viewing >4 streams

    Usually when viewing more camera's at once then it will be showing as "substream". When bringing up full screen then it will be in "mainstream". Substream will usually be at a lower resolution. The next thing to double check would be the encoding type. Having it on H265 or H265+ will save on...

    CCTV NVR on solar?

    Usually if you are using a mobile provider such as AT&T is that they will not let you open ports. Best thing to do is to use the cloud access on the Hikvision. That way if the IP address changes then you are still able to view your cameras because the NVR will update the IP address with the...

    IPC-HDW5442TM-AS-LED - Worth it?

    I have read the reviews on this. The question being the added feature of SMD which will be implemented. This camera doesn't have it now. Camera just has the basic IVS with face detection, perimeter protection, etc but not true SMD. So this camera with SMD be a better option than the...

    Thermal Cameras

    Does it seem like a lot of businesses are getting thermal cameras now for "fever" detection? I see that the Hikvision version has DeepInView (AI) and can pinpoint the temperature of a person's forehead at a rate of 30 people at a time. Temperature accuracy is at 0.5 degrees Celsius (0.9...

    Help need in deleting the IP Camera's on a Hikvision DS-7608NI-K2/8P

    You will not be able to delete the camera. D1-D8 is actually the physical ports of the unit's POE port. You can click on the edit button and change it back to "plug and play". That way it will automatically set an IP address to the cameras plugged into the internal POE and use the password of...
