Hi, sorry, reply was in junk mail. Everything works fine @ my end, so I don't come here much often. Did you specify the share on your unraid server as a specific shared folder? I'd make sure that you make something like that with a specific user/pass combi that has limited access right (to ease...

Yes the python watchdog works perfectly. I will now test the powerline connection to my garage and see if that is the culprit instead of the camera...

Hi yes I am now able to use FTP on the smart even Line crossing detection. I am not using it for the basic event motion detection, that will probably generate too many false positives. Did you enable snapshot on your camera? If you succeed, let me know if you experience any stability issues. I...

Dear users, I am running a WR model DS-2CD2032-I V5.3.0 build 150814. I had the camera running for weeks using the e-mail functionality for Line Crossing Detection messages and in addition motion detection. Everything ran fine and 100% stable, no hickups or freezes at all. However, I noticed...

No problem. Your code is pretty lean, mine is a big bigger but it's also an POC, just grabbed some sample python code from internet and adjusted it: import time from watchdog.observers import Observer from watchdog.events import PatternMatchingEventHandler class...

That sounds nice, what's the basis of your message system? Telegram? I'm almost done with the code (in python btw) but am interested in hearing other solutions. Did you enable snapshot already on your camera?

I get the occasional cat in my email, I don't really look so much at the movies that are recorded. I'll probably do that more if I see something suspicious, when someone is crossing the virtual border. I investigated the FTP upload option since I got fed up opening my email client to see the...

I paid around 50 bucks extra to get a white market version, it's a model DS-2CD2032-I and firmware V5.3.0 build 150814. I noticed that if I activated the snapshot option, it actually works (the FTPing) but I had one crash so far.... Now one day stable. Hopefully a firmware update will make it...

I got something working, you have to enable Event Triggered Snapshots (can be found under Advanced Configuration & Storage)

I experience the same FTP problems, very annoying.

I ran into the same thing just a few hours ago. The annoying this is that it also crashes the hikvision. It was 100% stable before I activated the FTP option...

Sorry, I thought Cookemnster was referring to the supplied I used to get my cams. I obtained my cams from HDsecurity , probably more expensive as compared to other suppliers but at least the firmware can be updated and you get support. I'd suggest you mail them, they respond quite quick to emails.

Sorry, not sure about this supplier! I thought you were referring to HDsecurity!

Yes, your equivalent sums it up pretty nicely. If I don't touch the replay option, everything will be fine but as soon as I load up old stuff.... I request the stuff from the cam, the cam requests the appropriate files from the NAS, the NAS serves them to the IP-CAM after which the CAM hands...

Dear ip-cammers, I've tested my DS-2CD2032-I and used the iVMS-4200 software under Windows 10 and the iVMS-4500 under Android. The cam saves the recordings on a SAMBA mount on my Synology NAS. I tested the setup when the CAM was linked in my local network. I was suprised to find that playback...

I succeeded! Unfortunately, I couldn't login using the default login/pass or my own, so I had to use the SADP tool (use Win7 compatibility during installation otherwise it won't see your device!!) and the website to generate the password reset code (https://www.ipcamtalk.com/hik-pw-reset.php)...

Allright, it seems that CH models are from grey market: From the website: "If your camera has “CH” in the serial number, you are most likely using a “gray market” product. Updating the firmware from this site can lead to several complications in those cameras, up to and including camera...

Thanks, how do you know they are only for WR? And what does WR/CH stand for?

Dear ip-cammers, I was wondering where to find a new firmware for my new DS-2CD2032F-I . I was told by the seller that the firmware could be updated. On the overseas.hikvision.com I've found: DS-2CD2x12,2x32 IP camera firmware v5.3.0_150513 and under the models it says DS-2CD2032-I. However...

I ordered one from HDsecurity, see my thread for more info.

I ordered from hdsecurity , he responds well to questions and confirmed that the unit is updateable. I paid more than a chinese version of the same cam but the support is better as well as the fact that I am able to update the device.

hdsecuritycenter will send the package to Europe no problem. The downsides are the higher package cost and the import charges. However, i do get a camera that is updateable and better service.

Thanks, I've found the 2CD2032F cam that I am currently focusing on. There is a price differences, but if the support is good and if the HDSecurity version supports firmware upgrades, I think it's worth it. Karmadhi, did the cams you bought support firmware updates? I tried to compare the...

Do you have a link? I can't find them using the HDSecurity query..

I looked up the fixed bullet cams from Hikvision The DS-2CD2032F-I(W) seemed to be ok so I ebayed it. Prices are much lower as compared to the ones of the DS-2CD2632F-I(S). Is that only because of the vari focal option? Or will the DS-2CD2632F-I(S) produced higher quality video?

lol, thanks for the heads up, didn't know about the WAF but now i do :cool:

Hi I need a turret, only have straight walls to mount my cam.

Not necessary, but it seemed like a nice option just in case. Do you have better options in case if I drop the need for varifocal?

Thanks, I'l look into the Huisun 10x. Nice to hear to actual experiences. Do you own the Huisun 10x as well?

Hi Blake, Thanks, I already contacted Milkisbad. I do live in Europe, don't know if he ships to my country. In addition, i checked some local suppliers and prices for DS-2CD2632F-IS vary from 420-600 euros whereas on eBay I can purchase one for ~150 euro. So you can imagine I'd still like to...
