Thanks as always @JB1970. Did the toggling of Hardware Decoding on and then off, and this resolved. Weird as it really just set if back to what it was originally. I found there was no need to change DDNS (never had that over last years on any device for HIK in house) which I'm thankful for...

We use multiple devices (Android phone + iOS IPAD + Android tablet) to view cameras on M2-series NVR. These have worked successfully for number of years, both locally and when away from home accessing via web. In last few months and primarily on newest device (Lenovo Android Tablet) Hik-Connect...

Thank you @JB1970 will update the firmware. With intrusion detection set there is no white light action when human/vehicle entering area though unfortunately. This is a vertical area (around large gates) rather than being on a more horizontal axis. I’m therefore wondering if a more simple line...

Smart Events for hybrid camera do not have "white light" as linkage method in the event. Any reasons? Camera is DS-2CD2387G2H-LIU with FW 5.7.14 Build 230504 NVR is DS-7608NI-M2 / 8P with FW 4.63.020 Smart event setting at NVR (via browser) and direct to camera do not show linkage method so...

Yes apologies 2386G2 (fat fingers). Firmware properties are as you suggest B-R-G3-0 Thanks for help/reply.

I have 2385G2. Been tardy as it has firmware version V5.5.160 build 210108 on it. I've tried to download the SP2 and also 5.7.12 to installed however when attempting the upgrade from camera config and selecting the digicap.dav file I have extracted from the firmware download I get the error "the...

Is it just a straight load or ‘magic’ needed to side load Hik-Connect on to them? thanks for reply and thoughts

What are people using for viewing HIK nvr (Wi-Fi at home) with few issues? Trusty old iPad has died. We had this on as viewing panel (with iVMS) so we can always see main 4 cctv at glance (We’ve 8 total). We use HIK-connect on other iPad/android phones but more as reactive thing and when away...

Definitely agree with @Dan recommendation and guidance. The G2 acusense provide amazing night performance, and in a dark area doesn’t create the light polllution. I would say in some areas I have pir white light to complement the camera so looking forward to new smart light On light pollution...

Defo will be giving these rascals a try. Thanks @Dan

Was reading on HIK web pages about this capability in Ultra cameras. has anyone got it and on what models as the link for detail on HIK site gives a 404 oops message...

Need to replace 2386g2 (2.8mm) that’s given good service. Only failed due to water ingress on connector (my fault). Would like your views on straight swap or go for 2383G2 which has 1/2.8 sensor compared with 1/1.8, and lower lux of 0.0005 vs 0.003 (2386G2). low light capability is most...

Latest version from portal downloaded/installed. (.025_220905). Did have squeaky bum as couldnt access NVR from Edge or Chrome but thankfully could from iVMS and weirdly from Firefox although on later screen/image alignment in the webpage was a bit wonky. I rebooted NVR twice, getting sweatier...

Ring dim (seeking clarity ) and disable events on the cameras themselves so the NVR is the one to rule them all?

Should I be defining Smart Events at the NVR using a browser interface or at the camera directly or both? I ask as on NVR/browser I cannot define max/min size of objects for Intrusion Detection but I can at camera. However if I only do on camera then it seems on some cameras :-( those Smart...

Seen the below new version of Firmware on portal. Should I be downloading/applying this to my 7608? Version: V4.61.010 build220527

Thanks Phil really helpful. It’s made me think I may be as well now looking at anpr as one of the main needs is capturing vehicles on road day/night and getting reg numbers. Currently have two HIK cameras as highlighted in attached pic. Both G2 / 8mp and whilst spotting vehicles, they aren’t...

I'm (again) looking at IR Illuminator options. Thinking about GJD Clarius or Raytech. Interested to get experience of these or the installation of IR Illuminators additional to CCTV IR. What's the experience of this forum on the benefits of this higher-end product for home/residential...

V4.60.005 build 220108 applied to NVR. Cannot open URL/IP address on MS Edge at all. No error/nothing ! Can open URL/IP address on CHROME. Cannot do Live View of camera. But does allow me to connect/manage cameras. iVMS 3.7.0.5 appears to work however when logging in as ADMIN i cannot do...

@JB1970 question on you advice (or any other folks for that matter :) ). One camera (2163G0) with Smart Event for Line Crossing and for Intruder Detection. The former NOT set for Notify Surveillance Centre the latter IS set to Notify Surveillance Centre. GOOD news is on Hik-Connect I'm only...
