    Reducing Gain through isapi/cgi ?

    Yeah good point Alastair, but I did try that. When I put the new firmware onto the 2nd camera and seen the sliders were there without me having to push xml onto the camera I thought maybe its cached the layout from the first camera. After all, I am using the nvr vhost so as far as the browser is...

    Reducing Gain through isapi/cgi ?

    I know no one cares... but I just told my wife all this and her answer was 'meh'. So I am gonna type it all out here because it absolutely has done my head in. So I have 3 cameras out the front which were all on 5.5.0 firmware. Upgrading to 5.5.53 seen me unable to access the cameras via pale...

    Reducing Gain through isapi/cgi ?

    Well, I dont know what to say... haha this is very odd. Now that I have manually fiddled with the gain, changing it from the default 100 to 60, then switched between image settings "auto-switch" and "scheduled-switch" the gain slider as just appeared out of nowhere! Its there now on both auto...

    Reducing Gain through isapi/cgi ?

    Oh and just found something else: Looks like that is the settings for "auto-switch" not "scheduled-switch". Which is funny because the camera with the earlier firmware was on scheduled-switch. I might just leave it on auto and fiddle with the settings to get it right. Previously I just used to...

    Reducing Gain through isapi/cgi ?

    For anyone who is following: I managed to use SBBcarl's guidance on this and have found where to adjust the night time settings for gain through sniffing the headers to the camera with firmware version 5.5.0. I can now manipulate the settings in the later firmware that have the gain slider...

    Reducing Gain through isapi/cgi ?

    SBBcarl that's awesome thank you for sharing all of this with me. I've got a pi on my network too. Once I figured the proper way to reduce gain I was going to script up a cron as well. I didn't think of sniffing the protocol, I was just blindly poking around, reading. Thanks for your advice...

    Reducing Gain through isapi/cgi ?

    Hello, Sorry for smashing the board with another post. I think it is in addition to my previous post re: firmware 5.5.53 and it being a right balls up of a firmware. Previous post here I didn't think this question belonged with that post. Basically I rolled back to 5.5.0 but I just don't like...

    Firmware 5.5.53 installed, but palemoon not working

    I am still wondering about the technical details as to why the latest (and last for this line of cameras) firmware didn't work with Pale Moon. I am guessing they ditched webcomponants for a different technology? It makes me hesitant to buy any new cameras from Hikvision. I like to just use the...

    Firmware 5.5.53 installed, but palemoon not working

    oh scrap that. It's working now. I think I just had to set my admin password on it via the NVR :D

    Firmware 5.5.53 installed, but palemoon not working

    Well, I found somewhere you could batch upgrade through the NVR with that batch config tool. System->System Management-> IPC upgrade. I chose the .dav file and the camera in question and clicked Upgrade. It took about 5 minutes, quite a long time to complete the update. However I think this is...

    Firmware 5.5.53 installed, but palemoon not working

    The browser cache didn't work unfortunately. I have downloaded the batch configuration tool but it doesn't want to find my cameras through the NVR vhost. It finds the NVR fine. I am guessing it needs to be on the same network segment for it to work. I did have a small PoE switch for such things...

    Firmware 5.5.53 installed, but palemoon not working

    No I didn't delete webcomponants, I still get an image on the camera that didn't get an update so it's all still good. 32 bit palemoon I think, but I'm not at my PC now. I'll check in the morning and report back. Yeah I read during my research into this that upgrading isn't the wisest move...
