Have the same issue with my box cam DS-2CD2820F, i use the network SDK tool to make changes.

Re: Looking for recommendations on camera that can activate recording based on sound My Hikvision box cam (DS2CD4024FWD) will record based on sound level input, also has excellent sound quality, Pretty sure most all smart series Hikvision cams now will record based on sound level input.

Try turning your Iris Exposure time down at night to 1/30 or 1/12 to let more light in and adjust gain down, 1/12 or lower and you my start seeing motion blur.

Do you have an open port on your router? Try connecting it to your router it should work then, The IPV4 in SADP i am talking about is in the picture you posted, under the "IPv4 Address" it list the address of all your cams and NVR, when you change the address of a cam it should show the changed...

Dang! does not make sense, so you disconnected the cam from the NVR and connected it to your router with external power, change IP through SADP, then put new IP in Internet Explorer and nothing? You try and enable DHCP in SADP also?. Does the new IP address show up under IPv4 Address in SADP? If...

Looking at your picture it shows cam 003 has an IP address of 192.168.254.3, this is the address assigned by the NVR network and you cannot access the cam using that address from a PC, you need to change the cam address to one that is on your PC's local network 10.0.0.XXX. You change the address...

Did you reconnect your setup like it was mentioned in the link I gave you? https://www.ipcamtalk.com/showthread.php/2113-Full-access-to-cameras-via-Hikvision-NVR The only other thing I would suggest is connecting a cam to an open port on your router or an external switch on your network and...

You could also enable virtual host if your NVR has it, check in "system configuration" "Network" "More Settings" then enable Virtual Host

Ya thats why I prefer non-poe NVRs using an external poe switch, you can access all cams from any PC on your network, take a look at this thread it explains how to do it with built in poe. https://www.ipcamtalk.com/showthread.php/2113-Full-access-to-cameras-via-Hikvision-NVR

That camera should have noise reduction, I have U.S version and it has it, most all newer cams have it, you need to access straight to the cameras settings menu with a PC, so PC > Cam, not PC > NVR > Cam. If you go into "Image" through NVR it will only show a couple settings like you posted, by...

What is the camera model you have?

Go into "configuration", then "image" then on the right side of the screen will be list of options and select "image enhancement" and you will see "Noise Reduction".

Noise reduction must be set in each cameras web interface you cannot set it through the NVR. Can you access each cams web interface? I do not know how to access the cameras web interface with an NVR that has built in POE, all my NVR's are non-POE for this exact reason, I can easily access each...

Your NVR can only handle so much bandwidth (data), you need to adjust your resolution, FPS and bit rate so you get the best picture quality possible and still get 2x2 in multiscreen. Set the resolution lower (720p), lower FPS (15 is good) then increase the bit rate till you no longer get 2x2...

No not the resolution, the bit rate setting should be on the same screen as the resolution setting in the cameras video settings menu. should look something like 4096 Kps
