    Easy IP 2.0+ vs IP 4.0 Varifocal night quality

    I've been looking at the DS-2CD2H83G0-IZS 8MP Motorised Zoom (non-darkfighter) as Ive been offered an ex demo model for £100 but it uses the Easy IP 2.0+ but I'm debating on whether paying the full £340 for the DS-2CD2H86G2-IZS is a better investment as it has darkfighter technology. This would...

    New [76NI-K1(B)] V4.30.000_build200508 GUI 4 Firmware

    I had issues with mine too. I gave up after various troubleshooting and discovered it was an issue related to smart events and something else. I've reverted back to v3.4.112 and everything works perfectly.

    Hik-Connect Hik-Connect Failed to Search the Video

    yes, I had the same issue too on one camera. Cant quite remember how I fixed it, I tried multiple reboots, but I think mine came back on after various toggling of alerts/notifications in the camera and NVR. Took about 3 days of frustration as it should’ve worked, then suddenly it fixed itself...

    How to improve night vision on my DS-2CD2135FWD-I camera?

    Much better! Nice to see the improvements. That glare might be the IR reflecting back and then catching a bit of dust on the lens (or glass if its the dome).

    How well do Hikvision's NVR models perform 7604NI-K1(B) vs 7608NI-K2-8P vs 7608NI-I2-8P?

    Interesting feedback. Thanks. I've the 7604NI-K1(B) and it the bitrates are poor. Anything over 3072 ( with medium quality) and it struggles to playback remotely (it's fine using the monitor connected directly to the NVR). Even if I try to connect to it via iVMS and local IP address. hence why...

    I Rolled back to v3.4.110 and everything is running much better. playback is working fine, likewise it doesn't lock me out anymore. V4.00 was causing major headaches, I'd suggest rollback or wait for firmware upgrade. However during the rollback, it did automatically reset the NVR back to...

    Firmware Latest HikVision Firmware for K-Series [76NI-K1(B)] NVRs - V3.4.109

    I Rolled back to v3.4.110 and everything is running much better. It does not crash anymore. Still unable to download footage, but playback works fine now. V4.00 was causing major headaches. However during the rollback, it reset the NVR back to factory settings.

    How to improve night vision on my DS-2CD2135FWD-I camera?

    When the normal floodlight comes on, it lights up the scene and it throws enough light to sharpen up the image, but the is only suitable for close subjects. an IR floodlight would be better for the distance subjects (but that caravan might cause an issue. So maybe its better to install the IR at...

    Ive rolled back my firmware to from 4.00 to 3.4.112 on my K series NVR. and it’s fixed a load of the issues. It did reset my settings, so I had to reconfigure the NVR. However the GUI is running much quicker. just for info, cameras are all running the latest 5.6.5 firmware, and the latest...

    How to improve night vision on my DS-2CD2135FWD-I camera?

    IR floodlight is better To light up the bottom of your driveway. A normal floodlight is better for closer objects. In either case the brighter the scene, the easier it is to recognise the intruders. Just a thought, you could turn the camera 90 deg, so the image is portrait, rather than...

    How to improve night vision on my DS-2CD2135FWD-I camera?

    I've installed a normal LED floodlight above my cameras, so when they are activated at night, the driveway is lit up and the camera switched from IR to colour which then gives better footage and we can identify the people that little bit better.

    i don’t think it’s iOS related as I can’t log in via the web browser on a Mac or PC. Likewise iVMS software are also locked out.

    Hik-Connect Hik-Connect Failed to Search the Video

    I have the same issue with my K series NVR, but it only started when the NVR was updated to the latest firmware a few weeks ago. It also blocks me from logging in via the web admin and iVMS-4200. It still records, shows liveview, but playback and remote admin login are not operational. If you...
