    Successfully updated 2x DS-2CD2332-I and 1x DS-2CD2532F-IS cams from China/English hacked v5.2.0 to 5.4.5 English. All 3 cams had no issue doing the update in one shot. I've had these cams for 6yrs and finally updated them haha. Thanks so much Alastair!

    Video freeze in motion detection enabled

    I don't have a solution but I had the same issue. I am now using 24/7 continuous record with motion still active and have no issues.

    How to Set up up Continous and motion recording

    As suggested already, my solution is to have email alerts. This gives me continuous recording and notifications when motion occurs. Obviously for this to be effective you need to spend some time to setup your motion settings in order to avoid false triggers flooding your inbox.

    Best monitoring app for (hikvision) ip cameras

    Nexus 5 with Android 5.1 It looks like it is the hik devices according to comments on the play store. Hikvision support says to update to the latest firmware. My cams all have the original 5.2.0 loaded still so I will do some reading to see how to update them. The HD, tablet version, works...

    Best monitoring app for (hikvision) ip cameras

    It is just disappointing since it only started after the latest update. I will see if I can find an sdk for the previous app version.

    Best monitoring app for (hikvision) ip cameras

    This was short lived. :( It worked briefly then became inconsistent. The app works sometimes and other times it just loads the streams forever. I even uninstalled and reinstalled with the same results....Maybe Android 6 will be better otherwise I will be changing apps. Bummer.

    Best monitoring app for (hikvision) ip cameras

    Even on the local network it won't load. I just get the spinning circles for each cam and that continues indefinitely. What makes it worse is the app won't close either. After hitting close the app wants to stop the camera feeds but they never actually started so it can't stop them. It just...

    Best monitoring app for (hikvision) ip cameras

    Anybody else having issues with the latest android version of IVMS-4500? Ever since updating to version 4.2.0 (build 20150820) none of my cams are viewable. They are detected however they just load forever and nothing happens. This app worked seamlessly for me previously.

    Motion detection/email

    This probably isn't your issue but I will post it anyways. I had the same issue, with the same firmware. I could receive test emails but that's it. In my case it was Mac filtering on my router. The camera Mac addressees were not on the allow list. Once added to the list or if Mac filtering was...

    Why I have cameras

    Sorry for the lack of updates gents. The police have not told me if they caught anybody - I would be surprised if they pass along any info too me. Surprisingly they didn't even seem very interested in taking the footage at all. The whole process was actually quite a pain in the ass. They...

    Why I have cameras

    Yea those people are the scum of the earth. I checked raidsonline.com (fantastic website for crime stats by the way) and sure enough there were several reported car break and enters in my neighbourhood on that night. I hope the police nail the SOB. The pic was from a 2332 hik turret recording...

    Why I have cameras

    Caught this sleaze ball testing the door handles on every car on the street last night. Actually there were two of them. Another slimeball was on the other side of the street but I don't have enough clarity for it to be of any use. The idiot is smart enough to not leave finger prints but blindly...
