Final update on this: After visually comparing videos of the two, H264 & H264+, and getting some confusing results…. I got out a 16x9 Optical Camera Lens Resolution Chart. When I first started this I was thinking that Picture Quality & Bandwidth were my only criteria for tests. Once I got...

OK Here's what I know... Yes, I got H264+ going with 1920x1080/30.... First: THE PICTURE DAVID POSTED IS CORRECT! H264 is displaying on config when H264+ is enabled!! That caused confusion: Now it appears you cannot immediately access H264+ from settings........ IT MUST be done from a...

OK! I got H264+ at 1920x1080/30 going on one of three cameras! The “How to wasn’t at all like I expected! Once I get other Two going, and do some test and screen captures, I’ll post more!

How did you (locally) switch it to H264+ From H264 in the cam config menu? Mine does not show H264+ with same firmware version in that menu? Are you set for 60 or 50? Fps? I had to switch from H264 to H264+ via remote (SS) control to get H264+ to be enabled? I was unable to find a way to do it...

PS: Actually THANK YOU for the data sheet... It was Different than the one I had, AND BETTER.... By the way, did you not notice that this DOES SUPPORT H264+ in the spec sheet you posted? Firmware versions I tried that worked flawlessly was: (5.5.53 or 5.5.82) It Does appear then that Camera...

Help files in camera say otherwise, but could they be notes for ALL cameras? H264+ Works fine, at 1280x720/30, and bandwidth savings are visable compared to H264... Once at H264+, Local camera Config changes show menu settings that previously were un-available from H264 at camera side... ...

Good Morning! I have searched through the Documents and Help files for this information, and though I do find references to this subject, I have not found this exact information, so I post here... My camera of choice is 2CD2042WD-1, and with last 2 firmware's (5.5.53 or 5.5.82) I see identical...

Ok, Thanks Phil.... That's what I thought but wasn't certain if fixed focus lens were different than a TV Camera's Zoom Lens, where you had to take into consideration 'Far' focus, and 'Back' focus....

Hi there.... I'm sticking with the camera I'm familiar with 2cd2042WD-1.... Need one with 12MM lens, but the are either not in my price range, or flat out -- un-available.... I have a spare 4MM 2042 unit, and aquired a less expensive 1/3" sensor DS-2CD2012-I-12MM Plan is to remove 12mm lens...

didn't see a for sale area... Hello... Anyone in USA have a good used DS-2CD2042WD-I 12mm camera in the USA? I'm putting together an experiment for our Homeowner's Association..... Must be 12mm Thanks...

I never received an answer to my email.... after first one was sent... So I sent another 3 days ago..... So Today I sent a third email to: hsrc@hikvision.com Still awaiting an answer!

I just emailed them at the email address you just posted! Thanks!!

I have sent 3 emails to support that have fallen on deaf ears. 2CD2042-WD1 in the states have not received an update I have locked them out: (12 cameras) from internet access in firewall, while I patiently await a firmware update that has not yet happened, and no subsequent response from...

And still — unless I missed something obvious: for my HiKvision camera: 2CD2042WD-1. I do NOT see any firmware update for that model at links provided or USA Site! For this or previous security issue in September. I have, however, in. an abundance of caution, Denied Internet access, in...

Cannot find a USA Version of that code. Would you have a link? PS: HiKvision USA download portal does not see that code applied to other USA cameras seen in the UK read me first filename your link.

Update on my findings... Getting ready for the phone call.... One of the 12 cameras I have came with latest USA firmware: 5.5.82 Build 190220 installed. That's the one on USA Support site says is not guaranteed to work.. Yet it came installed on camera... Looking at the pdf release notes in...

I'm getting more -- Good, In Depth information from this site than I ever got from USA site.... The one time I did call USA Support, nearly 3 years ago, we never got to subject at hand, but instead got embroiled into camera serial number being not registered.. and when I gave the number to him...

Thanks... However the Readme First indicates it covers: DS-2CD1?32 DS-2CD2?22 DS-2CD2?12 DS-2CD2?31 cameras.... Are you certain it covers the DS-2CD2042WD-1 camera? Now I did go back to Hikvision USA firmware site and check the 2CD2012 and 2CD2022 and 2CD2042 versions, and yes, they all use...

Hello from across the pond! As I posted in another thread, I have not found DS2CD2042WD-1 cameras on the most recent list of affected cameras, And camera firmware is older than the recent security issue. I’ve sent emails and web requests on the model not being listed, to USA Hikvision Sales &...

I've clicked the USA Contact at Hikvision's Website to both Support and to Sales asking why camera isn't listed as one of the models with this issue, and also asked for a link to USA version of the "Fix" for the September 2021 Issue....If anything is answered I'll inform what USA folks say...
