    NVR decoding capability and live view

    Are we talking about the same thing? I thought we were talking about Hikvision/Hikvision OEM products and the difference between firmware 3.4.X and 4.0. So now we are talking about a Dahua NVR? I am a little confused.

    New ipcam not detected via router but ok direct to Poe port

    You do not need to have all 4 cables going from the cameras to the NVR's POE. You can have all 4 cameras plugged into the external POE and then have one cable going into one of the NVR's POE ports. This is ideal because it put the cameras behind the NVR so that is another layer of protection...

    New ipcam not detected via router but ok direct to Poe port

    If you plug in a POE switch into one of the on board POE's on the NVR, it will only plug and play one camera on that switch. You will need to go into the camera settings, find an empty port and set it to manual from plug and play and manually enter the information for each camera. To minimize...

    Unable to access information using any browser to update cameras

    Correct... The information I posted is for: NVR: 4.1.65 and later Cameras: 5.5.81 and later Anything under that will not have support for Chrome or Firefox. So Internet Explorer is a must for older firmware. No Edge either. With that being said... Chrome will work if using IE Tab...

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

    I have this camera also. Hikvision along with many OEM's have this model. This camera has darkfighter. The IR is weak. The plastic mount is really cheap. Somebody can reach up and unhook it with a twist of the wrist. Picture quality is okay. This camera is not endless 360 like the higher...

    New ipcam not detected via router but ok direct to Poe port

    DS-7604NI-E1 has 4 built in POE ports. Are those not able to be used? Ideally and the most simple would be to just plug the cameras there using plug and play. If not then plug your cameras into POE switch and then to one of the onboard NVR POE ports. If not then plug the POE switch on the...

    NVR decoding capability and live view

    Once you are on NVR GUI 4.0 it will not let you downgrade. What firmware were you on before and what is the current firmware? Earlier versions of 4.0 had issues/bugs. Make sure you are on the latest version and update the firmware in sequential order. For the reviewing playback you were...

    Best browser to use is IE running as administrator. Firefox and chrome would work but certain options are missing. I have attached the official information below from Hikvision.

    Controlling when Hikvision DS-2DE4A425IW PTZ Camera runs its Pan / Tilt / Zoom Test

    Keep in mind that the PTZ will be using higher power so it is best to have at least a 40 watt power supply. Regular cameras are using less at around 10 watts or so. So since it is only doing it at night.... all the cameras are using IR which will require more power compared to daytime. I...

    HIK IP PoE Camera IP Address "Reset"

    John. So the Netgear is plugged into the POE port of the NVR and not the LAN port. What I would do is plug the computer into the netgear and run SADP. You should see all the cameras along with the NVR. If cameras not showing up then check the power. In your scenario then yes each camera...

    Recommendations on camera and NVR

    What price range are you looking for? It won’t necessarily be a ColorVu. It will be more in the lines of a Darkfighter which I have see many that are at a good price point.

    HikVision manually recorded video not playable

    Turn off the stream encryption and see if that fixes the issue. VS Player is what Hikvision recommends to convert from their format to a standard format. So when you open VS Player look at the bottom there will be a toolbox icon. Click on that and you will see converter. Just select the file...

    HikVision manually recorded video not playable

    Hikvision recorders while saying the video is in an MP4 format is not a standard MP4. VLC player will play some but not all. For best viewing use Hikvision’s own VS Player software to watch downloaded clips. The VS Player can also convert the file to a standard file that can be viewed with...

    NVR decoding capability and live view

    Having GUI 4.0 for the unit is not what it seems. Yes it is the latest and greatest but they have a major bug on it that is still being fixed. The older interface... the 3.4.X is still one of the better/stable interfaces. Major thing about GUI 4.0 is the issue with the file system. Unit...

    Best night vision currently I have seen are 4 megapixels. They are starting to make good low light cameras that are 5 megapixels but I would still recommend 4 mp. Anything higher will have a lot of noise in the picture as it is trying to add more pixels to a picture without much details to...

    HIK IP PoE Camera IP Address "Reset"

    JG, Let me get an idea of how you have everything. The screenshot of the SADP. Where is the computer plugged in? Where are the cameras plugged in? Are the cameras plugged into the switch or the NVR’s onboard POE? Let me infer. Your cameras are currently plugged into the switch on the...

    DVR to NVR replacement

    How about a Hikvision 7300 series. It has the BNC inputs on the back of the unit so it can accept your old analog cameras. You can also add IP cameras using an external POE switch. Any analog ports you are not using you can disable so it will give you an extra IP channel.

    HIkvision NVR - limit audio access?

    Two way audio is exactly like it sounds. You will have mic and speaker connected to camera. Then you can use the client software, app on phone, etc to talk to the person at the camera location. What you can do it create a new user on your NVR. Then select what permissions you would like to...

    Review of the Hikvision OEM model IPC-T2347G-LU 'ColorVu' IP CCTV camera.

    Cheapest I have seen for colorvu cameras is around $150 for the turrets. The mini bullets are in the same price range and the normal bullets are roughly $20 more because those come with a junction box inside.

    Review of the Hikvision OEM model IPC-T2347G-LU 'ColorVu' IP CCTV camera.

    The colorvu cameras do not need to have the LED on. Those LED's are only rated to have 65 ft range. You can actually log into the camera directly and turn it off under "configuration" along with raising and lowering the intensity of the light. I don't have the LED turned on for mine. The...

    HIK IP PoE Camera IP Address "Reset"

    JG, That look right. Exactly what I said before. Your home network is 192.168.1.X. Your NVR's internal POE ports are on a 192.168.254.X. If those three cameras were first connected to the NVR POE's then they automatically activated and were assigned an IP address by the NVR. That is why...

    ColorVu camera don't need to have the LED on. On the IP versions you will just log into the camera using the camera's IP address, go to configuration and then are able to turn off the LED or even adjust how bright it gets. I personally have mine turned off and I still get perfect color at...

    Recommendations on camera and NVR

    I personally have used the Lorex systems and they are usable but you get what you pay for. Housing on the cameras are plastic and the videos do not have a very vibrant color. On the other hand... It depends on the price point that you want to stay within. If you are wanting to get 4k (8mp)...

    HV ColorVu DS-2CD2347G1-L(U) Turret - Not Available in 2.8mm Lens?

    For the North American region (USA and Canada) there does not seem to be any plans for having that feature added to the IP ColorVu line. That being said.... the closest to having that feature would be the DS-2CE72DFT-PIRXOF but that would be for DVR/Analog.

    DS-7608NI-E2/8P Reset Password

    Do you have the hidden easter egg on the NVR's firmware? It is the hidden button on the bottom left hand corner of the log in window. Double click there and it will show the complete serial number and then as for the secure code. Make sure the code is used for the correct date that is...
