I enabled H.264+. Resolution is set to 4MP and 20 fps. The bitrate is grayed out with the H.264+ enabled but everything seems stable. If I'm reading the bandwidth being used, its somewhere around 33mbps total.

It was something ridiculous. Well over 10000kbps; I dont have the NVR in front of me, but at 4MP resolution, it was recommending 12000 kbps. Makes sense now. I'll go mess with it when I get home.

6400 kbps per channel? Only have 5 cams.

I forgot I have Windows 10 installed on my Mac Air. Seems to work better with Windows, so it's something to do with the OS in Mac, I believe. What does work with my Mac is if I go to that specific camera and view from that IP address (and not through NVR IP), I can view the image in real time...

Yeah I'm not too sure what's up with my Macs. I have a Macbook Air and a iMac Desktop. Both cannot stream or playback the 2688*1520 resolution. If I drop it down to 1080P, they playback and live view fine. I'm viewing them through the web interface. I'm not aware of IVMS working on a Mac?

Thanks! When i try to change the resolution to anything higher than 1080P, the image on my computer screens become unviewable. I'm assuming its because the screens cannot support the resolution. The image appears fine when viewing directly from the NVR via HDMI to my TV, so I'm fairly sure...

Hey guys. I have my system up and running now and it's time to start tweaking with the settings. For starters, here is my equipment, all Hikvision: NVR: DS-7608NI-E2/8P w/ 2TB HDD installed 4 each: XC-2342WDI One each: XC-2542FWD-IS I am somewhat familiar with resolutions but have some...

I've attached some pictures of the prewire locations with the wall plates off. Given these measurements, do you know if these cameras will cover the opening? I'm concerned about moisture getting in the wall if it doesn't cover it all the way.

Thanks for the help. Not sure if splitting will do because of how some of the cameras are wired to shared corners. If have to run new cable to the bare corners. On another note, I think I'm going to go with the Hikvision 2342WD-I for the corners and 2542FWD-IS for my porch area. One...

Hey guys. I'm a new home owner that is in need of installing a decent IP camera system. It's a single story and all of the pre-wire locations are ran to the corners of the house, wall mount style. I'm thinking of some decent turret style cameras, but am definitely open to other suggestions...
