Yeah, sometime back the browser viewing changed from automatic live feed of the cameras, to needing to hit the "play" button. Threw me for a bit until I poked around mashing buttons. Glad you figured it out.

Go directly to Hik's website and download the HikConnect app. Set it up, then make sure in the NVR you have the proper notification type ticked in the box - I believe it's called "notification center" or something like that. You'll get push notifications of events and can even live view the...

On Edge in IE mode, I have to hit the play button in live view before video starts - and before I can set any detection parameters.

I don't offhand but they are terrible. Take the base into an Ace Hardware and start trying out small machine screws.

It's actually pretty useful for when you travel. If you have one or more cameras that are for 24/7 recording only - not meant for triggered events - you can set up a "holiday schedule" to enable triggered events and alerts while you are away and you will be notified. For example, one of my...

Are you having problems with the handle moving without the door opening? You asked for help, I answered. You need your detection box bigger, then test it. If that moves the ball forward but you need more, tweak the threshold. Or not.

Why do you have the box (triangle) drawn only on the handle? Draw the box to cover more of the door. And you may need to drop the threshold down from 2 to 1.

I don't think ColorVu buyers with unrealistic expectations make those cameras bad or disappointing. That's the buyer's fault. In the right application they are terrific.

I bought my whole system from B&H. Good people, fast shipping. Don't bother with the prices you see on the website. Sign up for an account and after you sign in, the prices will be way different (cheaper).

Why don't you back that line up to the middle or closer to the rear of the car?

I think it's in Help>>Product Warranties & Repairs: Product Warranties & Repairs | B&H Photo Video (bhphotovideo.com) Also, why do you need B&H to help with firmware updates? They're on the Hikvision site.

Wow, 5 years later. It almost feels like the pins-and-needles you get in your leg when it's asleep.

Just got over shingles at the age of 54. Aside from a kidney stone a few years ago, it is undoubtedly the most painful thing I've ever experienced. Had it on my head, jawline and neck. Absolutely fucking miserable. Even 10 weeks out, I can still feel tingling sensations in my scalp, and my...

Too bad you're not on the I-series. The newest firmware update has a new function that allows scheduling NVR reboots.

That error code just means Hikconnect could not retrieve the recording from the NVR - it's quite common. It happens on occasion without any reason. When I start getting those I do a quick NVR reboot and it's cured. Nobody seems to know why that error pops up.
