You really are a top guy. Just done this and all is good. Thank you :clap:

That's correct. It doesn't stick when saved so it is continuously recording and not on motion. I can go click on events then save it but it won't save it. Just checked and I'm in IE11.

Now you said that it does make sense. I wasn't sure if it was something I overlooked but seen as it's all working fine it does make sense. I managed to get the IP numbers just now for the cams by going into Network, advanced settings then ticking the "enable virtual host" box then save. I went...

I've managed to sort out viewing on my phone but the issue I have with wanting it to record in motion only is still there. As you stated it does show as continuous in the storage schedule. I've set it to "event" and then saved it but it won't move on from continuous. I'm on firmware version...

The new NVR is now in and on. Just a couple of head scratchers - both cams are recording and won't seem to go into motion sensor despite the enable motion and enable dynamic analysis boxes ticked or unticked. The areas are highlighted on both cams and just seem to record constantly no matter...

Following on from my last post where my NVR wouldn't boot up - well it did then decided to finally die over the weekend - Hikvision NVR not booting up I've ordered a new NVR which should arrive tomorrow. Is it pretty straight forward to replace the old with the new and is there anything in...

A big thanks for taking your time out to write that reply with some very useful information. It all seems to be working fine at the moment although I will get around to doing those checks and reply once I've done them. Great website forum this one :)

It's an odd one for sure. I switched it on last night and it started to boot up with the intro then I heard a click from inside the NVR then the intro to Hikvision embedded vanished. I turned it on this morning and hey presto It's back on and fully working again. The firmware version installed...

I spoke too soon. I turned it off to change the cams back to position and now it won't switch on. At best I get the start where the NVR is setting up then it dies.

Once again, thanks for your replies. I got as far as disconnecting the LAN cable from the NVR and plugged it into my laptop. The next thing that happened was the wizard screen came up on the monitor. I had to log back in and hey presto everything is back to how it was. I can now see the NVR via...

Thanks for your quick reply and advice. It did have the latest firmware (at least it did when I last checked which is often). That little lot that you explained is probably a bit over my head. I'm ok doing firmware upgrades and that's about it. I think if I have to throw some money at getting...

I've got a Hikvision 4ch DS7604NI hooked up to 2 dome cams. It's been working fine until yesterday. It has power but it is not booting up. Before I could use it in Internet Explorer, phone apps and through my TV monitor. Now I can't see it anywhere. It's not in SADP, IVMS, my BT modem and...

Quick update - Upgraded the firmware to V3.4.2 build 160129 and it's back to recording although I've lost the link now to the older www.hik-online.com in DDNS. I've registered with hik-connect.com and all seems to be working, apart from when going to network - basic settings -tcp/ip. My prefered...

Had a power cut on Sunday and it's stopped recording again. Since then I can no longer view the cams on my mobile phone via IVMS4500 and it shows up HCNetSdkError:0 although I can still see them on my PC and tablet. I've also done a format on my HDD to see if that would start the recordings...

Thanks for your reply but it has started recording again. Nothing on the logs and nothing else out the ordinary either.
