    My first attempts have failed..

    All of my cameras go through the nvr and are on the .254 network, virtual host routs them to the address of the nvr and just gives each one a different port number. The nvr starts the virtual host ports at 65001 so all I have to do to access my cameras remotely is open that port range on my...

    My first attempts have failed..

    What exactly are you wanting from the camera that you are not getting from the nvr? The way I have mine set up is have the events from the camera sent to the nvr i.e. line crossing then the nvr sends the email. I can access all of my cameras with the virtual host setting enabled. on the nvr I...

    Sound playback problems

    EDIT: Solved my own problem with two solutions, one is a Hikvision conversion tool found here http://www.hikvision.com/en/us/download_more.asp?id=637 the other is a "filter" for windows media player http://www.hikvision.com/en/us/downl...re.asp?id=1119

    Sound playback problems

    I have a DS-7716NI-SP with a DS-2CD2532F-IS attached, every thing works great but when I save a video to my computer and try to play it with VLC it has no sound. If I playback from the NVR the sound works perfectly, is there a way to export or save these files and still have the sound work...

    Record - Capture Question

    In my NVR there is a setting for recording and capture, what is the difference and where do you find what was captured?

    DS-7716NI-SP less features than the actual camera

    I am really starting to not be that happy with this NVR Few things that are irking me, I hope maybe a firmware upgrade or something I don't have set right can fix. 1st one is it does not have the ability to overlay text on a non hikvision camera 2nd is I lose all of the cameras motion...

    HIKVISION 7608 DVR; Will it FTP?

    On mine you dont have to delete a camera to add a camera, just select one of the unused positions and reconfigure it to your needs.

    let my gaurd down - ready to fight back with tech

    This may sound simple but motion sensor outdoor lighting is a great deterrent, cameras are great but they can only show you what has already happened.

    Remote camera access possible behind an NVR? DS-7608NI-SE

    I think I just figured it out, or this may just be a walkaround. When the NVR uses the Plug-n-Play setting it gives an ip like this 192.168.254.xx since it is a range my network cant access I have to go through the nvr to access it, if I try to use a 192.168.1.xx that I can access on the...

    Remote camera access possible behind an NVR? DS-7608NI-SE

    If you could give a quick walk through that would be great because when I first got it I tried manual first and I never could get it to work, the port says it is providing power but I was unable to access the camera via the network or through the nvr.

    Then I can't use the poe ports thus defeating the whole reason i got the 16poe model.

    Remote camera access possible behind an NVR? DS-7608NI-SE

    You cant change the password on the NVR when you use the plug n play setting, it is greyed out. I am in a transition phase to to keep the Wife Approval Factor up I still have to have the old dvr fully functional so she feels safe when I am at work over night, she like to be able to pull up...

    Remote camera access possible behind an NVR? DS-7608NI-SE

    I have been using this and it works but I have a problem, when I use the plug n play setup option on my nvr (Hikvision DS-7716NI-SP/16) it seems I have to leave the cameras admin login settings at default or it doesn't work. so when I use virtual host it works great except all of my cameras are...

    Hikvision DS-7716NI-SP/16 NVR Wont overlay text on non HIKVISION Cameras

    Just messing around with my VIVOTEK IP8332 hooking it up to the HIKVISION NVR and it seems the nvr has to use something in the camera to overlay text which kind of sucks because all of my old analog dvrs used to be able to add test on anything. It also wont do motion detection. Something else...

    Advice on Q-See NVR

    Another good rule of thumb most of us learned the hard way, if you scrimp now you will just be paying more later, read reviews and ask questions, I could have saved a ton of money if I did that first

    DS-2CD2131-I Keeps rebooting when I change from original ports

    For now I am giving up on changing ports on the cameras, I just got the NVR (Hikvision DS-7716NI-SP/16 from Nelly's) and I can do everything I wanted to do. Funny thing is while messing with all of this I really started to like Blue Iris, its only money right?

    DS-2CD2131-I Keeps rebooting when I change from original ports

    We tried a bunch of different ports, nothing worked I am not giving up but I can actually use the cameras just not get the ports changed at the moment so I am going to keep experimenting and trying to get google to figure out why their router is so selective. Thanks everybody I will post back...
