Hi, Been having trouble setting up a Samsung (Hanwah Techwin) NVR model SRN-3250 and remote connection. Ports specified in the network page are TCP 4000 Web 80 RSTP 554 RTP 4000 I have setup port forwarding for 4000, 80 and added a range for 554-558. I can connect fine over the internet...

This cam is '5.2.8_141231' CN based, so not upgradable past that, En mod downgraded from 5.2.8 - 5.2.5. and thank you.

All thanks to this site and members, inc you MR AS :)

Re-ran the recovery procedure this morning, and ignored I could not see any files on the camera ftp gui (although hidden files had been enabled in WinSCP), manually changed directory to /tmp/ and transfered the mtd files. All back and up and running, called my friend to say the camera is fixed...

Thanks, I tried to enable ftp but got a weird output response (i'll repeat and add the exact output details later), I started winSCP anyway to ftp to the camera, the User / pass are accepted but the directory /root/ is empty and I cannot navigate away to another directory.

Hey Guy's, Just had a 2132 given back to try and fix from a friend of mine i gave it to last year but the issue is he has tried to flash the latest english version 5.4.5 firmware and it's Chinese region that I mtd hacked to English on 5.2.5 before I gave it him. It's stuck in recovery, so I...

I noticed this firmware is smaller in size, quite a few end blocks missing, maybe it only flashes relying on an original firmware version which is partially left behind to work with it, as you say it may need a specific firmware to be present before updating.

Ok I'll sort a temp D/L link this evening, thanks.

Any update to what might be the cause? Thanks.

Yeah I removed it, sites not letting any downloads complete for some reason, see my post before yours. I'll repeat that your firmware is different to the one on HikVisions site.

xnaron you'll have have to post your file link as the site won't let me upload anything that can be downloaded intact, sorry. Ok xnaron's firmware file is different to the one on Hikvision's DL site (Baseline Firmware_IPC_2XX2 series_En_V5.3.0 150327), who wants to flash it :)

You could open it in a hex editor (HxD) and see if it matches the known problematic released 3.5.0 instead of flashing it first to find out. BTW the file is corrupt - unexpected end of archive, also towards the end of downloading it stops @ 96% and has to be resumed but is corrupt.

Yes it it's very interesting to see the structure, just getting into NAS after using a server for sometime really liking the apps/features, Ok I can play the file copied from the share using MPC-HC x86 that I have attached below PM'd you the password, thanks.

Grabbed a file from the recording share but having difficulty playing it without the right codec, doesn't seem to be one on the net :/ I'll try the direct to disk method tomorrow, thanks for looking at this for me!

Thanks Alastair and FM, Here is a video (had to zip it to upload here), look at the top right and you can see the tree and washing blowing in the wind with start/stop/start/stop stuttering and a capture of the cam settings you requested. Let me know if you require any other settings. Thanks.
