    Hikvision Nvr Hiddns configuration

    So wasn't getting it to pick up automatically, set the nat on the nvr to manual and then added the ports manually to nat on the router and it now works. :)

    Hikvision Nvr Hiddns configuration

    Hello guys, Just installed a Hikvision ds-7616-ni-e2, all cameras connected and showing up on the dvr. Im having a problem making thr nvr work with Hiddns. All the cameras are individually configured to work with Hiddns, and they work fine, with some NAT issues on the router limiting the...

    Hikvision Turbo HD DVR vs NVR

    I was actually considering using the Turbo HD DVR as an NVR for upto 16 channels IP Cameras. Have you had any experience with that? But found that I might be limited, so I just went with an NVR without POE, I'm doing POE separately, cabling is much easier and probably even less expensive and...

    Hikvision Turbo HD DVR vs NVR

    My network is 10/100mbps, will it be sufficient to carry the stream from 16 3MP cameras, or will I need to upgrade to gigabit?. The switches are all gigabit and the NVR ethernet interface is gigabit compatible.

    Hikvision Turbo HD DVR vs NVR

    OK so I am considering getting a ds-7616ni series 16 channel dvr without poe, but it does have a built in 8 port switch without poe, as I don't want to connect the cameras directly to the NVR. I already have a few PoE switches to which I'll attach the cameras to, since the wiring will also be...

    Hikvision Turbo HD DVR vs NVR

    Yeah what I meant by network lag was that Analog Live view really was live, on IP I have been experiencing a delay of 1-2 second minimum.

    Hikvision Turbo HD DVR vs NVR

    hello guys, So I need a recorder for my cameras, was looking at the options and saw that Hikvision has these Turbo HD DVR's which support Analog, HD TVI and IP cameras. These look great from a flexibility point of view, as my experience with IP Cameras hasn't been completely positive; due to...

    Best HD Technology?

    Using a computer with IVMS 4200, not using a DVR for just two or three cameras at the moment. Yes it is for access control. One DS-2cd2032-I is on 5.1.6, and the other is on 5.2.0. Need to upgrade the firmware on both, how do I go about doing that? I guess I'll have to try a Dahua as well, for...

    Best HD Technology?

    Ok so adjusted the i frame interval to match the frame rate, it is better around 1 sec delay now which is bearable. So if I use 25 fps then should i match the i frame interval? what's the deal?

    Best HD Technology?

    I don't understand why it's so high, i have set it at main 1080p, constant bit rate of 2048 KB at 16 fps, which is a low setting . If it was less than one second, then it would be acceptable.

    Best HD Technology?

    Yes one will be at the entrance, and one will be covering the walkway. Others will be indoor. Since all the other options don't have any lag, this is the main problem noticed and pointed out by the end-users.

    Best HD Technology?

    I am experiencing around a 2s delay on accessing from a computer wired to the router which is wired to the camera, on ds-2cd2032-I. Is there any ideal setting for a 100 Mbps Network? Or is there specific topology? I believe IP is the future as well, but reconsidering it because of the lag...

    Best HD Technology?

    This system is meant for a multi level production facility with very tight space and adjoining offices, mostly indoors. Cable routing and channeling is a hassle. Also thought about going wireless IP, but wired presented enough lag for me to not even consider that anymore. Budget is max $3000...

    Best HD Technology?

    Need to make a choice for a new 16 channel setup, so need non-biased(since this is an ip cam forum ;) ) advice. Have sampled Generic and HIK IP Cameras, have suffered some amount of lag so still considering some of the analog technologies as well. The issue is there are so many technologies to...

    Hoping to Learn

    Hi guys, Found this forum, trying to solve some problems. Glad that I found what looks like an active security/surveillance related forum, since there's a lack of widely available information on this stuff. Not to mention that you can hardly find any reviews of these products. So opinions are...
