Can't liveview in browser

[Spookiepower]

I got an old DS-2CD2532F-I where I can't get the liveview in a browser to work. I have downloaded the file (WebComponents.exe) but it does not work. I have tried Firefox, Edge and Chrome browser

But I also got a newer DS-2CD2345FWD-I where liveview works fine, but only in Edge browser.

Is there anything I can do ?

Download and install the 32 bit version of Pale Moon browser; that Active-X plug-in (WebComponents.exe) should download from the cam and install OK.

Did it work?
Let us know, if you would.

No it does not work. But I don't get the message about downloading the plugin

TIme to try trusty Internet Explorer that these types of cameras were centered around...

Just tried Internet explorer and it does not work. Could it be that it is an old camera I got ? The newer camera I have does work fine in Edge

Go into Internet Explorer and delete the add-ons/extensions and then try the camera again and let it download the component from the camera. I suspect a newer version is in there that the camera doesn't recognize.

And try substream just in case it is a bandwidth issue with mainstream.

Depending on the version of Windows, I suspect your IE will be quietly reverting to Edge.

If so, in Edge, use
Settings | Reload this page in Internet Explorer mode
for the camera IP address, and when it does, select the 'Always open in Internet Explorer mode' selector and click Done.

Ich hatte das Problem auch. Habe das mit IE Tab, einer Browsererweiterung (add on) für Chrome und Edge gelöst. So sind alle Funktionen wieder verfügbar.

FWIW, this is the above post translated from German to English by Google:
