Hikvision camera picture download Windows ISAPI utility... downloads pictures from SD card ready for timelapse
A little more information to help diagnose the memory leak. When playing back the snapshots using the integrated "Play" button, the memory usage quickly increases until all availalbe memory is exhausted. It took less than 1 minute to completely max out all 32GB on my laptop. This was during... -

Hikvision camera picture download Windows ISAPI utility... downloads pictures from SD card ready for timelapse
The camera capture quality is set to "High" which results in picture files that are just shy of 2.5MB each. Agreed. You could argue it's not worth the effort to change but the long files names might be problematic if storing the images within nested folders where the Windows 255 long... -

Hikvision camera picture download Windows ISAPI utility... downloads pictures from SD card ready for timelapse
I'm genuinely pleased with the new Version 2.0. I very much like the organization of the different snapshot types into separate folders and the addition of the "Play" button is an unexpected bonus. On a quick testing I've just carried out the app seems to work flawlessly pulling down both... -

Hikvision camera picture download Windows ISAPI utility... downloads pictures from SD card ready for timelapse
I assumed that if the requests to the camera were filtered by event "type” that it wouldn't matter if there was two or more snapshots with the exactly the same timestamp. I guessed the camera would only return the snapshots for the chosen event type. Personally, I'm eternally grateful when... -

Hikvision camera picture download Windows ISAPI utility... downloads pictures from SD card ready for timelapse
OK. If I understand correctly setting the picture download parameter to "allPic" may create problems if more than one picture exists within any one second interval if both continuous and event capture are both enabled. There's a couple of considerations that might help reduce the amount of... -

Hikvision camera picture download Windows ISAPI utility... downloads pictures from SD card ready for timelapse
I've set both timed image capture and motion detect capture as per the image below. I reformat the SDcard to be sure there was nothing corrupting the images. Note that the timed image capture file names are suffixed with "_timingCap" which differs to the example you provided earlier although... -

The file type is "Motion Detect" in my case. See below. I'm also still on Firmware Version 5.7.15. Thanks for your help. -

After confirming I could reach the camera from my desktop PC via the NVR virtual host IP on port 65001 I also tried using these settings in the app however, exactly the same result as the screenshot provided earlier. -

Hoping for some suggestions on what I'm doing wrong. I've set up the HikPictureDownload utility as described but I keep getting a prompt saying there are no picture to download. I've checked and have snapshots saved on my Cams internal SDcard. The IP address used provides direct connection to... -

Despite the 76xx series NVRs being moved to discontinued status Hikvision has released a new firmware dated 21 Jan 2024. Find the firmware here: DS-7608NI-I2/8P No release note available however, since its only a minor point release don't expect to see any significant changes. Likely only a... -

lineCrossing shutter speed change app - Readable licences
Finally, had some success. Camera Model: 2CD2386G2-LSU/LU Camera firmware: 5.5.801 Scenario: Camera connected directly to a Hikvision NVR. Virtual host enabled. Results comment: 1. The alarm server was only reachable from the camera when port was set to "80". All other port numbers failed... -

lineCrossing shutter speed change app - Readable licences
I set the IP address of the server app in the alarm centre of the IP camera. That did not appear to work. I then wondered if I should try setting the IP address for the server app in the NVR instead. That also did not work. Virtual Host is enabled on the NVR. The camera is directly... -

lineCrossing shutter speed change app - Readable licences
I decided to give it a try however, the app didn't appear to see the line crossing trigger events from my camera. Probably something I've missed. I opened the firewall to the app. Any reason the app might not work for a camera located behind an NVR? I have a Hikvision NVR with the... -

VCA search not working - No Intelligent Record File
@Mike_Du I look forward to receiving my golden ticket! If you've recently changed out your HDD and started to see this problem or maybe it' never worked, its more likely than not the HDD. Some of the new crop of SMA (Shingled Magnetic Recording) hard drives now on the market don't have... -

VCA search not working - No Intelligent Record File
I'm on my phone so I'll keep it brief. The HDD is not fast enough to store the vca data. I learned the hard way too that not all Hdd are equal. Replace it with one of the recommended HDD. I'll post more when I'm back on my desktop. -

