    iVMS-4200 PCNVR web access playback video "freezing"

    Same issue with completely different cameras/dvr. Playback via web interface has constant freezes where it skips around 4 seconds Downloaded the file, same thing happens in VLC player. However when I enable hardware decoding in VLC settings, it doesn't. Played with 'Wondershare' player at...

    Bad video on brand new CCTV, why?

    HDTVI cameras require high quality rg59 copper cable, not cheap pre-mades. I have these cameras and tried with cheaper cable, image quality was terrible but not same issue as yours. Not 100% certain it is your problem but most likely, different cables create different problems. That seller...

    Hikvision 2CD2352-I 5MP

    Yeah I just re-checked and found it dropped alot. It was double a while back when initially released, probably because only a couple of sellers had it.

    Hikvision DS-2CD2342WD-I 2.8mm or 4mm Lens?

    To be fair, their prices are fairly normal with the discount (let's be honest, it's not a discount). Maybe 5-10 more expensive than the cheapest.

    IP Camera (especially for a night )

    Using TP link powerline adapter for the network. They don't work perfect but well enough. Power is local however.

    Motion detection too sensitive

    Anyone else find motion detection too sensitive on hikvision ip cameras even on 20%? A tiny plant barely moving in the wind sets it off constantly. Set it to lowest % and it seems nothing is ever detected (maybe that turns it off?) For comparison, on the same dvr I have several hikvision turbo...

    Smokin Deal on Hikvision DS-2cd2335-i 3MP - Mar 29th for $69.97 from a trusted vendor

    Re: Smokin Deal on Hikvision DS-2cd2335-i 3MP - Mar 29th for $69.97 from a trusted ve What settings are you running the 2335 at? Btw, to take a better screenshot, click the camera icon on bottom right. File will save to c:/users/(user)/web/capturefiles By default it takes a lower quality jpeg...

    Problem with IP cam at night, advice needed

    It happens with all cameras with built in IR...you won't see it every night so wouldn't worry too much.

    Foggy/Washedout Image DS-2CD2142-FWD-IS

    Tilt down so the soffit is out of the image, and rotate out so wall is out of the image.

    Problem with IP cam at night, advice needed

    Anti Fog is for when its foggy in day time. This is caused by the camera ir reflecting off water particles in the air.

    IP Camera (especially for a night )

    Here's a pic from a Chinese 2035 http://s8.postimg.org/y8e480ugj/20352.png I also have a 2325 (2mp with WDR) The night time image is better on the 2mp but it maybe due to it being the exir version.

    Can't add IP camera - DVR says Offline "(the user is locked)"

    I have this dvr too, recording an ip camera at 3mp. All you got to do is set it to 3mp from camera ui after its added to the dvr.

    Can't add IP camera - DVR says Offline "(the user is locked)"

    I had same problem adding an ip camera with a turbo hd dvr. When you first add it, the dvr tries to force login with its own password. If the camera has auto lock enabled, which it does by default, the camera will lock the device from which the login attempts originated from for 30 minutes. Btw...

    Mini PTZ v2: 4x optical zoom version

    Being cheaper is no explanation for such bad image quality at night. I'd ask for partial discount and say then maybe I'd consider buying another 10x, otherwise will leave negative feedback and go ahead with the dispute. Tbh, you should be harsh. The camera has issues and they're basically just...

    Mini PTZ v2: 4x optical zoom version

    Now see if you can adjust the shutter manually, my guess is either a firmware or hardware issue preventing the shutter speed from going low enough at night.

    Mini PTZ v2: 4x optical zoom version

    That image quality can't be right...even with poor IR. Have you tried changing some of the gain/exposure settings? I notice on my ptz that if I leave the gain limit at default, it will keep the shutter speed high at night and crank the gain up giving a noisy image. Limit gain and image quality...

    POS Arrested and another one going down

    My hikvision 4" ptz with 23x zoom was $140 (ex shipping) 2mp turbo hd, not ip. 100m IR 90 degree/s speed and -15 tilt. There is an ip version of the same camera, same sensor, size, zoom etc but its more expensive and won't have English menu.

    SMTSEC 5MP Low LIght 1/2" Sony IMX178 Dome

    The camera is tweaked to give an enhanced image in low light without IR, same as with the IMX178 pictures posted a few pages back. Whatever trickery is used is will have negative effects. The image looks amazing, until you see a moving person composed of speckles and missing half a leg. The...

    SMTSEC 5MP Low LIght 1/2" Sony IMX178 Dome

    The numbers don't mean anything, nor do the pics from Sony's page as it's an advertisement. I agree the picture posted in that blog looks good but it is clearly 'enhanced' most likely with a very low shutter speed. Similar to the imx178 picture posted here where the moving person is...

    SMTSEC 5MP Low LIght 1/2" Sony IMX178 Dome

    I do actually, I see no mention of how they perform during motion in the blog. The 225 looks like nothing special here https://shopdelta.eu/ip-vandalproof-camera-apti-13v2-36w-onvif-2-0-960p-3-6-mm_l2_p6834.html...

    SMTSEC 5MP Low LIght 1/2" Sony IMX178 Dome

    I don't think the 225 is as amazing as you think, just that particular camera the person bought was optimized for low light settings so probably has extremely low shutter speed.

    Re: Smokin Deal on Hikvision DS-2cd2335-i 3MP - Mar 29th for $69.97 from a trusted ve On the 2132, if you set it to 1080p, does the image get wider but shorter? I have a 3335 and you can only either choose between stretched 1080p or a big crop. I'm wondering if the xx32 still uses the old 3mp...
