Hi all,

I'm trying to play a video file made with DS-2CD2035-I using h.265 codec without luck. Tried VLC player and 5K Player the seconds are running but nothing is playing. If going back to h.264 the video files are playing without a problem. I'm still able to view h.265 in IE playback tab but this is not an option.

The camera has 5.4.20 firmware.

What I'm doing wrong and to play h.265 video files?
 
I don't actually know if the 'official' VSplayer from Hikvision is up to date enough to handle h.265 - but it might be worth a try, then we'll all know!
Download is available here if you want to test it : Hangzhou Hikvision Digital Technology Co. Ltd.

Thanks. VS_Player V7.2.0 plays Hikvision h.265 video files successfully.

VLC with the latest updates doesn't play it, don't know why...

GOM Player plays the file as well, just tried it.
 
I have also this problem to play downloaded files from my new DS-2CD2435FWD-IW. I'm using Apple OSX in a MacBook Pro. Most of the times VLC can play but not now. Also with the demuxer set on h.265 manually.
Only thing i can play is on a virtualized Windows10 but sucks performance. I can play the files in VS-Player but can't even convert it to an other playable format (gives an error).
I need an Mac player which can play or an Windows application which can convert it.
 
Try with mpv. mpv.io

I tried mpv but is crashing on the files. No solution.

Another thing I see is that in VSPlayer there are green/red borders around the moving subject. Maybe a normal player can’t play this. Maybe this has to be turned off. But how?