2CD2387G2 - Third Stream
To access the third stream setting you need to place the VCA resources setting into “Monitoring” mode. Only then will you get access to 3rd stream In the video/audio menu. -

2CD2387G2-LSU/LU Tear down and refocus (with pictures)
If it looks like the lens body could be rotated and fixed in a different position, is it possible that its been installed in the wrong orientation and that there is a clearance hole in the lens base that should have lined up with the screw that appears to be fouling? I'll need to take apart my... -

2CD2387G2-LSU/LU Tear down and refocus (with pictures)
That image showing lens base being at an angle to the CCD bracket would definitely explain the focus shift from left to right of frame on your camera. Seeing some of these issues such as poorly focused lenses and what I can only describe as a manufacturing fault with the lens not being exactly... -

2CD2387G2-LSU/LU Tear down and refocus (with pictures)
That's great you managed to refocus the cam. Shame the glue didn't come away as easily as it did in my case. It really did just peel off in one continuous piece after I broke the bond with a knife. There was no grub screws installed in the lens barrel. Only the threaded holes were present... -

2CD2387G2-LSU/LU Tear down and refocus (with pictures)
I recently purchased a 2CD2387G2 8MP ColorVu to replace a 2386G2 monitoring the driveway and front yard of my home. After conducting some side-by-side testing with the existing 2CD2386G2 I came to the conclusion the new 2CD2387G2 was not as well focused. Images from the 2CD2387G2 were... -

Remote Playback/Access Options For Hikvision?
I think you will find that if you grab the blue time line bar with two fingers and stretch it, the time line resolution will increase from hours down to minutes and seconds as it is stretched. -

DS-2CD2387G2-LU 4mm 8MP ColorVu out of focus, black pixels when zoomed in?
Yes. connected to a 7608NI-I2/8P NVR. Never had issues with H265+. I have G1, G3 and now G5 platform 8MP cams connected to the unit and not had issues (touch wood). I deliberately stay away from H264 since it consumes too much bandwidth/storage for my liking. I will give the higher bitrate a... -

DS-2CD2387G2-LU 4mm 8MP ColorVu out of focus, black pixels when zoomed in?
I did try plain H265 and it made no difference to image quality so bumped it back to H265+ The purpose of the images was to gauge the clarity of the image against a known benchmark to see if it was as least as good, same or worse. I deliberately used the same settings in both cams to rule out... -

DS-2CD2387G2-LU 4mm 8MP ColorVu out of focus, black pixels when zoomed in?
Just to be clear,both images have been cropped from a full frame. What you see in the samples are only 5% or less of the full scene. It was intended to show the level of detail discernible of objects at a distance. Both samples were taken using the same video settings of full 4K, 15fps, h265+... -

DS-2CD2387G2-LU 4mm 8MP ColorVu out of focus, black pixels when zoomed in?
I've managed to do some side by side testing with my 2CD2386G2. Whilst the 2387G2 focus does look consistent across the entire image, the 2386G2 gives a much sharper image with more detail. See attached images which have been cropped from the full image frame and zoomed. The cams are at... -

DS-2CD2387G2-LU 4mm 8MP ColorVu out of focus, black pixels when zoomed in?
Just picked up a 2CD2387G2-LSU/LU with 4mm lens last week. Its not installed yet for lack of time but on the bench for testing. Let me know if you have any tests you want performed to compare images. A standard test image is going to give the best comparison. -

DS-2CD2087G2-LU third stream
From memory you may need to change the camera VCA resource setting operation to "monitoring". Once set, reboot the camera and the third stream will become available. The drawback is that you will lose some smart events since the camera's processor shifts its workload to other functions. -

What is Hikvision "Live-Guard" and is anyone using it?
I watched the video but the functions he describes are pretty well the standard functions available in any G3 or G5 platform camera. The 2CD2347G2 is likely the G5 platform since they stopped making G3 platform cameras 12 months ago. If I understand correctly, the Live Guard feature needs...
