Hi everyone. I am wondering if it's possible to flash an Ezviz C3N outdoor IP camera to (a suitable) Hikvision firmware? Has anyone tried/achieved this before on this type of camera?

Hello All, We want to install 8 cameras with human/vehicle detection and line crossing. We are looking at AcuSense solution for this. What I understand is, AcuSense can be either supported in camera or in NVR, but AcuSense in camera works better. So we were thinking of using 4-5 AcuSense...

Hi, I've got an Ezviz X5C-8 DVR and a couple of C3Ws cams. I've got root on the DVR and I'm interested if anybody knows how the core software on it works (hicore, I think). As far as I can tell it's basically identical to the normal one bundled with other hikvision products but with certain...

Edit: The issue was finally resolved! Only thanks to the help of the brilliant and kind TonyR. It was because partially the Ethernet wasn’t plugged in the right port, yeah…. But it wouldn’t have worked either way if not configured properly, which Tony helped tremendously with; read through the...
