Hi,

I have the NVR Hikivsion DS-7716NI-I4 (discontinued) up and running, the firmware V4.61.030 build 240123 (latest official). Therefore, I was looking for some way to upgrade to a recent version compatible with my device.

I have found the link poiting to the firmware "V5.03.00" and inside of the release notes is possible to see a device list showing be compatible with several devices even the DS-7716NI-I4.

I decided to download the firmware and try to upgrade using the digicap.dav, but I also received the message "Upgrade package and device type mismatch. Check the device type of upgrade package." as well.

Either way, I appreciate any help from someone who has had success with it.
 
I have found the link https://www.hikvisioneurope.com/uk/...ck Ends/NVR/03 M Series[76 77 NI-M]/V5.03.000 poiting to the firmware "V5.03.00" and inside of the release notes
That's for the M-series NVRs, a different model from your I-series device.

https://www.hikvisioneurope.com/uk/.../K21B1_V5.03.000_build240428_ReleaseNotes.pdf is possible to see a device list showing be compatible with several devices even the DS-7716NI-I4.
It doesn't list your specific I-series model, just the (C) variants, which use different internal hardware.
DS-7716NI-I4(C)
DS-7716NI-I4/16P(C)

the firmware V4.61.030 build 240123 (latest official).
Yes, that's the latest firmware for your I-series NVR.
