Hi,
I am getting an error when I try to make a change to the "Camera Name" in the "Configuration->Image->OSD Settings" screen. When I click "Save", I get a box at the bottom right of the screen saying "Parameter Error". This happens no matter the value that I try to use in "Camera Name"...
I figured I'd help make this a bit easier... So here is a linux python script which will do all the necessary editing of the mtd6_ro file. Not the best code (I literally just learned python to do this).
You basically pass in the name of the target file (it will be overwritten) and the device...
Thank you! I just updated 2 devices using your tools and instructions. One of them is a new model not in the list:
1E98 (38942) DS-2CD2132F-IS
The other one was 2CD2032-I. Note that I was able to upgrade directly to 5.4.5 (step #3 in your instructions). Actually, I tried going to 5.4.41...
Hi, is it possible to setup the DS-2CD2132F-IS and/or the DS-2CD2032-i to overwrite the older videos when the storage is full? Basically, I'd like the cameras to behave as if they had an endless loop, overwriting the older videos as the storage starts being exhausted. Possible?
If not...
Thanks folks.
I got the NFS working. I found an empty 250GB drive and I am using that for the NFS mount. I created two separate NFS mounts on that same drive, one per camera. Both "formatted" correctly and seem to be recording just fine. We'll see which camera fills up the disk first! lol...
Ok, I found a few threads and the sticky thread on the NFS/NAS subject... I think the gist of it is that no one knows how small the filesystem can be nor how much free space is needed in it. Also, people tend to think that 250GB is the upper limit.
With that information, I moved to using a...
Re: Connecting passive microphone to Hikvision DS-2CD2132F-IS dome camera audio termi
If you have a black wire on the microphone cord, hook that up to GND. If there's no black, but you have a bare and a jacketed wire, then connect the bare wire to the GND terminal. The other wire goes to the...
Hi, are you saying that volumes over 200GB won't work? or that volumes under 200GB won't work? Sorry, if I am being thick here.
Here is the output of "df" on the camera:
# df -kh
Filesystem Size Used Available Use% Mounted on
rootfs 7.9M 6.5M 1.4M 83% /...
I am not sure this helps you, but I am able to playback the recorded files just fine on fedora 21 with mplayer and vlc.
mplayer reports the file as being MPEG-PS format and it uses ffmpeg's ffh264 video decoder.
Hi,
I am trying to download a recording from the SDCard on the camera (DS-2CD2032F-IS). I can see the recording on the web interface. I select the recording and click on "Download" button, but absolutely nothing happens after that... I am trying this from firefox and also have tried from...
Hi,
I can see that the camera web interface allows me to configure the following ports:
HTTP Port: 80
RTSP Port: 554
HTTPS Port: 443
Server Port: 8000
What is the "Server port" used for? Is that the starting address for the RTP server? Do I need to open that through the firewall or is that...
Hi,
I have a DS-2CD2132F-IS and a DS-2CD2032-i camera. Both came with the 5.2.5 firmware pre-installed. I bought these from separate vendors on Amazon.
Both cameras seem to be working fine, in terms of live video but I am unable to get either of them to record to NFS mounts. The NFS mounts...
