Just a thought… maybe the built-in 10/100 switch ain’t a switch but instead a hub (hence why I could kill the camera streams with iperf traffic) with port 1 as an uplink port acting more like a switch port.
Would make sense if that was the case as you could create quite the broadcast storm...
Well the plot thickens ...
I setup 2 machines to run iperf3 for some testing and found while each machine was plugged into ports between 2 and 8 with my 2 cameras on a port between 2 and 8 I could overload the switch with video freezing or dropping out completely but if I moved the server side...
that’s how I found there was something night right with the port…
initially I changed Ethernet cables after trying settings and then resetting everything to default.
I then swapped the camerasaround thinking maybe it’s a dud cameraonly to find the camera that was in sync was now out of sync...
triple check the RTSP port has been set to 554, I found on my unit it had been changed to 1024 which meant the URL changed to:
- rtsp:/xxxx:[email protected]:1024/Streaming/Channels/101/
Hi,
Just purchased a Hikvision NVR (DS-7608NI-I2/8P) with 2 DS-2CD2387G2-LSU/SL cameras and to my surprise everything was pretty simple to setup.
Upon a quick play I noticed that 1 camera was pretty much in sync with me waving my hand in front of the lens while the other was sometimes in sync...
