I'm trying to figure out how to make the browser save login/password information for my Hikvision (OEM Dertech) NVR. Unit is the current 8-channel model.

No matter what browser I use, I cannot get the system to save the NVR login and password. Chrome saves all of this info for 1-click login to my Mobotix cams, but not the Hivision DVR.

My retailer's support was absolutely useless--twice telling me it was a browser configuration problem and then telling me that it was a "security feature" of the NVR. As you know, blaming security when you can't do something is the ultimate copout (any device that does not force a change from admin/12345 on the first login is NOT designed for security).

At this point, it appears that I may need a browser plugin. I'm just wondering if someone here may have any insight.

PS--This forum looks like a great resource. I found out about it from Network Camera Critic (the same place that I found out about Hikvision outclassing Mobotix re: image quality).
