Yeah, it's a fair point, and I'll admit it's not probably a fair comparison, as you say this is a snapshot of a video frame as opposed to a static photo. Perhaps one day the two can become a bit closer :) For your info, this was taken as the best quality settings I could get from the HikVision...

Thanks for the reply and I may question if you'd like what AI did or did not do, until we see it :) And indeed, CCTV does seem to lag a lot behind what we are all used to in our (for example) Phones from even 5 years ago. Most modern phones, will destroy a security camera for image quality...

Thanks for the interesting reply, and I don't disagree with the fact that they are perhaps aimed at different sectors. I'm not sure I'm in full agreement that, AI and Deep learning is something only suitable for a home user. However, perhaps I did not correctly explain my point. You correctly...

I hope this does not sound like I'm being crazy here, but here goes ;) What with all the current AI and Machine Learning being built into so many products these days. Would is not be to much to expect these camera's to be able to self adjust based upon the current scene/weather conditions/time...

I don't have one, but isn't there 2 fans in the HikVision NVR's? One inside the power supply and one on the side of the case. I don't know why these designers don't think in the way PC's are quietly cooled. Nice holes in the bottom perhaps with a large slow running fan. But anyway, the power...

Dare I suggest/make this point? What with vast improvements to CPU's over recent years esp with the track/nano-meter sizes coming down in the news/media, and efficiencies going up. One could hope/expect that the need for noisy fans (perhaps any fan at all) will drop, as I'm aware this is a...

Silly question time again. Any new news on HikVison NVR's for 8 camera's? Are we still looking at the DS-7608NI-I2/8P (Wondering if they've got one in the Natural History Museum yet) :) As someone who enjoys advances in chips within smartphones, tablets, and multiple gadgets it pains me to...

Support and helping out us desperate beginners pulling their hair out due to the less than obvious ways of getting things working is worth it's weight in gold. And I'm sure everyone is in your debt for this help. Way more important than any video's and I hope my comment did not come across as...

I know what I'd like to see shown in a video. And that's how the visual quality is affected by the various picture quality settings. Perhaps with examples during sunlight, poor light, and night time. We understand more frames/sec means smoother video, but does more frames mean easier to get a...

Just a little query regards the text at the top of these forums: "Hi, Please subscribe to our YouTube channel for fresh new videos each week. " I'd actually been subscribed to your excellent channel long before I bought my 1st decent camera, and joined these excellent forums. Looking at the...

Thank you Kyle. I felt it was better to ask this time and not assume. My previous first experiences with HikVision were rather harrowing, with passwords and username in different areas, and the same thing being called something else. Much appreciated. Oh, wild guess. If/When I was to buy a...

Just installed for the very 1st time the latest Windows iVMS 4200 software, and ran it for the 1st time. It's saying "Please Create a Super User First" So that's a username and also password. Now before I mess something up I thought I'd take the sensible approach for a change and ask first ;)...

Thanks for the interesting post. Just wanted to say that here as didn't really feel should be saying much about Reolink as it's not a product supported by those who run the forum and did not wish to steer a thread off-track.

Thanks Phil for that amazing and excellent post. I really appreciate your honesty is saying it like it is, and not just trying to gloss over issues for items on sale. What you say actually rings very true with the feeling I've got over the past few weeks of reading up on HikVision, and previous...

Thank you Phil. You're posts are always so informative, and I enjoy Googling to find more about the points you raise. As someone who is not "into" Networking in any serious way, and has not used IE for a l-o-n-g time, and never for security cameras as I've always used either a mobile app or...

Thanks for that tip. Do we know, or has anyone (in the know) spoken to HikVision and tried to find out why their software only correctly supports a old Web Browser, two generations of products old, that even the makers, Microsoft have moved on from. Do we know why they do not/have not/do not...

Little update. Managed to find the answer to my problems above :) And indeed, I'd never have guessed the answer in a million years, but now I know it's simple (as most things are when you know!) :) My thanks goes out to "digger11" on another (The Other?) Forums/Site for his post, which I'll...

Wow, this really is puzzling me. Something on the face of it, I thought was simply browse to a folder, and files get saved there. I have to giggle a bit how not knowing how something works is just mind blowing, yet I'm sure there is a simple explanation. A little more experimenting has shown...

Didn't see this one coming :) Just testing out my Camera and Fitted in a Samsung EVO 64GB SD Card and formatted it. Set the recording to be continues and all seems fine. I can playback the video files from the Web Interface just fine. Or course, it would be nice to download them to my computer...

Thanks for pointing that out, for some reason I'd only ever thought of camera's being messed with, not the NVR getting stolen. You make a good case, as if the NVR can be easily seen (or they wonder where all that noise is coming from!) and locate it, then it may be one of the items on their...
