Problem solved thank you wittaj. I had to lower fps, bitrate and video quality right down to eventually stop the NVR crashing. I can now set the cameras up when its dark then reset bitrate etc etc back to normal once finished.

Thank you, I hadn't tried that, it would make sense. I'll have another go at it tomorrow when I've got an hour.

Hi, I've tried IE, Chrome with IE tab, Firefox with IE tab. It's just strange it keeps rebooting when I go into anything with a live view.

I have a Hikvision DS-7604NI-E1. I've just today updated one of my cameras so need to access NVR through webpage to fine tune. I can get onto the webpage and access Local - System - Network - Video/Audio - Storage - Vehicle Detection and VCA no problems. When I click on either Image or Event...

Hi, I've got a Galaxy S8 with Hik-connect app. It all works very well but would like motion detection to show up on the timeline so i can easily go back to see whats triggered it. I get email alerts but half the time the photo doesn't show, so I find myself delicately altering the timeline to...

Hi, but it is to do with the type of light as there isn't an LED option when you go into Configuration> Image> White Balance. I've always used day setting with flourescent at night as there is always plenty of light shining at front of our house and I had colour, because that produced by far the...

Sorry can't screenshot presently. It was just in the settings for white balance, there is flourescent, incandescent, warm light, natural light etc, but I'm assuming as they are a newish street light (around here anyway) there is no setting available. I way just wondering how folks get around...

Previously had the old orange {sodium?) streetlights outside our house which gave a pretty good picture at night with camera set to daytime. They have just replaced with LED lighting and still using daytime settings at night the picture looks like a white hazy frost everywhere. I've tried all...

I still haven't figured out why the exact same camera on continuous record showes hundreds of motion detection activations per day through VGA/HDMI, and a dozen or so (correct activations) through the web GUI. I haven't a cat in hells chance of finding a "proper" activation through VGA/HDMI as...

To be fair it was, but 590 through the VGA/HDMI and just 12 through the web GUI for the exact same time period. There must be a setting thats wrong somewhere as that just doesn't add up.

I've just tried the web GUI and the motion detections are working fine (12 between midnight and 8am), highlighted in red underneath the continuous blue like in your second pic. I just need to find why there were 590 motion detection activations in the same period, through the monitor connected...

Hi Alastair, I've been monitoring things over the last couple of days that I've left recording on continuous. Even from midnight to 8am on just 2 cameras I've had 590 motion detection activations according to the log info, if it had been solely recording on motion I may have had 20 or so (mostly...

Something else I've learnt thanks. I've set up continuous detection for the last hour, the motion on my drive in that time was picked up on screen with the alarm symbol and it set it off twice. When I come to playback, all of the blue line is continuous as expected. Underneath, the green line...

Hi Alastair, that 1st hdmi screenshot is exactly what I see when I set up continuous recording and start playback, I don't use the web based ever. If you leave on "normal" then you can 2x 4x 8x etc and 30sec forward/back but it plays through all 24 hours in that day. If you then set to "Smart"...

Alistair, my model is the DS-76xxNI range which it clearly states in the K51 firmware.... I series NVR DS-7616NI-I2 DS-7616NI-I2/16P DS-77xxNI-I4 DS-77xxNI-I4/16P DS-9632/64NI-I8 DS-9632/64NI-I16 K series NVR DS-7604NI-K1/4P DS-76xxNI-K2 DS-76xxNI-K2/xP DS-77xxNI-K4...
