    New Install - Crashing after changes to setup

    I have d/l the latest file and installed it on two different machines, one Windows 10 and one Windows 7 and the same error is occurring. Different sites and different quality of build. Installed as default, 64 bit, add one camera and all works OK Then add settings for rtsp stream to YouTube...

    Trying to get through setup - DNS error message

    That's why I asked about DHCP and DNS settings, I managed to find info buried on Amcrest that 'issues' often occur with what 'they' define as non standard DNS etc, and using the router as the DNS may be the issue, hence the use of 8.8.8.8 or 9.9.9.9

    Trying to get through setup - DNS error message

    thought as much, just needed to check ;-) You don't have a DHCP scope that precludes that range? Try setting a static ip and dns and see if that helps

    Network assistance please?

    It sounds like the NVR has 4 PoE ports, if that is the case then the NVR assigns an ip to each port that is on a different ip range to the one that the NVR itself uses to connect to the network. On your pc that is network 'A' it can only see other devices that have similar addresses, any device...

    DS-7604NI-E1/4P POE Ports not working

    On the NVR what appears in the power PoE section when you connect the camera? It should show connection and power draw. Have you set static ip's on the cameras? Remember you have to let the NVR manage them when you connect them to the PoE, also check and set virtual hosts, then you can connect...

    NVR Recommendations ... Dahau, Hikvison, VIP, other

    I have a DS-7604 from Hikvision, I got it because it does NOT have PoE ports, that way I can put the NVR anywhere I like on my network, I then use PoE on a switch that is static. A NVR is simple and for most people enough, BUT if you want to really use the power of cameras, then take the time...

    cameras for hikvision DS-7608NI-E2

    Not sure where you read that, but I am sure it is wrong, only today I worked on a 7608 with 6 units of 3 & 4 mp and no issues. and they were running full res with high bit rates etc.

    cameras for hikvision DS-7608NI-E2

    DS-7608 denotes that the unit can handle 8 cameras/channels ALL cameras can be set to continuous recording with motions detection, but be aware that the 'setting' for motion detection is not an accurate science and many factors can influence the triggers, and if you set it to send an email...

    HIKVision Network IP (IPs) question

    The upper one is for YOUR lan, the lower IT suggest for the range for the POE units, let it manage that and change the upper one to your required settings

    Monitor at a distance from NVR

    Why extend the video? You could, but then how would you interact? if all you are after is 'remote view' use a pc and web access, or a smart tv with an app, or an android tv box, all of them have the functions you need and more, just extending the hdmi/vga is like read only...

    Viewing Hikvision NVRs cameras on TV?

    How many cameras? I am working with cheap small android tv boxes running ivms and/or tinycam as android apps and they can open multiple streams of different nvr units, all you need to consider is the overall bandwidth figures...

    Raspbery Pi2 Camera Monitor w/Rpisurv

    RFI: Hikivision NVR login shows random characters...

    Not an answer, but a request for info if possible about the upgrade? Where did you get the file from? Did you use the NVR to 'check' for the update? and dis it say yes or none availabe Or did you just get the latest and then do the update?

    Question for you Pros

    ANDROID TV BOX - A small device that sites adjacent to the TV via HDMI, plugs into wifi or best ethernet and then an app is loaded onto that box, IVMS tinycam etc and you select the units to monitor, leave that running and all he has to do is switch inputs and all is clear :) I did not mention...

    Day 4 of BI: Time to convert my dad! lol Does hikvision connect to BI?

    BI 'IS' the NVR (Only Better) So are you asking if the CCDVR can be connected to BI? You may find that BI will see the cameras on the CCDVR

    Question for you Pros

    We all have to ask "stupid" questions in order to become "experts" in any field!

    Are you SURE that you only changed the http port from 80 to 88? And where did you do that? There are (at least) 4 ports that give access, and note these are the defaults on MY camera YMMV http on 80 rtsp on 554 https on 443 server on 8000
