    'Failed to get stream' on ivms4200, but live view in IE and recording works fine

    IVMS-4200 is very stable the issues your getting are normally related to IP conflicts and basic setup issues. It's nothing major you have already proved that you cameras independently work, that's a good starting point. first check all network settings doing this one at a time with the other...

    Why is Blue Iris better than an NVR...

    cheap oneski maybe, regardless of system Wether using a PC or NVR don't buy cheap PC drives, there is only 2 drive designed for cctv's needs and only 1 that is worth using WD PURX 4tb or 6tb this is your life line to the heart of your system.

    Why is Blue Iris better than an NVR...

    As a professional installer I sit with different views to most diyers. True a PC with Blue iris has more functions, but it's just a PC and can't handle large systems to well great with 8 or so cameras but will fall over at 128 camera's, OS failures are all to common and system freezes. I will...

    Custom Firmware Downgrader 5.3.0 Chinese to 5.2.5 English

    don't connect direct to the PC always through a switch it responds better, but does sound like a camera I've been playing with but with camera connected to an NVR directly it 100% without issue, but on a LAN it would freeze and lockup in IVMS-4200. I found no real answer other than to use this...

    Don´t throw them away

    The biggest issue is faulty IR ring of the Hikvision Camera's. I've yet to find a real compatible replacement and replacing the blow LEDS take a bit of time and effort to trace which ones have blown de-solder them and re-solder in new ones. You can cheat thought by fitting a £3 ebay ir Ring and...

    Hikvision NVR DS-7104N-SN/P DDNS / HiDDNS setup "Invalid operation"

    The Picture above is correct, you can use the international ezviz site, you just have to set it up as custom as show in the above picture. It works just fine on my 7832n.

    Storage recommendation for large site (32 cameras)

    Although I wound normally agree with @nayr if your going big 32+ cameras, Hikvision is your better option, but not with Chinese imports! Agreed that I would go for a non POE NVR and use a quality POE switch with 4+ 4tb WD Purple drives with RAID setup. If you want Local viewing at another...

    iVMS-4500 outside LAN okay, inside LAN connection fail

    sounds more like a router issue than anything else, if your set for local ip at Home and DDNS away. your Forwarding is working on away but home is not. I have a similar issue as I have multiple access points, but can only connect to my nvr from one access point and not via my router (vodafone)...

    Can I import a non hacked firmware onto Hikvision DS-2CD2532F-IS?

    If the camera original came with a firmware of 5.23 or lower then Yes, but if your asking now your 2 years to late and the answer is No, they are hacked Chinese and that's it for now at least.

    [MCR] Hikvision packer/unpacker for 5.3.x and newer firmware

    IPVM is ok. but it's over priced and misses out a lot of true information, so much so that IPCAMTALK is a much better place, so much so that it's free for all, and the people here know what we're talking about all the best help and work arounds all come from here and free.

    Strange as the camera will downgrade, but you may have to use him tool on the digicap.DAV file just to change the region to Chinese. That should do the trick, after that an mtd hack is needed
