Firmware 5.2.0 in English

Hi All,

Firstly thanks uploader for this convenient fw, I was able to upgrade DS-2CD3132-I camera initially on 5.2.1 fw through tftp and change from chinese only to multi-language a couple weeks ago.

The problem is I recently got a new camera which is same model but manufactured on Nov 28th 2014 and on V5.2.3 build 141024 fw. After installing the raptor firmware, the camera is still in Chinese language only. Did Hik make any changes recently to their cameras that obsolete this fw for multi-language support? And is there any other solution that I can use for the new camera?

Thanks!

LL

I have the same issue with, just downgrade to 5.1.2 http://wrightwoodsurveillance.com/forum/thread-73.html, and do the fix http://www.cctvforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=19&t=40240, then fix it to english version

lingnau: Thanks for the link to the TPTPD Firmware Update Tool I was looking all over the place for it! Also FYI the Official Tool link no longer works for me... it takes me to the Europe website page where I can click on Download and nothing happens.

 
my tftpd32 will not work either. I tried your version it just connects and says test device and stops...Turned off my antivirus, firewall, ran as administrator, checked all numbers, still nothing...

Hey does anyone know what the URL for the snapshot is on 5.2 on a DS-2CD2132-I? I had this setup in my Vera Lite and using the IP:PORT in the settings and it worked using URL /onvif/snapshot before my upgrade (not sure but think it was 5.1) but now this is not working. I knew it worked when I tested the URL http://IP:PORT/onvif/snapshot in a browser and got a picture.


I tried the http://ip:port/Streaming/channels/1.../ip:port/Streaming/channels/1/?auth=xxxxxxx==, http://ip:port/onvif/snapshot/?auth=xxxxxxx==, and http://ip:port/onvif/snapshot/preview?auth=xxxxxxx== in a browser with and without the == at the end and numerous others from here (http://www.ispyconnect.com/man.aspx?n=HIKVISION) and get "This page is unavailable" on all of them. I used an online base 64 encoder in the format username:password and that seems fine as I tried it on several sites and got the same string.


I am out of town a lot and kind of desperate to get this working again as I have Vera Alerts (a Vera app) send me an alert when the doorbell is rung with a picture. When I get a package delivered I can see it and have my neighbor grab it for me if I am out of town because packages have been stolen in my neighborhood.


If anybody can help or has any ideas I would GREATLY appreciate it!!

Try this:

Code:
http://IPADDRESS/videostream.asf?user=[USERNAME]&pwd=[PASSWORD]&resolution=64&rate=0


http://IPADDRESS:554/videostream.cgi?rate=0&user=[USERNAME]&pwd=[PASSWORD]


http://IPADDRESS:554/cgi-bin/snapshot.cgi?loginuse=[USERNAME]&loginpas=[PASSWORD]

I never knew you could do that with Hikvision's cameras. Got my attention.


Try this:

Code:
http://IPADDRESS/videostream.asf?user=[USERNAME]&pwd=[PASSWORD]&resolution=64&rate=0


http://IPADDRESS:554/videostream.cgi?rate=0&user=[USERNAME]&pwd=[PASSWORD]


http://IPADDRESS:554/cgi-bin/snapshot.cgi?loginuse=[USERNAME]&loginpas=[PASSWORD]

I've tried it here and none of those URL's worked(After adapting IP, name and password). :(
 
If you want to see the right commands, simply use Onvif Device Manager and the command will be automaticly displayed Under the video :



This simple tool is very usefull for all Onvif IP cams.
You can made a lot of things, change params, etc...
Hope this helps.

Hi everyone,

Sorry for the delay in responding but shoveling snow and family stuff yesterday kept me busy. Thanks all for the input from everyone (especially the Onvif Device Manager which is pretty cool!) but I am still in the same boat. I have tried most every possible combo of links suggested but to no avail with this working in my Micasaverde Vera Lite like it used to.

Don I am going to contact you in the next day or so to purchase your code and support as what I see you doing HERE is pretty amazing to me and am still trying to go through it all to fully understand it. I am only hopeful that I'd be able to pull the image I used to have when my doorbell was rung with this setup. FYI Don you should head over to MiCasaVerde Forums as there are always guys looking to get their cameras working in Vera and there is not a ton of great info there. You might be able help out and get some people to do your embedding setup. Oh and thanks for your service by the way!

Anyway a little background on the Vera Lite setup is here. This is the camera settings as it was when it worked before the 5.2 upgrade on my DS-2CD2132-I.

I have a doorbell hooked to a door sensor and have it set to alert when the open switch is closed. The other component is an app called VeraAlerts that intercepts that alert and modifies it to attach the picture and redirects it to the app on my phone. I used to get the alert and the picture before my doorbell even stopped ringing.

I'm not sure what can be done when I do your setup Don to make this work because I also am going to setup a camera inside my house pointing at the front door to take a snapshot using the same method above when friends and family enter in their personal code on my Kwikset Z-Wave Deadbolt to make sure it's the right person who entered.

Again thanks for all the help and suggestions everyone and Don I will reach out in a few days or so when I have some time to really dig into your embedding setup.

I've never heard of this "Vera" but anyway if you want a screenshot of the current image on the camera:
http://admin:12345@192.168.100.64/Streaming/Channels/1/picture

I would guess:

URL: /Streaming/Channels/1/picture
user: User
Password: password
MAC: no idea?
IP: 192.168.100.64:80

Try that.

Thanks lingnau. The URL http://admin:12345@192.168.100.64/Streaming/Channels/1/picture finally got me to get a pic in the browser!! Unfortunately I tried several combinations of that you suggested in the Vera setup and still no joy.

Now that I have that though maybe I can shoot over to the Vera forums and see if someone there can take this and make it into something usable.

Vera Lite by the way is a Z-Wave Home Automation controller seen HERE. You can do some pretty amazing stuff with different apps in Vera and numerous different Z-Wave devices. You can even use TASKER on your Android device with some Tasker plug-ins to have some real fun controlling your house and other things.

Thanks for taking the time to take a look and for the suggestion! Hopefully this will get me on the right track and I won't need to dump down the firmware on my camera so this will work again!

That/This URL that worked. Was already included in my post here much earlier. But you posted that none of the URL's worked:

Hi Don,

Yeah I was up late and staring at it too long I guess and missed that in your post or typed something wrong in. Actually I was probably putting the port in there (not port 80) which I thought I had to do and that didn't work. That and I was going back and forth between this and setting up KODI\STMC on my Amazon Fire TV so I was a little distracted. Sorry about that.

Anyway I posted my issue on the Vera boards and I finally got the answer I needed and the camera is back up and running in my Vera.

When I first got the cam the Vera IP Address settings did NOT need the http:// and port number and used the /Streaming/Channels/1/picture URL. I did my first first cam firmware update a while back and that config broke. The fix at that time was adding the http:// and port number to that field and using the /onvif/snapshot URL.

Long and short of it is after this 5.2 upgrade I needed to remove the http:// and port in that field and go back to the /Streaming/Channels/1/picture URL just like it was when I purchased the camera and before my first firmware upgrade. I have no idea why it changed the first time and why it changed again this time, which makes zero sense to me, but a guy on the Vera boards pointed me in the right direction on that and like I said it works now and that is great as I am heading out of town later this week and am expecting packages!

On another note I purchased your zip file and support a little while ago and trying to play with that now on my Hostgator site. Not working yet but think I may be close. I'm checking with Hostgator to see if the ports I am using are open or not. I will drop you a line, probably next week sometime if, more likely when, I need some help with this and have some time. What days/times are best for you?

Thanks again for all the help Don and to everyone else as well!!
