    Hikvision DS-7608NI-E2-8P/A DNS problem and other question

    I think I read about some other people having DHCP issues with the 3.3.4 firmware as well, so probably best to configure it manually. I'm pretty sure you don't need to open all those ports to have everything working (and you shouldn't open more than you need). I believe there's a thread...

    Access to NVR via https://??

    I don't have HTTPS on v3.1.0 either, I believe v3.3.1+ have it though. I personally don't think HTTPS is really necessary though unless you're connecting to your NVR through public and/or unsecured networks. Depending on what you need to remotely access your NVR for, you can just create another...

    Motion detection images low quality

    That's a really stupid response from Hikvision if true..

    Cannot enable alarm notification on iVMS-4500 app (ios)

    I'm not sure v3.0.7 even supports mobile app push notifications.. though I could be wrong. The email issue sounds like its just a configuration issue though, you just have to "turn on support for less secure apps" here: https://www.google.com/settings/security/lesssecureapps

    Motion detection images low quality

    Ah ok, was just making sure because you said older firmwares have virtual host which I actually wasn't aware of. I guess Hikivision loves taking features away..

    Motion detection images low quality

    Not sure if you're reading it correctly.. but v3.1.0 is newer than v3.0.10. v3.1.0 is also only available on the USA FTP site and not on the Europe site. In any case, I can confirm that everything released after v3.1.0 has it (so v3.3.2 and v.3.3.4).

    Motion detection images low quality

    Just a small correction, I believe the Ex models do have virtual host. I have a 7608NI-E2 on v3.1.0 and it works. Though the low resolution email attachments are still a problem.

    Weird i-frame linked artifacting in videos

    I've been having the same issue as OP lately, but with a 2CD2032-I and I tried every suggestion on the web with no dice. One last thing I tried was downgrading my firmware and lo and behold, that solved it. So in my case, the problem was the 5.3 firmware. I went back to 5.2.3 (latest official...

    Hikvision FIRMWARE TOOLS - change language, extract files and create own firmware

    Just curious, has anyone successfully flashed a 5.3 firmware with modifications made to it? I played around with it briefly, but I couldn't flash a custom 5.3 firmware made with this tool.

    Email alerts not working when Hikvision cameras connected to DS-7608NI-E2/8P

    I came into this thread with the exact same problem as OP, huge thanks to you as this was the missing piece to get things working. For those with a linksys router, this page should help: http://www.linksys.com/us/support-article?articleNum=135048 Wow... I had no idea this even existed and I've...

    Couple of quick questions about setting up Hik NVR-DS-7616N-E2-8P-16CH

    I had this bug on 3.0.8. Extremely annoying. Almost every firmware has its pros/cons so all you can really do is find one that sacrifices the things that are least important to you.

    Hikvision IP Camera not connecting to Hikvision NVR 7716

    hmm.. have you tried resetting the cameras? There should be a hardware reset button if you take the dome cover off and the procedure is to hold the reset button for 20 seconds or so after plugging in the power.

    Hikvision IP Camera not connecting to Hikvision NVR 7716

    I've had similar issues in the past with Plug and Play on my Hikvision before as well where one camera would work, and another wouldn't for no apparent reason. If you want to try and get Plug and Play working, I would suggest factory resetting your NVR and seeing if that helps. Otherwise (or...

    Intrusion detection or motion detection?

    I use both, motion detection for recording anything that moves, and intrusion/line crossing detection for notifications. If you're short on space you could have recording only on intrusion/line crossing, but I feel like you might miss some stuff that way. A missed notification isn't so bad, but...

    Reboot nvr daily or weekly?

    Your Hikvision has a feature for setting a reboot schedule? What model is it?

    Upgrade few on swann NVR

    I helped a friend do this a while back and yes it is possible. The model if I recall only shows "16ch 3MP NVR" or "8ch 3MP NVR" which is actually an "nvr16-7200" and "nvr8-7200" respectively. As a Hikvision, it's actually just the DS-76xx-E1/E2 series. If yours isn't the same, you can still...

    Hikvision 3.3.4 firmware

    I recently tested this out on my DS-7608NI-E2 and I ended up going back to 3.1.0 (the next latest USA firmware). I posted some info in this thread for anyone considering doing the same upgrade...
