    NVR systems - Dahua or Hikvision...or other?

    IMHO I found the Dahua interface to be a little retro and old fashioned The Hikvision early models was slightly better, but still ancient, the newer one only slightly better Blue Iris is a powerful PC based option, but has a steep learning curve. If you have the situation where 'others' may...

    Why does Blue Iris require administrator privileges (UAC prompt)?

    No point, i keep it in a folder called pr0n with a password of password1 so no chance they will ever guess that. :)

    hikvision firefox "your browser is not supported"

    Something was bugging me, so as time is available currently.... My main machine is a brand new NUC with Windows 10 1909 pro and this I 'thought' was clean as such. I had a recent issue where chrome would not update to the latest version and nothing I tried resolved the issue, I then had an...

    Hikvision NVR not accessible in web browser

    NFI as to why they are/could be different, but in side note, I just dropped 2 of my cameras back 1 update to 'fix' the issue that they had with web browsers... Whilst on the surface this things look simple. the truth is way deeper than that, as I am learning (yeah yeah Alistair I know it's a...

    Mine is V3.4.103 build 181226, BUT be aware that 'sometimes' they are country dependent, so check the portal that covers your continent, mine is Australia ")

    Hikvision NVR not accessible in web browser

    OK, I would suggest you install the hikvision batch configuration tool and use that to browse the nvr, I have found (c) alastairstevenson that i can see what my browsers could not see. From what you have replied, the issue appears to be with the NVR itself. not your network/modem/router/ports...

    Hikvision NVR not accessible in web browser

    OK, at what point do you get that message? I am assuming that you have opened the browser of choice Entered the IP that you have set for the NVR 192.168.0.2 This has then brought up the actual logon screen for the NVR You enter the username and password THEN you get the error message?

    hikvision firefox "your browser is not supported"

    OK, did some more research and found that the FW I used (190909) is only available on the EU portal, the last one on the UK portal is PC_R6_EN_STD_5.5.53_180730.zip So I d/l that one , used batch configuration and installed it to one unit Bingo... I can now use Pale Moon (with vlc plugin) and...

    hikvision firefox "your browser is not supported"

    OK, now you have me worried, by custom are you 'suggesting' that the firmware I obtained from the genuine Hikvision Portal may have been modified by parties other than Hikvision? Because despite my moniker and background, it has not been modded by me. I got nothing from the url on any browser...

    http or rtsp when setting up a camera?

    I have 4 hikvision cameras (2332 x 2 & 2142 x 2) connected to a hikvision nvr, THAT setup works just as I need, but as a tinkerer I have a 2nd system that is Blue Iris and am exploring the functions and features, as such I install cameras following advice from this forum and in that instance I...

    iVMS-4200 pre-record... does it work?

    My 'understanding' is that it only works if you also have continuous set as well, then it has the ability to borrow the pre footage. in other words, when the unit is triggered it will just loop the previous footage before the event occurs

    Hikvision Remote Access via Web Browser is Gone...

    Are you on Windows 10? and did you update recently, either auto or manual... Did you also update the firmware in the units to the most recent?

    H O L Y S H I T I had NEVER even considered this tool, my background assumed it was for creating a template style file that would be used to configure multiple (as in 000) for speedy deployment. What is does is perfect for what I need... Once again I am in your debt kind sir

    Absolute beginner with absolutely no knowledge.......

    most probably you now have different IP addresses, you need to determine the ranges used and what is in use, hikvision have a tool that does this called SADP, you need the dahua equivalent, then you can figure out what is what

    Attn: Networking Gurus - Help me understand this...

    What is providing the actual wifi? is it the isp modem? if so then it could be that causing the issue, they do not tend to output a strong signal and if the tv is contending with you using a network intensive app over wifi then !! I would put the TV on a wire for a start. You may find the...

    Confused - Sort Of - VPN/Port Forwarding

    You made a pretty common mistake (assumption) There are two (2) types of VPN options, consider them as OUT and IN 1. OUT - This is when YOU need to secure/hide the outgoing data from systems to your ISP and other prying eyes. this is where you have to buy a service from a supplier (...

    Need an application that will allow me to stream without using IP Cam Live

    TBH not in the last few months, it was maybe 6-7 months ago, I don't have a need for it, I do this 'testing' for others that are in need of assistance, I provide solutions :) So if YT has done what it does and changed something, then it may not work. If I get chance I will test before the end...

    IVMS-4200 3.1.1 problem with NVR

    Hikvision events and Blue Iris... Object removal detection, etc.

    OK (dons flame proof suit) for zone crossing to function, does motion detection ALSO have to be enabled?
