Has anybody successfully connected Hikvison cameras to Dahua NVR? Both have actual firmware. Can access and configure Hikvison cam on external PoE switch. Can find it and add it on Dahua NVR but cannot see a picture of cam. Neither via internal NVR PoE port nor external PoE switch is working. Both devices are ONVIF enabled. Any ideas would be appreciated.

It may be worth verifying that by querying the camera with ONVIF Device Manager from sourceforge.net
See if you get snapshot and video OK.
Give ODM the same logon credentials - top left of the window.
Thanks, good idea! After a few hours trial and error I could solve the problem. In new firmware of Hikvison camera an additional ONVIF user has to be created at configuration/Network/Advanced Settings. That user then must be used at Dahua NVR OVIF settings.
