    Dahua Camera Corrupt Jpeg Image

    Did you ever get a solution to this issue? I bought my camera from a bricks-and-mortar store (camera model VIP Vision model E96_VSIPC-8DIRG2, firmware V2.820.101B001.0.R, Build Date: 2021-07-23), so I'm hoping it's not a Chinese firmware issue. Only a couple of the various cameras I have are...

    Hikvision Config / Login - javascript woes

    Camera: DS-2CD2332-I Firmware: V5.2.0 build 140721 It seems that in the old IE browser, the login process has a javascript bug, so I can't login (name and password is correct, just the login button never triggers). But if I use a more modern browser (Chrome/Edge) the login javascript works...

    Mounting multiple 940nm LED bulbs

    Appreciate for all the detailed replies - thank you. I noticed while bench testing the 940's that they didn't appear to light up the nearby area very much, but I didn't have some 850s nearby to compare with (also it wasn't night time - just pulled the shades in the shed). I might also think...

    Mounting multiple 940nm LED bulbs

    in short - My question is whether anyone has any experience or even just ideas on the best way to mount a lot of fiddly little LEDs. Right now I have a kind of writer's block on how to put this together from a DIY perspective. As background / explanation - I've tried the IR lights in my...

    Dahua NVR H.265 Auto Switch

    Does HA transcode for your Chrome viewing to work? I was hoping to stream straight from the NVR to browsers on a few devices around the home using a basic web page, but I can't find an NVR URL that streams using just HTML5. Sounds like you're pulling streams directly from the cameras.

    DS-2CD3345F-I, Language Mismatch and No Resource

    I did try that tool, but didn't have much luck getting a working stream to begin with. I think it uses a separate set of user credentials, from memory. I'll try again with a bit more patience. I'm not averse to trying these kinds of steps. Reverse engineering is a great read. While I'm...

    DS-2CD3345F-I, Language Mismatch and No Resource

    Putting together the following NVR and cameras - 1 x DS-7804N-K1/4P NVR running v3.4.90 (English, hacked) firmware. 3 x DS-2CD3345F-I cameras running v5.5.12 (Chinese) firmware. Language Mismatch (solved) Tried Hikvision and ONVIF protocols, but they show language mismatch. Bit surprised at...

    Standalone Java app for dedicated live view with Instant Replay

    I was pondering something slightly similar to CrazyFin, but probably just as low a priority -- for the app to go very low CPU/fps activity when minimised. Similar to when lost focus, it would essentially give the BI server less load when it isn't actually showing content to the viewer...

    Standalone Java app for dedicated live view with Instant Replay

    Not sure where the java app is getting the list of camera names from? All I am seeing in the Camera Layout list are two cameras in a group called "back". Running BI v4.5.2.3 x64 on Win7 with Java app v2.7. Cleared the folder of all but the .jar file to reset it, but problem persisted...

    Blue Iris 4 - Clips and Archiving question

    I find all cameras in one folder to be convenient - all footage is in the one location, limited only by disk size. I tried setting up a cascading folder structure based on now+X days where X was a different range for about 5 folders, but it just became disorderly. In the end I just set larger...

    Lens change on DS-2CD2335-I ?

    Multiple cameras. Some not as obvious as the Hikvision turrets.

    Lens change on DS-2CD2335-I ?

    Having been to court a few times, my experience has been that any time the target is not on camera, their legal representative will paint a totally innocent reason / behaviour / activity is going on than what actually happens. So by way of example, instead of just seeing the letterbox (and...

    Lens change on DS-2CD2335-I ?

    Although there were a few positions that would focus close objects, once an object at a reasonable distance was in focus it was fine for the whole scene. More than enough friction to hold my new lens. A mount position with lots of vibration might need some glue I guess? Large field of view is...

    Lens change on DS-2CD2335-I ?

    If anyone else is interested, the procedure to do a lens swap for this model camera is as follows: 1. Have the camera on a clean, even surface, unplugged. 2. Unscrew the locking tab screw and remove the turret shroud, and metal base 3. Unscrew the three screws holding the two hemispheres of...

    Reset button for Hikvision turret? (DS-2CD2335-I)

    Any pointers on where the reset button is on the DS-2CD2335-I ? Trying to get it back online with a factory reset and not having much luck. I saw the thread below as well as a teardown, but newer cameras don't seem to have the same innards? hikvision ds-2cd2032-I unreachable after port change...

    Lens change on DS-2CD2335-I ?

    Two questions: 1. Does anyone sell the genuine Hikvision 2.8mm lens for this camera? 2. Has anyone done a lens change? Is it very complicated? I saw some tear-downs that look like I could accomplish - I've wired my house with cat6 and done hardware changes on servers, PCs and laptops in the...

    Hikvision Product Comparison

    Updated the main tab on the spreadsheet. No doubt the links will eventually get out of date again (someone tell Hikvision about "301 Redirect"!) and of course there's lots of other cameras & permutations possible, but hopefully it helps.

    Hikvision DS-2CD2332(D)-I replacement DS-2CD2335(D)-I

    Thanks for the quick reply @Enabler -- just a quick question though: what os, browser and version are you using to manage your camera settings? And I'm fairly sure I don't want to install firmware on these cameras that is Chinese-only (or can I set them back to English after the upgrade?)...

    Hikvision DS-2CD2332(D)-I replacement DS-2CD2335(D)-I

    Anyone had problems changing the Image/OSD Settings options under model: DS-2CD2335-I / Firmware Version V5.3.6 build 151221 / English? Anytime I hit save, I just get "Parameter Error" in Chrome (even if I change nothing). Using a portable Opera Browser that supports WebComponents - returns...

    Number plates - more megapixels? lens choice? settings?

    Very much appreciate all the replies - been reading up on the Huisun 10x threads (specs page?). Very different look compared to the hik turret but can't deny adding PTZ would probably put me into early stages of addiction (4 hiks cameras so far! :) Will look at pricing - definitely a fan of...

    Number plates - more megapixels? lens choice? settings?

    I'm very satisfied with Hikvision, including several good outcomes after thefts. Each time I was asked if there was "a better view of the number plate?". I'm not permitted to post imagery but suffice to say I'm struggling to improve the footage. Vehicles are only between 10-15 metres from the...

    Aliexpress sellers not allowed to sell hikvision any more??

    There's hundreds of other sellers. If I had to guess, they're monitoring this forum (and probably the comparison spreadsheet), and taking action based on what they find. Given the prices I've seen some people quote this stuff for here in Australia, I'm not surprised the old resellers are...

    Performance and general questions

    Any chance the hard drive had spun down into a dormant state? The time frame looks similar to that for a hard drive to spin up. Plenty of windows subsystems block on that and get nowhere until everything recovers a few seconds later. Control Panel\Hardware and Sound\Power Options\Edit Plan...

    viewing blue iris remotely from another computer continuously

    I'd be interested in a more advanced remote connection - i.e. configure the remote instance of BI to point to the directory of the primary instance that is running on a dedicated server. Make it a drop-down configuration, and you could manage multiple servers, mainly as an image monitoring /...

    Standalone Java app for dedicated live view with Instant Replay

    I see you're aware "Non-LAN only" authentication isn't functioning; I'll keep an eye out for improvements in BI for this. A new issue I've just started getting is no response at all when launching the jar file - just instant crash without any GUI. I launched via a console and saw the error...
