I don't have the same NVR but usually you can set what you want shown on the OSD and that would normally work. But if your NVR is ignoring your OSD settings then the only way I know of changing the Camera/Channel name is on the NVR native interface (NOT the NVR web-based interface). On my NVRs...

Where are you changing the camera name? On what device and in which setting page?

No native Hikvision Linux tools available as far as I know. If your are asking will you be able to see live views on Linux browsers - I can't really answer, in my experience live view from some cameras firmware work without a plugin on Linux and/or windows and some just don't (with or without a...

Try going to the storage settings and somewhere there are a couple of "rebuild" options. Do a "rebuild all data" and it might sort your issue, I had something similar recently and that fixed it for me, all previous recordings visible again.

I've only experience with HikVision ANPR cameras. Latest one I have is I think is this 2MP one: https://www.use-ip.co.uk/hikvision-ids-2cd7a26g0-p-izhsy.html we also have several equivalent older models in use. I'm a bit disappointed in the new one, it actually seems worse than the older models...

Thanks again @JB1970 the rebuild all data did the trick exactly like you said. I did see the two rebuild options but wasn't sure what they did, never had any issues before now.

I just randomly checked one of my NVRs playback function today and I am getting the "no record file found" error for all cameras. Panicking a bit as I don't know how long this has been not recording for. Always been fine in the past. All my other NVRs are working fine. iVMS-4200 v3.10.1.5...

@JB1970 sorry to waste your time - this was my mistake, a typo in one of the IPs - doh! I wasted so much time today... So just to clarify, both phone apps work, and both NVRs and cameras work with only port 8000

@JB1970 thanks, that's exactly what I did. e.g. say my external WAN IP is 1.2.3.4 and my NVR is 192.168.0.1 and my camera is 192.168.0.100 My existing (working) rule says forward 1.2.3.4 port 50100 to 192.168.0.1 port 8000 Adding a device 1.2.3.4 port 50100 to the apps works fine - I can see...

I was revisiting this issue/question as our site neighbor asked us about getting access to a couple of our cameras which overlook their land. So I thought I would experiment with one camera to start with by adding a CAMERA user, then opening up the camera port 8000. Do cameras even have a port...

I updated an H8 firmware ANPR camera (iDS-2CD7A26G0/P-IZHSY) to the latest firmware on the UK portal (V5.8.20 231024) But now I see the captured photos have the camera view OSD text overlay included on them (actually over the photo). This is bad for two reasons: 1) It's not necessary as you...

@Kyle I think I have managed to eliminate UNKNOWN reads in daytime. I just zoomed in fully (previously it was mostly zoomed in but not 100%) and also moved the blue crossing line from the middle of the view to a bit lower nearer the camera. However, it's failing to read most plates at night...

Thanks @Kyle I will have a look/read/play and report back with any findings. The camera is mounted securely on the face of a building, and no wind today anyway so I am sure it's not vibration/movement of the camera.

I just installed a new ANPR camera (iDS-2CD7A26G0/P-IZHSY with H8 firmware on v5.7.80) to replace an older failed model. Some previous model HikVision ANPR cameras used to log a "NOPLATE" read in the case where they detected a vehicle but could not read a plate. (older ones did not do this at...

Are you using a gmail "app password"? If not then that could be the reason as gmail and most other similar email services have stopped allowing services like this to authenticate with a normal master email password. It may be that your region/account has only recently been changed by Google...
