I've had a DS-7608N-E2/8P (Chinese model with English firmware, only option I had at the time) for a little over a year and I've been having some issues with it since day 1. The firmware version is V3.3.4 build 150616, the NVR region is "RR" and there are 6 Hikvision cameras (various Chinese...

I have a 7608 NVR (FW 3.3.4) with a mix of 2335 and 2345 cameras (all FW 5.3.6). I change some of the encoding settings for the cameras (frame rate, bitrate, video quality) and they keep reverting to the original (default) values. Sometimes the settings for one of the cameras stick but as soon...

Not sure if this has been posted elsewhere: effective March 10th 2016, the previous duty/tax free threshold of $200 for personal mail shipments to the US has increased to $800. That means you folks no longer have to order one camera at a time and you can save a few bucks by shipping multiple...

Is there any way to check whether a Hikvision camera has 120dB WDR or DWDR without using the model number? Because apparently the specs listed on the website are quite often wrong

I vaguely remember reading on the forum that the DS-7608NI got an upgrade in bandwidth from 50Mbps to 80Mbps with a recent firmware. Anybody know if the DS-7608N also got a similar firmware and bandwidth upgrade? And if you are aware of the firmware for the DS-7608NI that I'm talking about (but...

Do the Hikvision DS-76XXN/NI NVRs reset the POE ports if there is a software reboot? Is there even a manual/automatic reboot feature on these NVRs for that matter? I need to know if it's possible to power cycle the cameras through the NVR before getting one.

All else being equal, if you had to choose between a PTZ camera with a higher optical zoom or another one with a higher resolution, which would you pick? For example, 10x 2MP or 20x 1MP? And in what scenarios would you pick one over the other? The main things I can think of are: night vision...

If you own a Huisun camera (any model), could you please state the model number/type (e.g. mini dome, speed dome, bullet) and whether it supports the Hikvision protocol. I'm aware that the popular mini bullet has the protocol but I'm not 100% sure about other Huisun cameras. Thanks!

I have some questions about Hikvision NVRs in general and some specific models in particular. For those who own or are familiar with what NVR specs actually mean, can you please shed some light on the following (apologies in advance if this has been asked before or some of this seems stupid)...

Hello everyone, I'd appreciate some input and feedback from people who have some experience with Hikvision hardware. I want to upgrade the analogue CCTV system at my parent's house in a couple of months. I will be going with the Hikvision DS-7108N-SN/P 8 channel POE NVR which offers the best...
