Motion blur is more likely a result of low shutter speeds in low light and/or lower FPS. Yes I would like 25 or 30 FPS but they are too intermittently problematic for me. The 8Mbps bitrate is fine for these cameras though. I can view mine on a 55 inch OLED TV and the quality is stunningly good...

I'm using 8192kbps I tried higher but didn't notice any better quality.

Yes I did see the same stuttering on playback (the anomalies clearly got recorded). But since the setting changes playback is now OK for me. I agree with you, the G5 platform does seem to have some issues. I too tried various buffer settings - I didn't see any differences though. One thing to...

No, I didn't mean that. My main monitor is a multi-camera image (5 or 9 cameras) which are all in sub stream view in that configuration. On a smart detection the main stream is then recorded but during that process the monitor video stuttered, jumped or had 1 or 2 dark frames. Those anomalies...

I've since got 4.60.005 working well from the NVR and iVMS. The critical thing seems to be matching the main stream event video settings to the sub stream settings in video frame rate and i-frames. So I'm running G5 cameras at 20fps and i-frame at 40. This means that when watching the live...

Just checked, it is there on 4.60.000 but I'd not noticed it either. I've enabled it to see what it does. Update: Can't see any difference with the setting on or off

I installed the update on my 7732NI-I4 a couple of weeks ago, and on 2 other tech savvy clients 7608NI-I2 NVR. So far no issues on any of them to make me downgrade. No camera reconnect issues at reboot. Minor niggle, NVR playback on higher mega pixel cameras jumps at what appears to be the...

Sorry, I cocked up doing my reply. Yep the NVR NTP default is normally 60 minutes (which is bonkers), so I've set it to 1440 minutes (24hrs). Here's why... Looking at a camera NTP setting via the camera interface my defaults vary according to camera age. The default for my older PTZ cameras is...

Ah yes, my mistake, I meant to type 600 seconds, the interval that it was previously set to. I presume 600 is default - I'll check with other installs later. Sync once a minute is far too often. Once a day sync is perfectly normal for any devices in my IT experience. If the NVR fails to connect...

JB1970 Since post #6 I've done the 4.60.000 upgrade on the 7732 NVR. I didn't get the record flag flashing on direct monitoring you mentioned. I also changed the time sync interval on the NVR to 1440 seconds rather than 60 secs, on the theory that it could have been updating the time on the...

I upgraded my 7732NI NVR to 4.60.000 a few days ago, direct via USB stick. All is well with a mixture of generic PTZ, HiLook, and Hikvision cameras including G2 ColorVu cams. False triggering & flickering date/image on the 8MP ColorVu cameras now seems to be mostly resolved. Performance overall...

Download & view the mp4 files from the Dropbox link below, 3 very short videos of the problem for me... The videos show no real event in VCA but do show the date/flicker issue. You'll likely need to use the Hikvision VSPlayer to view them. 2387G2 Video They were created from the videos...

JB, I updated one 2387 to 5.7.2 and installed iVMS 3.6.1.3 on the PC, disabling the modules I don't need. The custom views are useful and switch quickly. The built in NVR interface is the same as the web version but now I can get to all 4 intrusion/line crossing zones (only 3 in Chrome view...

Hi JB There is definitely something weird going on with our ColorVU cameras! 2CD2387G2-LU Every so often, even with no smart motion detected, the camera momentarily changes the date colour to black (or inverts it) along with the momentary image (dark flash). The issue triggers a recording on...

GP I've had to reduce the bitrate on my 2387G2's to 8192kbps because the recordings were 'jumpy'. Re the lines/blinds, yes they look like hum bars but they are not caused by the usual earth loop phenomena, or electrical interference in this case. As JB mentioned its something to do with WDR and...

GP116126 Interestingly I had horizontal lines (like blinds) on last night's images. I had changed the shutter setting to 1/100 with the camera set on PAL, 25fps. Reducing the shutter settings removed the lines. Yes JB, absolutely look like hum bars. I've settled on different camera settings...

Ok I did experiment with the pre-alarm times when the flickering occurred but the setting had no effect for me. Currently set to 10s pre, 30s record. I also tried PAL vs NTSC, that made no difference either, currently left on PAL at max 25fps. The 2 other things I did today on the 2387s were...

JB1970, agreed it is a PITA because you notice it easily and are drawn to it. However I think I may have solved it on my system... It was definitely occurring on any event that triggered the recorder so I focused on what happens at this point. At an event trigger (smart or otherwise) the video...

I've just installed 2 x 2387G2 cameras and have noticed the same flicker. I t doesn't happen on any other camera. It usually occurs when a smart event is detected and momentarily the image blacks slightly and the text changes. Did you resolve it yours?
