    Having trouble using AXIS protocol on NVR

    Hello all, I am having trouble using the AXIS camera protocol on a Hikvision NVR (newest firmware) I can get the axis camera to work using the ONVIF protocol, but since the camera is a fisheye, I need to capture the panoramic stream which is the second stream. If I try using stream/channel...

    Hikvision and IQ Panel

    Before I start, I’d like to say that I read a related thread and did further research prior to asking this question. The content was dated, 2015, a lot may have changed. So alarm.com uses rebranded (to them) hikvision cameras. Can I hook up (to LIVE STREAM) an existing hikvision camera setup...

    Does camera only use internet data when viewing the footage?

    Cool, I’ll get it online and see how much data it draws. Do you know if Axis push to a remote server 24/7 or at all? (Obviously unless I remote view the stream) Even if it is recording locally? Thanks

    Does camera only use internet data when viewing the footage?

    I have 1 4MP hikvision camera connected to a router. I have 10gigs of “internet data” for usage on this router. Camera is recording to onboard SD card, but since it is connected to the internet will it still be using up my 10 gigs of data? Or will data only be pushed when I remotely view...

    No reboot hikvision cam via EZVIZ or iVMS-4500 app??

    Thank you for that clarification. EZVIZ allows you to “restore to default” from their desktop site but won’t let you reboot. Seems kinda stupid they don’t add such a simple feature

    No reboot hikvision cam via EZVIZ or iVMS-4500 app??

    I get it Fenderman, The SD card thing isn’t the issue I’m trying to address right now. Especially since the camera is in a place where I can reach it everyday. I’ll replace it so it doesn’t crap out. (P.S. it’s a Samsung 128GB) Maybe I shouldn’t have mentioned the whole SD card thing to begin...

    No reboot hikvision cam via EZVIZ or iVMS-4500 app??

    Fair statement, but it didn’t answer my question... aside from having a crappy SD card, is there a way to reboot the Hikvision camera via the EZVIZ app or any other app. Is there a remote management app out there??

    No reboot hikvision cam via EZVIZ or iVMS-4500 app??

    Is there a way to reboot hikvision cams via the EZVIZ app? I see a bunch of other options like reformat SD card but no reboot. Ironically the EZVIZ desktop site has a factory restore option, but... no reboot. I know I can reboot remotely via DDNS or ivms software, but I’m looking specifically...

    R0 / DS-2CD2x32 BrickfixV2 brick recovery and full upgrade tool - enhanced.

    So moral of the story is, if this was or may be the case, don’t update the firmware unless it’s absolutely necessary?

    R0 / DS-2CD2x32 BrickfixV2 brick recovery and full upgrade tool - enhanced.

    @alastairstevenson is this an R6 camera that Raimis is referring to? If so, there may be (future) hope for my R6 cams. I’ll check the mtdblock6 of the cams and see if they’re similar

    Open ports for VPN??

    Lol! I just couldn’t get my head wrapped around it since I’m not looking at the router nor am I on site. Just clarification. Spoke to one of my high level IT friends and he clarified everything for me. Thank you

    Open ports for VPN??

    I agree. Now my thing is will my devices be able to communicate on a 192.168.1.x range even though my router LAN is an external IP address and my Gateway is also an external IP address? I don’t care about DHCP since all devices that would be behind this router are static. I’d probably also have...

    Open ports for VPN??

    What more information would I need to provide?? Xfinity Gateway -> Dell SonicWall (I believe manages DHCP, Point of Sale, voip) my unmanaged switch (cams and NVR) is connected to Xfinity Router. P2P mobile app works with no port forwarding rules but can not access web GUI remotely. I believe the...

    Open ports for VPN??

    I have a client who has a firewall setup and their tech won’t forward any ports for me. I’d like to put in my own router for VPN service to diagnose any issues and perform firmware updates. Do I need any ports open to access the VPN? I’ve tried the port forwarding but oddly nothing was able to...

    R0 / DS-2CD2x32 BrickfixV2 brick recovery and full upgrade tool - enhanced.

    I’m in Houston (or Jacksonville once a month) I have a very nice discount with FedEx if anything. They do have a 4 pin port on the MB. I noticed you’re in Scotland. I’ll be in Poland for the month of May so I can take it with me and ship from there. It will probably be cheaper for me to ship...

