    NAS (NFS) configuration problem

    Interesting, after more than an hour letting it be, now I can see it as uninitialized in the storage tab... Formatting is very long, but I can see files being created. Then it stop, in the middle, I restart the formatting, it restart at 57%. Does anyone can explain why it's creating all those...

    NAS (NFS) configuration problem

    I'm just going to continue that post here, since it does not seem to be related exactly to the problem in the above mention thread. Hi, I set up my nfs server (linux) with the following options /video * (rw,insecure,no_root_squash) and can connect to it either with my linux machine or my...

    Solving some NFS issues on Hikvision cameras

    Hi, I'm having problem connecting my DS-2CD2732F-I(S) V5.1.2 build 140116 to my NFS server. I created a nfs server on a fedora box, I can mount the folder from other machines. But it seems that when I configure my camera, nothing is happening. Yes, I rebooted the camera after configuring it. It...

    NAS (NFS) configuration problem

    Hi, I'm still playing with the different features of my DS-2CD2732F-I(S) (thanks @milkisbad). I'm very happy with it. But I'm hitting a problem now that I want to configure the NAS to record the video when there's some motion. So, I created a nfs server on linux. I can mount it from other...

    I've been robbed, need a video camera asap

    Click2Stream... I sent them an e-mail a week ago to try their cloud recording application. They did not even answered my e-mail. I can imagine what would be their support if you had any problem.... lol, they'll never make me pay for that kind of service...

    I've been robbed, need a video camera asap

    @bp2008: Yes, this one is the only one who's going to be so high. All the others will be under the eaves (9 feet). Now to the next one. I'd like to have one for the front door. Should I get a bullet camera, set in the corner of the house, that would cover the alley coming to the front door, or a...

    I've been robbed, need a video camera asap

    Thank you all for your help. I'm not done yet, far from it :), but I have my first camera up and running. Just to make you laugh, here's why it wasn't working. After I installed everything in the attic (it's probably 120F in there), nothing was working. I removed the PoE injector, plug-in my...

    I've been robbed, need a video camera asap

    @nayr: Yes, I'm a bit afraid of that, I'll probably need to get another cable to check. It's not a really big deal, since if it's not the problem, I'll still need that other cable. But it's a nuisance I would have happily spared myself with everything that is happening. @milkisbad: no, it...

    I've been robbed, need a video camera asap

    Here we are. The camera is set high up there. The cables go through the attic and the power injector is there between the camera and the router. Now my problem is that I cannot connect to it anymore :(. I checked the cables. The camera get power, the other one, I can connect a pc on it and it...

    I've been robbed, need a video camera asap

    Lol, the thieves burglarized an other house in the neighborhood. Unfortunately, well no, fortunately, they chose the only house in the whole area that actually have cameras. We've got nice shots with their car, their faces .... hopefully they are the same that burglarized my house and I'll have...

    I've been robbed, need a video camera asap

    Wife decided that it was more important to replace the garage door (very old with a window). Almost done with that, some stucco and I'll be done. But my camera is not set up yet :(. But I'm still playing with the software... If anyone has experience with iVMS4200 and FTP server, could you shade...

    I've been robbed, need a video camera asap

    @milkisbad: lol, when it was telling to restart the software, I was rebooting the camera not restarting iVMS. Now that I restarted it, it started recording. Thanks! Now to the next step. I set up a ftp server on a linux machine. It's actually straight forward. I tested it from an other machine...

    I've been robbed, need a video camera asap

    @milkisbad: Thanks, I was able to set the parameters there. But how do you actually start the recording? If I just press on the recording icon in iVMS, it just tells me that there is no space on the HD, since I did not configure a HD, just the google dr. Well, it did take into account some...

    Hi Milkisbad, I installed the pkg, restarted my browser (tried chrome and safari), now I have the menu, but I don't have the view. It says something like "Failed live view". ptz, yes, that was a stupid question :)

    I've been robbed, need a video camera asap

    Ok, got the camera. Before putting under the eave, I plugged it in to my mac and was able to change the IP address. Now I'm connecting to it through the web browser. I tried with safari and chrome. Attached are the screenshot. Don't look at the image yet, I've set it up outside of course...

    @framednlv: I will create multiple threads for different topic. I'm getting my first camera today and will take picture and record everything so that new like me to this area can get started right away. I will try WebHome and give feedback. @bp2009: I found 2 great spots. The first one is in the...

    I've been robbed, need a video camera asap

    @milkisbad: Thank you, that's exactly what I'm looking for. Except that I don't have windows. If there is no way to run mac or linux, I'll probably have a windows vm running for now. @nayr: Thank you. Yes, I totally agree with you. My goal is first to get something running. 1 camera, recording...

    @bp2008: Thank you, that's sounds straight forward. I actually like the idea and gives me lots of option :). I'm starting to love this ;), if only I could have that camera up and running already we would feel much safer and my wife could start sleeping again....

    @networkcameracritic: I actually saw your review, I was tempted with this one, but I decided to go with something a bit bigger, I like the fact that it is visible. Only that should deter at least some of the burglars, right? Along with my Warning sign about dogs. Well, I have a cat, that count...

    Thank you. I contacted milkisbad (hum, I drink raw milk every morning, lol)... I agree, it is not worth the wait, especially for the first one. If I can't order one today, I'll probably get a fake one at least, ahahahah. But hopefully, I'll order one today and get it in the next couple of days...

    I've been robbed, need a video camera asap

    I love the idea for a quick set up, Thanks! Would that work on any IP cameras? - - - Updated - - - You have a point. I probably should get a NAS, and then transfer what ever I need in the cloud.

    Hi, I wanted to set up video camera around my house for a long time... Well, I waited to long. Just got robbed. it's pretty bad, but let's get to my questions knowing that I don't know anything about this subject (except for the past 2 days doing research on the internet). To understand my...
