    HikVision Nightmare - Reset Password Failed 2022

    Couple of days ago I had the same issue (same error). It was solved by temporarily disabling antivirus software (in this case 360 total security) during the file import. Other clue: On the PC running SADP software use wired connection (instead of wi-fi). Sometimes this also helps.

    Audio disables itself - Hikvision DS-2CD2142FWD-IS

    Are you sure the camera accepts the settings at all? For example, if you use browser for setup (IE plus properly installed ActiveX plugin), right after saving the changes (audio plus video), logoff and logon again to see if the settings are saved correctly. Alternatively you can use iVMS4200 to...

    Audio disables itself - Hikvision DS-2CD2142FWD-IS

    Is the camera added for recording in NVR? If yes, do the setting in the NVR instead of the camera directly.

    Live view failed when accessing IP cameras from Chrome Linux, NVR live view works.

    Normally you should use NVR for live view/playback and all the basic settings (motion detection, event settings, recording setup, etc). Virtual server option (i.e. accessing the camera web page) is intended only for a camera settings which are "hidden" for the NVR itself. Such settings are the...

    hikvision no more camera is allowed

    No, firmware upgrade normally keeps the settings. Hard to say what's the safest way - either browser (IE) or iVMS4200. Most often I use browser.

    hikvision no more camera is allowed

    Yes, this model supports max 2 IP cameras. Nevertheless, using the latest firmware V3.4.89 build 180906(For HGHI-F) it's possible to disable analog channel, and replace it with IP channel (for example 15 analog + 3 IP cameras).

    Hikvision DS-7616-NI cannot find downloaded files

    Yes, that's true. But my assumption was IE is used only for accessing the cameras (just like I'm using it). Who uses nowadays IE for daily browsing... Even Microsoft hid it deep in the Win 10 menu, and claimed Edge as a main browser. According to a global researches IE takes only about 2% from...

    If you use Internet Explorer, uncheck the option: Tools -> Internet Options -> Security -> Enable protected mode. Then reboot the browser.

    Hikvision motion or event recording, separated!!

    Probably it's a firmware issue. What is the model number and the firmware version?

    Hikvision motion or event recording, separated!!

    I'm not sure if the latest USA firmware has something different, but in general Hikvision works like this: - when accessing the local interface with monitor and mouse you can choose between different schedule modes like: motion only, alarm, motion or alarm, motion and alarm or event. In your...

    can I connect many DVRs to main NVR?

    Nothing special. Just add the same way as you add IP camera. Then you will be prompted to add all the channels or select some channels from the DVR. Make sure also ports 554 are accessible from the NVR side (in case the DVRs are behind firewall/router). P.S. Sorry, I didn't see you're talking...

    DS-7604NI-SE/P Firmware

    Try first to reset it to default settings, then upgrade to version 2.3.4 from the link above. If that's OK, you can go to the latest version.

    4k camera max view at one time

    I'm not sure I do understand your question well (my English is not so perfect). It sounds for me you ask a question, then you give an answer itself. In my opinion 4K cameras also is a waste of money which gives not enough benefits compared to a FullHD lowlight cameras. As for the NVR (I don't...

    4k camera max view at one time

    You have to turn off automatic switching to sub stream when vieweing more than 4 cameras: Tool -> System configuration -> Image ->Auto change stream type->Off. And then cross fingers your laptop could bear the load of decoding 5 main streams on high resolution.

    Two Analog Cameras to Onvif?

    The easiest and chiepest way is simply to use Hikvision DVR. NVR can connect to the streams from the DVR as they're IP cams.
