Hi all. I've got 3 Ezviz wifi PTZ cameras working really well with my Hikvision NVR. Alerts, recording, PTZ control. Only problem I have is passwords seem a bit weird - I've changed the password on all 3 cameras but NVR will only work with old one... NVR is DS-7616NI-K2/16P Ezviz cameras: C6N...

Is there anyway to configure a Hikvision PTZ to start its pre-configured patrol path when power is switched on, say after a power outage? Thanks

Thanks Dan. Sorry for more stupid questions but going a little crazy trying to get this properly configured. I managed to get it working with one camera and did have loads of nice green and red tags on the playback timelines but now they seem to have gone. When I do an event search it still...

I've scanned other posts and cant find a complete answer to this. I want my NVR to continually record, and mark the recording with smart events and motion capture. I've got continuous recording working OK, but when I went into the recording config (direct access on NVR) and did what I thought to...

Hi Dan. Can I just check if there is anyway to get MP4s onto a Mac that will play without converting - either via a USB from the NVR itself, or using IVMS or using any browser to access the NVR over the LAN? Or will I always have to convert? Many thanks!

Thanks @David and @Dan. Fixed by switching dhcp on. Wry helpful and learnt something new. Cheers

I have just installed a brand new DS-2CD234G2-IU onto my LAN (its in an out building so couldn't run direct). Its connected to my Hikvision NVR all OK. I used SADP to change the IP address as it didn't pick it up originally. Its all working fine on the NVR, however its not showing up on my Sky...

Hi Dan. Thank you very much for coming back so quick. At least I can stop faffing around. Now beginning to work out why Hikvision more expensive... thanks. Looks like Reolink will go on ebay and I'll get Hikvision replacements. Cheers!

Hi all. This has been a useful thread thanks. I have a similar problem - 3 Reolink cameras attached over my LAN to a Hikvision NVR. The cameras record and view perfectly OK. What doesn't work is event detection, either giving me alerts of marking the recording with events. I have a Hikvision...

I've done a search of the forums and pretty sure this question hasn't been answered, but please redirect if I've missed it. I've been unsuccessful at setting up emails alerts on my Hikvsion NVR. I am using my Apple email. I have researched all the config advice from Apple and other Hikvision...
