So I have a customer that wants me to download footage from about 15 or more cameras for 17 days! How do you even do that? If it can be done how do you calculate the size thumb drive needed? Ive only downloaded clips not full days.

A customer wants to add two cameras to watch the cash drawers in a bar. Pretty dark place in the evening. Drop ceiling about about 4-5 ft. above POS height. There is a POS on either side of this bar about mid way. Hard to see in pictures. Currently I have all Hikvision cameras on this system...

Just as the title states. This NVR has two monitors attached. HDMI & VGA. They are both set to view multi cameras all the time. They keep reverting back to a black screen then single camera (1st camera of 20) view every couple weeks. Go into the NVR reset the settings and all is good for a...

So I have been installing cameras a quite a few car dealers lately. The newer dealerships do not want any cameras hung on the exterior of the buildings because of finishes etc. That leaves me with the roofs for exterior shots (other than light poles which we do use as well). In the past I have...

OK SO I switched my home system over to Hik Connect. Everything went well with the registration etc. I can see my cameras on my phone and tablet. However when I go to logon over Explorers browser I can't hit the page to logon. It states the address (IP) can't be reached. It did work for a bit...

I have two customers that have 20 & 14 cameras. They all need to move to the Hik - Connect platform. I know that I have to upgrade each ones NVR's firmware first as they are older versions. My 1st question - Is there a way to string firmware upgrades to the cameras or do they all have to be...

If so I can't find them. If not why would they make the cameras and not the brackets?

Most of this is coppied from another forum but it hits the nail on the head for me. It seems that the (boolean) work around for FireFox has come to an end. I can no longer remote into my clients from my PC. The work around did work with my HikVisions on the latest Firefox, but will definitely...

Anybody else having issues with their Hiddns sites? I know Hik is phasing them out but older ones are supposed to still work. I can't get into any of my customers or my own remotely using Hiddns.

As of today I can not access any of my client sites on DDNS. It asks me to down load a new plugin which I did. Installed it with browser closed. Re opened browser and it asks me to download the plugin again? Happens in Firefox as well as IE. I can access everything through the phone app no problem.

I have a customer that wants a camera at the end of his driveway. Here's the issue. The driveway is a winding 1300 foot long driveway through woods. No power, no line of sight from home to driveway end. Getting power out there may be a possibility as he is probably getting a gate as well. I'm at...

I have three cameras at a site that when the image switch's to black and white at night they turn really blurry and have a horrible image.The following day they will be fine when they switch over? Now I know about IR bleed and issues like that. These have been fine for almost a year now and just...

So I have a Hikvision 2132 2.8mm cam on a commercial site. Camera looks at a parking lot and walkway. Last night they had a car stolen from there. A flatbed came and scooped up a Yukon. My question is would an IR Illuminator helped here or should I be looking for a different model camera for...

I have a Hikvision 9632NI-ST NVR installed at commercial customers building. Last Thursday someone ran off the road and through the property tearing up the lawn. I went to retrieve the footage and that portion is missing? I know that I have heard that this can happen if you use PC hard drives in...

I have a quote I am putting together for a job. This is for outdoor cameras. I normally use the 2132's 2.8mm on buildings. This customers has two incoming gates that are set back a ways from the entrance for trucks to enter. He isn't necessarily looking to capture license plates but want a good...

I have a 2132 set up on an 8 port Hikvision NVR. Just one camera and I can't view it on HiDDNS in mainstream? Loads in substream fine. When I log into the camera itself under camera management I can view it in Mainstream? Doesn't make sense to me.

Is there a way to tell how many people are logging in remotely through HiDDNS? Just completed a 19 camera job and it seems he customer or should I say one person in particular is just handing out the phone app and login info to whoever he wants. I know I can curb his privileges to just viewing...

NEMA box with POE switch and DIN rail power supply.

New guy just getting involved in the technical aspects of the camera world. Have installed them for quite some time but never took the dive into the technical world. Brian

First off I am a newby to the technical side of the camera world. I have been installing them for years for a company but don't do much past just that. I am new to this NVR. I have only worked with servers for cameras in the past. A couple question if I may...

Have not found a way to do this? Some say take the camera apart but I don't think that's right. If I default a NVR with it plugged in will it default the cameras as well?
