    ANNKE I61DR 2MP (Hikvision Cube Clone)

    ok, let me ask this another way... cloud storage solution hatered aside, what is the most cost effective service that works with hikvision cubes? my need is one cam under 100mb (overwritten) under a week retention. i'm already using microsd but want some not local lan offsite solution.

    has anyone gotten hikvision's "Camcloud" monthly service to work on their annke cube or any hikvision 2mp or 4mp branded cube cams? Hikvision | Camcloud please share your experience with this here, thanks. Plans and Pricing Summary | Camcloud $6/mo seems reasonable if you can't afford to...

    ANNKE I61DR 2MP (Hikvision Cube Clone)

    Vorlon - thanks for posting your 4mp cube versus 2mp cube observations here. my guess is the 4mp suffers because it's the most x.264 compression stream over wifi 2.4ghz a single channel can handle, so it was silly hikvision didn't make it dual channel or 5.0ghz wifi - the radio chips are...

    how can i crop the region of interest to become my main stream?

    thanks chev, even if i did, it would only crop the center of the view, not crop off center as i need here. the camera is mounted in a way that limits how much i can angle it, thus a need to crop. alstair, 5.5.4 could make sense for the x.265 encode, but i specifically want mine working at...

    how can i crop the region of interest to become my main stream?

    thanks alastairs. if i bought the hikvision 4mp cube, do you believe it would include the "target cropping" feature page in the firmware that the annke 2mp cube seems to lack, and make some cropped region my main stream so i don't keep recording so much useless screen real estate? or are these...

    how can i crop the region of interest to become my main stream?

    due to limits on where i can mount my annke cube on hikvision 5.4.5 firmware nearly half the screen area is useless to me, so i want to crop a region and only record on event that area. no matter what i try on the ROI tab, i can't get it working. is there something else i have to do on other...

    Fullscreen iVMS4200 in Main View

    google around for a keyboard+mouse recorder and script playback tool, a lot of gamers use this kind of thing to run their in game gold farming bots. install the tool, record how YOU manually do what you want, test the playback works as you want, then make that tool+script part of your startup...

    skyway, i'm sure fenderman does not need my help here, but... hik connect is able to maintain a connection between your roaming phone and the camera because it's using the hikvision authentication server to maintain the link despite whatever else your router may be doing. no matter what you...

    Solving some NFS issues on Hikvision cameras

    i'm not sure exactly how, but after uninstalling and reinstalling everything a few times, and following a few anonymous user faqs, i finally got the cube to see the Allegro NFS that's running on my Win10 pc, however now that it sees it and recognizes it's capacity it now won't format/write to it...

    help on most accurate event for inside opposite an entrance door

    i'm surprised you'd suggest this given that pir will detect all areas around the cam, not a specific visually isolated zone, so pir is the most useless feature for this application. smart event : intrusion detection has the same problem as basic event : motion detection they both trigger when...

    help on most accurate event for inside opposite an entrance door

    i want to install a 5.4.5 firmware wifi cube cam above a closet door 6' opposite a main doorway, which will be powered by a nearby closet light socket. the objective is to only capture whoever enters and exists the apartment and what they may be carrying. i do not want to capture anyone near...

    Solving some NFS issues on Hikvision cameras

    alastairs, thanks for taking the time to try it. disabling the firewall completely was done early in the game. could you please post the HDD Management screen showing the share capacity and format availability? thank you. at least now i (and others) see this working, and have a free way to nfs...

    Solving some NFS issues on Hikvision cameras

    thanks alastairs, but if you manage to get it working (a win10 nfs server so your hikvision can nas to it) then post your settings. going back and forth with you guessing what i may have done or not would be a colossal waste of both our time.

    Solving some NFS issues on Hikvision cameras

    has anyone gotten any Windows 10* based NFS share simulation to work with their hikvision cube cameras? i really don't want to invest hundreds of dollars in a Linux (share size limiting) NAS until i see it working first. so far I've tried Allegro NFS 6.3.3, but i don't know enough about Linux...

    iVMS-4200 Client can download all the mp4 clips and jpg screens through it's "remote playback" tab, look in the lower right for an icon that looks like a video cam with a down arrow, click that then select the camera and time period and it will dump all included clips to a folder on your local...

    ANNKE I61DR 2MP (Hikvision Cube Clone)

    observations while doing similar; yes, as many have noticed the ethernet and wifi have different macs thus dhcp assigned different ips. this is common in a lot of devices where ethernet+5ghz wifi share the same mac, while 2.4ghz(used by this cam) usually has a different mac. i assume this is...

    Hikvision 4mp Cube - reduce number of emails from PIR

    this may not apply to every situation, but how i would handle this issue is to NOT use PIR at all. disable ALL events and only use Smart Event - Line Crossing Detection then define on the camera preview image what virtual line needs to be crossed to get an email. this is a much better way to go...

    of course - getting to 5.4.5 in stages is the first thing i did after first plugging in the camera. i only post here hoping someone had gotten a clip Playback capable app working by now. i guess most people here simply use these cheap cameras for live monitoring not recorded. i've "mastered"...

    i was about to factory reset my camera in hopes of getting it to work with annke's app when something very fundamental occurred to me. once it's working on my local lan, will it then allow me to change the ip: port so then i can access my camera remotely while roaming away from home...

    hikvision support opened a ticket but only sent me a canned reply full of links to general faqs around their websight - no surprise there. annke support got back to me within 24 hours or 2pm china time, and seemed to be an actual human addressing my specific inquiry, so more than most posting...

    ANNKE I61DR 2MP (Hikvision Cube Clone)

    thanks digger as i suspected, they concluded that unless my nas can cap the share size well under 500gb or less, so i'm out of luck. i could throw a small hdd into my win10 pc and define a nas running in the background using "manage storage spaces", so if i experiment with that and have any...

    thanks 5252 - obviously i have been reviewing the manual long before posting (the 1mp and 3mp hikvision manuals are the same) regardless, for someone not already familiar with security and alarm system gui, getting anything to work here can be frustrating. no matter what, it refuses to accept...

    thanks 5252 the pulsing persists, but at least i know i've tried everything... new question; has anyone gotten their i61dr to dvr video files (triggered by motion) to the microSD or to a local network NAS ? I do not want to have to run any sort of DVR app on a PC or my NAS console, rather I...

    does anyone remember where the pal:ntsc setting is? i remember changing it - now i can't find it again. i'm trying to get rid of this annoying pulse effect - and matching frame=i.frame does not seem to fix it.
