I have installed 2 4k Hikvision cameras that work perfectly I bought a new camera which is active and working on the NVR but when I go to live view it on screen it only shows previous 2 and get an error message "no more IP camera allowed" when I try adding it into the view page but shows up...

Hi there, I have just checked to see if there is any new firmware for my DS-7716NI-K4 / 16P and noticed that the V4 firmware version is no longer available on the UK download site. Link Is there any reason that the V4 version is missing and should I downgrade to the latest version in there...

Hi all, I would greatly appreciate some advice. I know that reolink cameras are not thought of highly but for me they do the job, or at least they did. I purchased 2 x 410 5mp cameras for front and back of the house. Pictures are very good, day and night. I have been recording 24/7 onto a...

Hi All, Please can someone help me understand whether my SD card is being utilised for recording in parallel to my NVR? I cannot figure this out, the recording to the NVR is definitely working but having installed a 128GB card to the camera I cannot see any options anywhere to check. Any help...

I'm looking into setting up a CCTV system to monitor the exterior of my house. The neighbours car was recently vandalised during the night so that has spurred me on to get this sorted. 3 cameras should suffice, two to the front and one to the rear (at least for the time being) The front wall of...

Hello all, I've got the following setup at home: NVR: DS-7604NI-K1(B) CAM1: DS-2CD2385G1-I CAM2: DS-2CD2065G1-I CAM3: DS-2CD2143G0-I Now, there is a need to install another 6 cams. So I am now scratching my head and thinking, whether I should buy a 2nd NVR, smth like DS-7608NI-K2/8P PoE for...

Hello all I currently have an Alteq 8 Port NVR and i am trying to find the lastest frmware version. Been searching for ages and cant seem to find a thing on this brand. The idea to update it and default it before I sell the NVR + 4 x 4MP Dome Cameras. If i look on the system the current...

I have a new HikVision 6 Cam system that works well for about 8 hours, then the NVR crashes loosing all video streams. A hard reboot (unplug/replug) usually brings everything back on line. The Kit is Model EK1-Q82T46 and the NVR is ERI-Q108-P8, purchased in September in USA. The NVR Firmware...

Hi, I'm pretty new to CCTV, and have narrowed my selection of DVR's down to an NVR (with IP camera) technology for my property. However, probably stupid question but I'm gonna ask it anyway... If I'm out and my internet goes down (e.g. maliciously), then I won't receive any alerts, rendering...

I have been thinking about purchasing a Hikvision NVR for quite sometime now and having looked at the various series and models on the Hikvision website I am particularly interested in the DeepinMind Series because I would like to reduce the number of false alarms by utilising the latest smart...

So... upgraded from a 5mpPOC set up to 5 ds-2cd2385G1’s, I have a previous G1 and a auto tracking PTZ that were running via POE switch, Today comes swapped everything over and the NVR wont even power the cameras that have been previously set up via the switch, I have restored these and they...

I have been looking at the Milesights NVR and their VCA. Do you know if it will work with third party cameras over ONVIF?

Could you please explain to a newbie why he needs an NVR, assuming he has plenty of disk space elsewhere? To my idiot's eye, they must increase the live video lag by adding an extra layer of processing, and they make a noise. What camera or network functions do I lose by connecting directly to...

Most Hikvision users will only ever need to download specific clips from their recordings and these clips will rarely exceed 1 hour of footage, in these cases you can quite easily use the browser or iVMS interfaces to download the clips over your local network. On some occasions though there...

Hi All I've just received my Hikvision DS-7604NI-K1-4P NVR, not setup yet, but seen Hikvision "highly recommend" using a UPS. It's not something i'd heard of before, so started searching online, however there appears to be quite a variety, some of which are quite expensive. I've read that you...

All of the below testing was done on a DS-7716NI-I4/16P running the latest firmware v4.22.005, if after any future updates you notice any changes that may affect the below information then do let us know so we can update it. Every so often customers have reported issues and confusion around the...

My current NAS setup doesn't really allow the simply flip of the TV/Display source to view the CCTV (owing to it not having a HDMI port) and fiddly/impossible "internet browsers" on Smart TVs, and will allow other less tech savvy family members too. Something i should of done in the 1st place i...

Hello, Working with Hikvision's 9664-Ni8, with 2 screen on HDMI1 and HDMI2/VGA, i've noticed that the mouse pointer stay in the HDMI1 screen and not moving into the 2nd screen on HDMI2. The screen on HDMI2 is not showing the pointer at all. Did anyone have experienced the same case? It is...

I've got a Hikvision DS-7608NI-I2-8P 8 Channel NVR, that's now been running for a few months since being installed with 3 PoE Hikvision Turret cameras. Due to an odd problem with 1 camera not generating Smart Event notifications for a few days, I had to look at the NVR configuration & check the...
