    PTZ camera installation problems

    SADP will find Hikvision IP devices on any subnet - you don't have to change the PC IP address, it uses broadcasts.

    Bricked DS-2CD2342WD-I TFTP Firmware loads ok but still bricked

    Agreed. You are observing network traffic, and the tftp updater is working OK. The network is fine. There is another reason the camera isn't fully booting, and the serial console output will likely show why.

    Bricked DS-2CD2342WD-I TFTP Firmware loads ok but still bricked

    To get more information on why firmware updates don't bring the camera back to fully booting up, you could connect to the serial console. Hikvision's cameras are pretty chatty on the console. The camera will have a serial console connector that looks like this example ...

    Hik vision DS-2CD2342WD-I

    That's good! And well done for managing to pull the configuration file. I'm sorry, but I've never used HikConnect (if that's what you are referring to), it's not something I'd trust. But check the PTZ has correct network settings, such as the default gateway.

    Hik vision DS-2CD2342WD-I

    That 5.3.3 version of camera firmware has a backdoor security vulnerability that should allow the configuration file to be exported without credentials. If that works - the configuration file can be decrypted and decoded to reveal the admin password in plain text. Suggestion : Set the PC IP...

    DS-2CD2342WD-I Password reset

    After a 'reset to factory default settings' the camera goes to the 'inactive' state, which then requires a new admin password to be created to change it to the 'active' state.

    DS-2CD2342WD-I Password reset

    Ok. That version of firmware is too new to have the ability to extract the configuration file by that method, unfortunately. The vulnerability was fixed after being widely exploited.

    DS-2CD2342WD-I Password reset

    Are you sure the IP address is correct? And what version of firmware is it (SADP)?

    Hik-vision TFTP server stops at ..transmitting

    The Hikvision tftp updater does not handle firmware files larger than 32MB. It looks like the firmware for your camera is nearly 300MB. The fix for that problem is to use the Scott Lamb Python2 clone of the tftp updater - no filesize limit. https://github.com/scottlamb/hikvision-tftpd

    Swann's home security camera recordings could be hijacked ( FLIR also )

    OK, you're on. Now, where did I put my zapper? Got it - done!

    Swann's home security camera recordings could be hijacked ( FLIR also )

    Maybe, maybe not. If so, biding it's time a bit since registration. There's usual just a few minutes of a gap.

    Hikvision camera admin password reset tool

    That version of firmware has the backdoor fixed that allowed unauthenticated access to the configuration of the camera, so this method no longer works for it.

    Hacked DAHUA cam and added that names

    Of course. But only when the entire internet is allowed to access the cameras when port forwarding has been configured. Which is convenient, for external access, but such a risky and dumb thing to do.

    Hikvision nvr dont work with cisco ip camera

    Yes, that's correct, if the ONVIF port is 80, it's not shown in the URI.

    Hikvision nvr dont work with cisco ip camera

    554 will be the RTSP port, not the 'ONVIF port'.

    Random beeping from HikVision DS-7608NI-E2/8P/A

    Against what attributes? These may indicate a failing HDD. This will simply be read/write activity. IE11 does still exist in Win10 and Win11, just a bit hidden. Lots of posts here on how to gain access to it.

    Hikvision nvr dont work with cisco ip camera

    The 'ONVIF port' can be seen in the URI at the bottom of the Identification panel. The RTSP string can be seen at the bottom of the Live Video panel.

    Hikvision nvr dont work with cisco ip camera

    Have you specified the 'ONVIF port' as shown in ONVIF Device Manager? Sometimes it's not 80. Have you tried if it will connect via RTSP using a Custom protocol, using the RTSP string from ONVIF Device Manager?

    Random beeping from HikVision DS-7608NI-E2/8P/A

    These tests are quite broad-brush, and will show as 'OK' even when the drive has had to re-allocate failed sectors or is unable to complete an operation. Unless you've already done so - dig down and check out the actual values of the SMART attributes for any counts that indicate the drive has...

    Just for fun - IMX307 starlight camera module - Hik compatible.

    Looking back at my notes - I never did get any stock firmware for the board. But I did dump the flash partitions, and take a look around the filesystem, see the attachment. A root shell can be had by connecting to the serial console, and interrupting the bootloader and modifying the bootargs...

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

    The tool certainly allowed early versions of the firmware to be unpacked, inspected, understood, tweaked and repacked. But Hikvision has progressively improved how the firmware is packed and protected from tampering to the point where it's no longer feasible to modify it now.

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

    Changing the firmware will not change the camera from being a Chinese model - unless the firmware has been specifically hacked to ignore the internal stamp applied during manufacture of the camera that specifies it as Chinese.