    R0 / DS-2CD2x32 BrickfixV2 brick recovery and full upgrade tool - enhanced.

    @alastairstevenson i have about 20 installed with a client. Not bricked, but that upgrade firmware button on the NVR is there begging for them (or some “savvy” tech of theirs) to press it one day which would result in brick hell. I am pulling one down because it randomly degrades image quality...

    R0 / DS-2CD2x32 BrickfixV2 brick recovery and full upgrade tool - enhanced.

    I’m pretty sure you could just hold the reset button inside the camera while powering up the camera (probably like 30 seconds) then when you let go, I believe the camera restarts again and it will allow you to activate it P.S. resetting the password won’t prevent your camera from potentially...

    I’m just curious, is anyone working on a R6 version brick fix? I’d do it myself but have no clue what to even look for lol

    Hikvision NVR video lagging and dropping

    @cutterman could you go into a little more detail on this? What is link aggregation? How does it work in general? I’m assuming you’re saying to split the load? Thank you

    Hikvision NVR video lagging and dropping

    Hey, I have a rebranded Hikvision 64ch NVR with 52 cameras connected to it. I had 38 cams and added 14 more when the issue started. Sub stream (seems to) works fine, but when I open a single channel, the main stream will lag and jump a few seconds. No smooth video. Sometimes the main stream...

    R0 / DS-2CD2x32 BrickfixV2 brick recovery and full upgrade tool - enhanced.

    I had a similar issue to this once. Turns out the computer I was using which was also connected to the main network was assigning the camera an IPv6 address. Couldn’t connect to the cam for sh*t. I did a hard reset and made sure the camera I was configuring was not in any way connecting to a...

    R0 / DS-2CD2x32 BrickfixV2 brick recovery and full upgrade tool - enhanced.

    I may be drifting off topic with this question, but if not port forwarding, then what are my options? P.S. I do not have ports open for individual cameras (Except separate RTSP ports for 5 cams), only ports open are on the NVR and managed switches for remote config. I cannot access individual...

    R0 / DS-2CD2x32 BrickfixV2 brick recovery and full upgrade tool - enhanced.

    Well the cams are not bricked so I suppose I’ll wait for an R6 unbrick/convert to upgradable fix. I could donate an R6 version cam if this would speed up the process (PM me). I’m anxious for a fix. I made the mistake of buying CN cams and think one is hacked :/ To add to that, the CN firmware...

    R0 / DS-2CD2x32 BrickfixV2 brick recovery and full upgrade tool - enhanced.

    Thank you! I’ll play around with the non OEM Hik cams and see. Will this work for 2CD2145F? Idk if the camera is an R0 or not. I have an original 2CD2142FWD if it’s pretty much the same, maybe I can get the correct Hex digits from that and paste it to the 2145? P.S. the 2145F is not bricked so...

    I have 2 quick questions, - how do you reboot into mini system mode for telnet access? Just a power cycle?? - will this work for authorized by Hikvision reseller not Hikvision cameras like LTS or GNS?? They are Hikvision but they’re not lol

    Camera to Cloud (no NVR) recording. Need help

    Sricam is a paperweight (to me at least)... that was the very first camera I purchased to test and it's literally just collecting dust now. A computer must be on all the time for the camera to record. I don't even think it's onvif complaint as I tried to hook it up to multiple NVR's and none of...

    Camera to Cloud (no NVR) recording. Need help

    Ed, your probably limited to using the VMS software that came with your camera then. It's a little difficult to recommend how to help not knowing what cams you have. P.S. You can record remotely using a VMS software. You have to add the remote address of cameras you want to access. For example...

    Camera to Cloud (no NVR) recording. Need help

    No, what I did was use cameras with built in Micro SH slots and view footage on a mobile device or computer if need be. On the computer, I'd use the Hikvision Remote viewing tool.

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

    Is there any way to reflash the cameras ram/motherboard to think it's a US based camera? I think I saw something like this. If not, how would I proceed with upgrading firmware for these cams. I think I will brick one of these cameras on purpose in an attempt to revive it just to see what I'm...
