    I had mine playing back on the web browser live stream but not on the ivms 4200, setting the sub stream fixed that for me you had me check that I had sound on playback which I do thank goodness. I have a few nvrs running a spread of my 23 cameras, all are recording sound

    No sound Hikvision ds-2cd2347g1-lu colour Vu help please. Solved it

    I needed to set the sub stream to video audio too, not easy to see or find until you know where it is and what you are doing, it's the only one of my 12 hikvision cameras that has sound so never had to try and set it up before. I am old too lol

    Just installed a Hikvision Color Vu very Impressed

    Nothing in the specifications mentioning IR, I did read on the web somewhere that it doesnt see IR but uses the white light leds. IR seems to have no affect on mine and the white led lights seem to have no affect on my Hikvision darkfighter. The two cameras are on the front if the garage no more...

I bought a load of hik vision from here but I had to set up an online account which was easy enough. £131 for the G2 and 130 for the G1 inc delivery. IP ColorVu | Buy Online | CCTV Direct Online I...

    I turned 2 ptz clones into bricks updating them fortunately I managed to find the original firmware with the help of a couple of Russuan members of this forum, which fixed both cameras with the installation of the original firmware. No more updates for me unless it's already broken lol

    Cable splitters and poe problems.

    Just fitted a Dahua Eagle 4C IP -TUR-FW with night colour using the POE cable splitter sharing the same cat5e cable as my Hikvision DS-2CD2045FWD-1 2.8mm 4mp. Works A OK.

    Just installed a Hikvision Color Vu very Impressed

    Whether it's a setting I can adjust or need to adjust, but the Dahua eagle has a better day light image than my Hikvision color Vu. In pitch black darkness, which is what I have here the Hikvision image is superior . Very happy with both purchases now I have relocated the Dahua

    Both cameras are set to factory defaults, not had them long enough to decide what if any adjustments to try.

    Just installed a Hikvision Color Vu very Impressed

    I have relocated the Dahua now and am much happier with its night time image. Its led was interfering with the function of the Hikvisions led. They were both pretty close for testing purposes. There is no ambient light no street lights nothing bar it's own night LED'S

    Initial review of the DS-2CD2347G2-L(U) ColorVu 2.0 IP camera.

    Is the G2 any better than the G1 in day light, I have recently purchased the G1 and found it mediocre in the daylight but excellent in dark. I have left all settings as it comes out of the box. The daylight function isn't really an issue for me as I need it for night viewing.
