I like them a lot. I have two and they seem to last.

I hadn't noticed that, thanks for pointing that out. Hopefully it'll work fine for my needs anyway.

AliExpress is like the Wild West. This one's the "regular" price. I'm going to give one a try. US $44.29 14% OFF|850NM IR LED Infrared 30 Degree 50M Night Vision Built in sensor 850nm IR Bulb board for Security camera-in CCTV Accessories from Security & Protection on Aliexpress.com | Alibaba Group

Thanks loads for this - I freaked a little after I installed Safari 12.0 today. Sea Monkey works great and if you set it up to restore the last session and let it save passwords to both the NVR and the all the cams as tabs when you re-open in the browser it will auto-enter the passwords and...

UDP will only fix the issue for awhile...

I currently have only three connected cams so I replaced my troublesome DS-7604NI-E1 with an English version DS-7608NI-I2/8P sourced from Aliexpress and couldn't be happier, though you'll want the 16 POE port version that I should have bought. I had the freezing problem your client is having...

Yes, that's what happened when I tried it so I set everything back. Thanks again Alastair, I'll fiddle with this when I get a chance.

So all I need to change is to add the router IP address to the camera network settings, add the email configuration in the cam settings and disable the email settings in the NVR? Thanks.

In the camera network settings what do I change besides the router gateway address since the cam is getting it's IP address from the NVR and is on a different subnet?

Thanks, I'll recheck my settings.

Yes, I've done this all but the email pictures remain at 704x576 resolution. My question is has anyone successfully set up and received larger resolution email photos from the camera.

When you disable the email alerts in the NVR are the pics in the email alert directly from the camera in the larger resolution? Can't get that to work...

You're right Alastair, the max resolution in my NVR is 704x576 but the cam gives the full stream resolution, three quality settings and interval settings by millisecond. We'll see it it chokes the NVR, I'll bet it will, or the NVR just ignores the cam settings.

And what is a "Timing Snapshot"?

Schedule Settings/Capture/Capture Parameters/Enable Event-Triggered Snapshot? Will the settings there be reflected in the email? Hikvision told me that the NVR's CPU couldn't handle sending anything larger. I've never enabled this and I'm still getting pics. I'll give it a try.
