I received my HIKVISION DS7108N-SN/P from taobao " Chinese website ".
The problem is the web interface come with English language fine, but TV interface come only with Chinese !
Any ideas, how to put English language on TV interface?
My NVR information:
Use the firmware in my signature below, you should be able to use the web gui to update as your on the same firmware, if not you'll have to tftp it on.
Yep that's the one.
And welcome to the forum, don't just pop in for fix,
Take your time and have a read, you will need it with your NVR and camera's
Looks like your using the wrong firmware, but after the update you have to close tftp program before the reboot.
what firmware is one the camera sticker?
And date of manufacture too.
I've written some Python to extract the files from the DAV files, which works on v5.05 firmware:

It is easy to do the work that has already been done.
Try the new version of firmware or anything else inside. Hehe.
bit-twiddler has already blown away.
Well, yes, but without the original tool being open, even that isn't possible for a number of people. The header of the files I have differ slightly to the original Hikvision ones, so the original tool was no use.
I think you are being clever. Without using the original, you might not know the purpose of the header fields.
However, it does not matter. Hiktools over - now he needs eXtra instruments.
You can show yourself. But it will be much harder. And I will not give you the original tool. ))
Ok, then your stuck I'm afraid, as this is a cramfs camera so the downgrader does not work on it.
But you can still add it as onvif camera.
Go into the camera setup and change plug and play to manual, then protocol from Hikvision to ONVIF then you will get the video feed.
That's a bit condescending don't you think? It's your decision to not share the source for your original tool, but there's no reason to put down someone else work when there is value to it - that is, at least its open and others can learn from it.
I tried that, by changing to ONVIF nothing working! but I tried to change it as a custom numbers and 2 cams working with me the others doesn't want to work I wait them more than 10 minutes.
Another thing I found is the cameras are working also with internal internet connecting, I mean from NVR to cameras without connecting the NVR with modem!
Use this firmware is doesn't care about the camera's region

I use web interface, " Upgrading Failed "
The tool is free, and it works well. Source code is not necessary for its operation.
What do you personally do not have enough?
Maybe you do not correctly interpret me.
I am not objecting to the fact that someone is doing something ... but the source code useless.
New protective mechanisms uses a different algorithm - and this knowledge will be more useful to you than the source.
without @wzhick ''s work I could not have got things to work, now take a look at the sticky section and see how many people have been helped if you add all mine ane his together, it's all because of him and Hiktools.
Now Hiktools has had it life, we all wait until a new tools comes along, if you want to learn about Hiktools go back over his posts,
Yes you could decompile, but all the information is there in his posts.
