I also replaced the lithium button cell as it's voltage was low, down to around 2V.

The entire part I was not getting was that some of this stuff can't be accessed or configured from the web interface. ---- This entire project was/is for an end client who had lost touch with whoever installed this thing. They did not have any passwords or anything and half the cameras were "not...

Lan Interface options only, nothing else pertaining to the internal/switch network in advanced. Displayed is the Lan1 interface, Internet facing. Changing to static IP or different network range does not change the no visibility and inability to view/change any of the internal network aspects.

There is absolutely no reference anywhere within the interface to this second network aside from Lan1. There's only a Lan1 tab in the interface. No reference to 192.168.254.X or that it is also listening on 192.168.254.1 on the switch network. and no ability to view or change any of it. I'm...

Thanks for the help! I have since read and discovered the NVR appears to be "hardcoded" on a network address of 192.168.254.1 and services a LAN of 192.168.254.0/24 (guessing) On the 16 port POE switch (isolated from it's Lan1 port). There is NO reference to or ability to configure this...

Thanks for the reply! This makes sense, however I am not seeing any settings for this second subnet (as admin) on the NVR. Is this something that is hardcoded and is it documented? (I'm currently scraping the manuals for any info on this). There is no reference to another network (10.x.x.x)...

I'm working on and experiencing my first Hikvision NVR: DS-7616NI-K2 / 16P This is an older unit, firmware from 2017. I'm having difficulty getting my head around the built in internal 16 port POE switch. It appears to NOT be bridged to the single LAN port (unit management network). And...

If you like please share with me your favorite POE IP camera for wide angle stuff and thanks! I've been having difficulty finding anything I like the feature list of that is over 120° I think 127° was the max FOV I found in s short time looking around and ,many of them were not IP cameras...

Just a followup and to close this subject properly. After a number of BlueIris software updates (and there have been a lot of them over the past three weeks). A significant number of the updates were titled: "RTSP sub-streams for high-MP cameras Other minor enhancements and bug fixes" It now...

Thanks! I'm not trying to be too stubborn. Part of it is We have these things out there all over the place and of course had a desire to also figure it out if it were figure-outtable. Aside from that I'm genuinely just interested in knowing exactly how things work or don;t work in this...

Hey, thanks for taking the time to answer my questions and give the suggestions that you have from experience. It is very much appreciated. I am not "dead set" on using Reolink or any other cheap stuff. These work 'good enough' for the jobs I have used them for really really have for 2-3...

What do you like better in the same price range? Or do you just have to pay a lot more for hardware acceleration? I've been pretty happy with what they do for the price range even without the hardware accel. I've had great video quality and some installations have spanned 3-4 years outdoors...

Progress report: Said a prayer. Still not working.

Aware of this. Also I have all motion detection disabled continuous record turned on and direct to disk recording set on. VLC just playing the video involves decoding the video using the GPU to do it. Blue Iris for some reason is failing to do this first step using the GPU to decode the stream...

Here's VLC playing the same Reolink RTSP stream at max resolution the camera will put out (2560x1440) and 30FPS and it us using the GPU as expected/wanted. You can also see BlueIris using some GPU for the one test stream I have going to it at 1080P from a Reolink @30FPS. BlueIris has four...
