    Daunting task

    From what I am finding out, HikVision cameras like working with HikVision software. The best tip I can give someone who is looking into buying a new set of cameras, especially if you are new to the process, is to buy from an American company, there are a few people on this forum who can send you...

    Hikvision DS-2CD2032-I Single Port Forwarding ? for Remote Access

    As far as I know because I have been struggling with very similar issues to view the HikVision cameras, by itself with no other software you have to open the RTSP Port(default 554) and the server port(default 8000). Of course you still need to open a web port for it to work, either 80 or 443...

    Something I am currently going through with these cameras compared to my 2132s are in the settings I cant seem to find the MicIn option under the sound settings.

    Is it worth buying grey market or Chinese version of Hikvision cameras?

    I am currently dealing with the worst case scenario. I have 40 cameras up and running and am struggling to get a feature working. There is no support for these cameras by the company because China sends you to US and the US tell you to kick rocks because they are Chinese cameras. Never again...

I have been adding them via their internal, local IP. 192.168.1.X. While doing this I get Live View Failed every single time when I try...

    Hikvision settings

    Yes you can go to the cameras web page or once you add the camera to iVMS you can, under device settings, go to remote configuration and then image. In image you will be able to change all sorts of settings like camera name and where its located on the cameras main view.

    I am currently having issues with quite a few of my cameras. They are Hikvision DS-2CD2135F cameras and according to the paperwork I have seen from them you should be able to attach an external mic to the camera for recording purposes. I am able to attach the mic just fine but in the cameras...

    Hikvision iVMS-4200 PCNVR / RTSP No Sound

    The url I am using currently to make it work for me is: rtsp://USERNAME:PASSWORD@EXTERNAL-IP:554 Try this becuase if you are getting audio to the camera while you are in iVMS then it should be configured correct. DISCLAIMER: I am also fairly new to IP Cameras, but this is just what worked for me.

    New Hikvision Bullets DS-2CD2T32

    Sorry to necro this thread once again, but this will help reinforce something I am pondering right now. So what you do is leave the internal port at the default 8000 for device or 80 for http, and then change the external port to whatever you want so that when you try to access the camera or...
