    Hikvision, NAS and Linux Virtual Filesystem

    Just enable quotas on Linux, then create a user (1 for each camera) and setup a user-based quota (http://www.thegeekstuff.com/2010/07/disk-quota/) # quota -u cam1fp Disk quotas for user cam1fp (uid 1005): Filesystem blocks quota limit grace files quota limit grace...

    Get 5.1.x features on 5.2.x?

    Is there any way to get 4 motion detection planes on 5.2.x? I'd like to upgrade to get the P2P/Ezviz features, but I need more than 1 plane for my cameras. Thanks, Brian

    Web-based viewer/notifier for Hikvision FTP alerts

    I put this series of scripts together because I wasn't happy with the notification options on Zoneminder, nor was I happy with the default on-camera notifications options from Hikvision. I also couldn't get the iOS app and Push notifications working on Hik FW 5.1.6 (which I need because of more...

    hikvision mobile apps - ivms-4500 / ezviz only work on wifi, not mobile network

    New version of the iOS app is out. Can anyone confirm if it works better on 5.2.0? I need more than 1 plane traversal or I'd upgrade and try myself.

    Turn off IR on DS-2CD2332-I when flood light is on

    Thanks guys. I'll re-target one of my LED floods more toward the camera and see if that helps. Thanks!

    Turn off IR on DS-2CD2332-I when flood light is on

    I have a flood light (LED) that will stay on for 6 hours, otherwise it's motion detection activated. I cannot for the life of me figure out how to make the LED turn off the IR sensor on my DS-2CD2332-I (4mm; i.e. give me color video instead of B&W). I only want this to happen when the LED...

    Hikvison Permanent Region Code Hack

    Nice job. Didn't think to leave tftpd open so you could continue accessing the recovery console.

    Looking for Hikvision 5.2.5 or 5.2.8 firmware

    I obviously need to unsubscribe from this thread :) I'm all for free market, but when you knowingly hide your activities and are making money by circumventing vendor controls, you obviously know you're doing something questionably legal (at least in the US). I could care less about Hik locking...

    hikvision mobile apps - ivms-4500 / ezviz only work on wifi, not mobile network

    Brett, please let us know if you get a response. Have you tried 1) another wireless network not on your home network (like work) and 2) tried logging into EZViz account from a machine not on your home network? I was tinkering last night and website worked from home but not from work (remoted...

    hikvision mobile apps - ivms-4500 / ezviz only work on wifi, not mobile network

    I agree. I've gone to default settings on 5.2.0 and 5.2.5 and had no luck being on a network other than the LAN. I'm going back to 5.1.6 on this device and forwarding the port. I can't get push notifications, but at least I have the stability of 5.1.6.

    hikvision mobile apps - ivms-4500 / ezviz only work on wifi, not mobile network

    I believe it's related to UPNP. I had this off on my router. I turned it on and it's still not working, but I can see it's gotten farther. Can you tell me what your UPNP settings are on your router? I can see the proper ports forwarded...

    hikvision mobile apps - ivms-4500 / ezviz only work on wifi, not mobile network

    Did you ever find anything out on this? My understanding is that Ezviz is p2p so it doesn't require any port forwarding. I can add my camera, see it when i login, but it always fails to play video (both via the browser and iOS app). iOS app works if I'm on the same network, though.

    Hikvision 2532F-IS - not getting any audio through

    Did you get this firmware from Nelly's? If not, I'd contact them. Presumably if it's supported by them, they can provide you with access to it. Since it's unreleased, I'd be willing to guess they won't.

    Failed to recover from a failed firmware update...

    You closed TFTP after this and walked away for 5 minutes then power cycled and navigated to 192.0.0.64?

    Best Place to Buy HIK Vision

    I can confirm that retailer NetView on Amazon sells the US edition of 2CD2332. I purchased 2 of them, reverted firmware to US, upgraded to 5.1.6 US with no issues. It was like $1 more than another vendor which sold a hacked-US one which I sent back. Prime shipping, ordered on Saturday and...

    Visual identification of alarm events in continuous recording

    I'm using my NAS to do continuous recording of my cameras, but I was assuming that triggered events (Motion Detection - Green, Alarm - Red, Motion | Alarm - Orange) would display those colors on the remote viewing timeline using iVMS or via the iOS app. I actually thought it *used to* display...

    Solving some NFS issues on Hikvision cameras

    I solved this issue on 5.2.0 by creating a specific account and quota on my Linux machine (essentially my NAS) and then setting up an individual network share for this user. Each cam will need it's own user and share. The benefit of setting up a quota is you can now limit how much space each...
