I ended with firmware version NVR_K51_BL_ML_STD_V4.61.025_220905 which was the latest firmware listed in the EU portal. I'm not sure if there's a more up to date version available somewhere else, but this version (along with updating the camera's firmware) is working quite well. Cheers and...

Thanks again Alastair, I can now say I'm an expert at loading NVR firmwares... 24 firmware loads later and I'm up to date! Significant changes that I've noticed (apart from the visual layout update) is that streaming to HIK-Connect seems much much faster/smoother. I seem to be having some...

Thanks Alastair, I appreciate your reply. I've done a bit of digging but come up empty so far - is there a list of firmwares for the DS-7608NI-I2/8P that I can go through and slowly load/progress through until the 4.71.005 firmware? I remember a few years ago there was a portal available, but...

G'day All, I haven't touched the firmware at all since purchase and the 7608NI-I2/8P is currently running V3.4.92 (170228) with the 4 x DS-2CD2352-I's running V5.4.3 (160902). I'd like to update the firmware of the NVR and cameras to get any new features, close any security problems and...

Great stuff, thanks for putting the time in to post the info. It's going to help a lot of people!

Hi Geoff, Thanks heaps for posting the link, I'll have a read and see if I can remember the logon ID and password for the NVR :)

G'day Geoff, I haven't made any progress on this, but I'm still running the original firmware that came with the NVR, and I'm sorta scared to try and update the firmware incase I brick it... If I remember correctly, a later firmware gave the option, maybe? It would be great to be able to play...

I didn't have any luck figuring out how to play back the substream. As you mentioned, viewing live feed substream is easy, but I couldn't figure out a way to record in BOTH main stream AND substream, and then be able to choose which playback stream you watch. Securame mentions above that it's...

Hi All, I use Hik-Connect on my android phone to view the IP cams and I've noticed that one of the cams throws up an error at times. The error is 'Video Playing Error. Error Code (245451). I've done a google search for that error code but I can't find anything. Any ideas what the error code...

Hi Tony, It could help, and it's something I might look at doing later on.

No-one knows what bitrates they are running?

G'day all, Thanks for all your replies, it looks like the IR extender will be the go'er. The reason I'd like to turn it off and on remotely is because the wired network causes interference to some of the HAM bands (Amateur Radio), so the easiest thing to do is just turn it off when I need to...

Hi All, I have a DS-7608NI-I2/8P locked in a rack unit away under the house in a nice cool and clean spot which is a pain to get to. I have a need to be able to remotely (other side of the house) turn the DS-7608NI-I2/8P off AND on. Turning it off remotely is easily done via the iVMS-4200...

I'd like to know what bitrate settings everyone is using, and we might as well throw in the frame rate and mega pixel settings as well. The reason why I'd like to know is that I'm struggling to find a balance between recording good quality video (capture licence plate details/good face details)...

Ekk.. that simple - thanks ! Strange how it only showed in one cam, when I had it ticked for all four.
