    Looking for Hikvision rep

    There are probably a network of Hik reps somewhere over there but if there anything like in the Uk you have to dig to find them and the US is wayyyyyy bigger than here so you will have to dig pretty hard

    Bullshit language mismatch... Yah... that was a quote from Nayr... just saying ;) as i said probably more than once, i dont use Dahua so cant comment but my take from what i know is Dahua is more enthusiast Hik is more for professionals... install set and leave Now IF you install Dahua more...

    Looking for Hikvision rep

    But what has any of that got to do with the original post ?? the OP wanted to look into purchasing Hiks or having a chat with a Hik rep, Nayr mentioned grey market Hiks need caution if purchasing and advised to look at Dahuas instead, ZD advised to look at private label Hiks, i said aint nothing...

    Would it be accurate to say you use Dahua because it has a better OSX UI or not ?

    Looking for Hikvision rep

    Agreed if there left alone, and i have no doubt Dahua users would say there UI is better but without using Dahua software on the PC, DVR and mobile device including handhelds i have no way of arguing for the better

    Looking for Hikvision rep

    Which re affirms my thoughts, Dahua cameras are better for the enthusiast as they allow users to mess with the firmware without issues where as Hiks are designed and or locked down to not allow this to happen, both can be used by anybody but for the enthusiast who wants to play with firmware...

    Looking for Hikvision rep

    If you buy anything that has been hacked it will be a bullshit language mismatch and any other magnitude of problem, if you buy an official anything it will be fine, Nayr prefers Dahua and some of us prefer Hiks, both have perfectly reliable hardware, from what i know which is not as much as...

    We have new software & a new theme!

    Always appreciate any work you do Mike so this is not a criticism, more of an observation, the forum fonts all look a bit small, user names looking down through each sections general area, fonts and text for user names is too small and light as well as the post header, all too small

    Turret mounting position

    yes i know dat lol, but because i have no experience with the Dahua software i was unsure as to what angle the image would be displayed, at a guess you can flip vertical for upside down but does it have a 90deg option because if the lens and IR are supposed to be mounted inline horizontally then...

    Need help with a system for my work

    agreed mixing and matching will give issues, dahua cameras with a Hik NVR will provide a picture but you will not be able to utilize the features properly, either buy one matching set or the other This is the easy part, the hard part is fitting it all properly and making it available in the...

    Need help with a system for my work

    Some will say Dahua, some will say Hikvision, few to non will say Foscam, Security cameras by there nature need to be reliable, secure and have decent support, speaking for Hikvision if you buy from an authorized re seller you should get good support and relatively reliable software for Web...

    NVR display for offsite location

    I know this sounds a bit low tech but what about running an NVR hooked up to a 42Inch TV at the second location showing the camera feeds and setting up a single cam hooked into the NVR looking at the Tv screen, then just access the single cam on its own via a web browser Bandwidth would be...

    On the clip the saturation looks like it still needs to drop some more and the fps need to go up It just looks too colorful, it might help loose that glow the red balls show on there top edges The resolution is better but playback just lacks that fluidity running at 20fps Trouble with...

    Start of my build out.

    i never like domes on there sides tbh, dust and particles settle too easily on them, looks like you could have mounted on the ceiling in the corner just above the front door current location this would definitely help with minimizing dust collecting on the dome and also it helps to make the...

    ds-2cd2542fwd MiniDome Competition Snooker table install

    AS a personal preference i like the higher resolution, better view around the table and just a cleaner image, just a shame about the ghosting on the balls, maybe lowering gain and DNR would help, as for saving storage space, can you not set up events ??

    Cabling to Faceplate

    so it is possible to set channel 2 /3/4 to accept a different IP addy from a different channel ? i only ask because the switch would have to be physically connected to a port on the NVR ( port 1 example 192.168.0.4 ) to configure channel 2 you would have to manually add an IP addy from where the...

    Cabling to Faceplate

    well thats new to me, you can take camera feeds, input them into a switch and have a single cat 5 cable go from switch to an NVR to see the multiple camera feeds, how exactly does the NVR demux multiple feeds from a single cable ??

    DDoS attack from NVR

    Yeah just before the DDOS attack i noticed my NVR was getting hammered for a password hack, luckily it is complex and i have the NVR set to let me know if anyone is accessing it, took it off line and changed the ports which solved the issue, all quite again But NAYR is right, should really use...

    Cabling to Faceplate

    Your NVR is the termination point, it is where your cameras finish. you can have your cabling in a cupboard but you need to have an end point for the cameras - NVR your only other option is to use a handheld device to view the output from the NVR and NOT have it on the Tv
