Reboot the NVR and let me know what happens. It may be the same thing I've encountered.

Can't imagine why there would be any offense. In case you haven't noticed there is not a lot of activity on this forum - like most these days. I was suggesting that rather than waiting days between responses you should read the tutorials up top. You will learn a whole lot and probably answer...

You can't wait for days for responses. The top half of this page is filled with tutorials and Q&A's. You really should spend some time reading a few because they have all your answers.

Did you tick "notify surveillance center" when you set up the events?

Did you hit the "play" button near the bottom of the live view screen? It appears that the feeds no longer automatically start streaming on live view - you have to hit "play" to get them going.

But given how awful the Hikconnect app is, you'd probably end up talking with someone on the international space station.

That doesn't really show that it's been unzipped, but I'll take your word. No idea why it's not updating other than perhaps you have the wrong firmware update file.

You're going to have to change the detection zones or re-aim the cameras. The cameras only know changes to pixels in the scene. When headlights make a sudden change in the scene it's going to trip intrusion and line crossing. The only possibility is to change the "threshold" setting to a larger...

Did you unzip the digicap file?

Did you reboot the NVR as has been suggested in similar threads?

I've commented on this problem before, as I have trouble with it on occasion too. Reboot your NVR and it will likely go away. I get that error after having "other" streaming errors. It's almost as if the NVR keeps that streaming channel open, even though it failed or timed out. Then you end up...

Why are you setting it on the camera? Use the NVR interface.

@JB1970 the weird thing is that it's only happening on one single camera. That camera does live view just fine. But it always errors out when trying to view event video, whether it's line or intrusion, and whether I'm on local wifi or away from home. It simply will not play the event videos. It...

Anybody else having huge problems with this junk service lately? For weeks playback of event notifications has been broken. Live view, although slow, works fine. But every single playback of a notification loads to around 90% and then fails with an error message. I'm so tired of this garbage app.

No. You need to pull back your detection area away from where headlights will hit. If you don't do that it will never stop.

You need to shrink your detection areas, lower your sensitivity, or both. It's going to take some experimentation to get it right. Headlights shining into the detection area can be tough to fix.

The release notes that popped up in the app indicated several updates for doorbells. I wish I'd have taken a screenshot. I do not notice any changes for the better or worse. The app works just fine. It's the service on Hik's side that is always troublesome.

Version 4.20.1.1126 just arrived today.

Why did you start a new thread to announce the solution to this thread??

This app has been total junk for quite a while and Hik has no desire to fix it - or any of the NVR firmware either.
