    DS-2CD2335FWD-I or IPC-HDW5231R-Z

    With Aliexpress you are very likely to get a Chinese firmware camer that can’t be upgraded. I personally use 123securityproducts.com. They have good service, but any of Hik’s distributors in the US will get you a non-Chinese camera. As far as MP go, if you want just to see what is going on...

    Sort Live view camera list?

    No. Just organize them yourself by deleting camera 1 and the camera you want to be camera 1. Then add that camera as camera 1 and so on.

    Expand Avigilon Licenses or move to Hikvision

    My $0.02. Get a Hik NVR or Blue Iris. I personally prefer the NVR. If you are looking at going 12 or more cameras, go with a 32 channel machine. Generally as you get close to the maximum number of cameras, you run into bandwith problems. But the biggest issue is you always find a reason to...

    How to view Camera/NVR outside network on VPN?

    If you are using VPN, you can enter the NVR’s or camera’s IP address then log into the NVR or camera just like you are on the network. I do not know of any software that will allow you to view both at the same time. There maybe something out there that will allow streaming from two separate URLs...

    Question about HikVision DS-7608NI-K2

    Can’t answer all 1. Yes. My 9632 only displays the “ticks” when I access the NVR directly. The web GUI does not display. 2. Yes. You can login into the NVR remotely using VPN, use a table/iPhone and IVMS-4500, or stream from the NVR. 3. If the cameras support ONVIF. However, you will not get...

    Multiple RTSP streams on Hikvision NVR using same port

    I believe you can only have one RTSP session per camera port. I doesn’t matter how many URLs are assigned to the port. Try this connect the camera directly to you router. Connect to the first URL using a tablet, computer, or phone. Then try connecting to the second URL with another phone, table...

    Multiple RTSP streams on Hikvision NVR using same port

    How can it have two different URLs? The URL is made up of the NVR IP address, the RTSP port number and the channel number.
