Very strange. I did a factory default reset hoping to upgrade the firmware, but was hesitant due to having to input passwords before the upgrade. After re-instating my details, the NVR is now running perfectly and is rock steady and works well.

I have a Hikvision DS-7608NI-I2/8P 3.495. Build 170626 that has some problems and I would like to try and upgrade the firmware. I have downloaded many version of the firmware and have been hesitant to try the upgrade due to many who have bricked their NVRs doing the upgrade. I purchased the unit...

It is still not right and i can only do live view on my indoor station if I reboot the NVR, then I get error 10703. I am going to do a factory reset and upgrade the firmware. Hopefully not end up bricking the NVR

I changed the live view to sub stream and it no longer freezes and the detail seems to be acceptable. When I get the courage, I will still have a crack at upgrading the firmware.

After some more experimenting, I find that for some reason it works better in 5+1 mode than 2x2 mode. The largest screen seems to be around 30 seconds behind the smaller one, and if i view the live view on my phone over wifi, the picture is around 10 seconds ahead of the small screens on the VGA...

I am rebooting via the shut-down menu on the nvr. The freezing happens on 1 or more windows of a 4 screen matrix on a pc monitor connected to the nvr. After a period the frozen screen will update, and then another one will freeze. Remote view on hikconnect seems to be OK as does playback. When...

Just a quick update, I re-booted the nvr and withing a few minutes, the freezing started again and it is showing 2tb free in the HD menu.

I have had this NVR since 2018 and originally ran 2 1tb hard WD purple drives in it. I would occasionally freeze in the live view randomly in each of the 4 windows, but independently of each other. The work around I found for this was to re initialize one of the hard drives, and then it would...

BTW, if I click "Update" in my browser or IVMS, I get the reply, "not detect new version. the current version is the latest" Apparently ugrading from 3x to 4x can be a problem

That's great news and I at least know now that it is a firmware issue. now I have to decide whether I am prepared to brick the NVR as I can't get any info on the origin of the NVR as the seller is no longer on ebay as does not repond to emails. Did you do anything special when you upgraded the...

Thanks for the Reply Raven, I would be very interested in how you go with the firmware upgrade.Is the one you are upgrading on ver 4.1.11?

Hi Raven123, I spent a bit of time on this and never got anywhere. I even tried to get the door cam to work on onvif, but could not get that to work either. Everything works except getting the NVR to work with it. I thought it was not worth the risk to upgrade the firmware as the door cam is the...

I recently added an intercom kit, a Hikvision DS-KH6320-WTE1W with a DS-KD8003-IME1 door station to my house. I have been running a Hikvision DS-7608NI-I2 / 8P, Firmware V3.4.95 build 170626 since 2017 without issue. I have managed (after some serious battles) to get the intercom to work with...

Thanks for the reply, I have contacted Hikvision support who replied that I need to contact the dealer I purchased the NVR from. The dealer seems like he may be inactive now, but I am waiting for a reply. Where can I find the necessary steps to update the firmware to V4.x?

Hi, I have recently purchased a Hikvison intercom kit to connect with my Hikvison DS-7608NI-I2 / 8P NVR. The intercom kit is a DS-KH6320-WTE1W with a DS-KD8003-IME1 door station. My NVR is Model serial DS-7608NI-I2 / 8P0820170815CCRR815181497WCVU Firmware V3.4.95 build 170626 Encoding version...
