    How does push notifications work?

    In my case, it doesn't, so far. I’ve used my Hikvision DS-2CD2132F-IS as a doorbell for several years, getting a notification from iVMS 4500 on my phone whenever there was a motion event. Notifications have become increasingly unreliable over the last year, and now stopped altogether. I am...

    Hikvision NVR event settings override camera settings

    ONVIF is another way for the cameras to talk to the NVR, instead of Hikvision native. You do the motion settings on the camera, instead of in the NVR. And yes, if you make changes in the NVR, you may need to go back and redo the camera settings. It's been working for me since that post, though.

    ...and it's right there in your original instructions, *and* in the scope jpg. Cripes. Sorry. Changed that bit, redid the checksum, and we're all in. Thanks again.

    R0 / DS-2CD2x32 BrickfixV2 brick recovery and full upgrade tool - enhanced.

    I noticed that a bunch of it was different from my other camera of the same model. I was thinking about using the earlier mod, and decided against it. Which is the language byte?

    My DS-7616NI-E2 / 8P NVR sees it and controls it. There's some chinese in the OSD. Can't log into it from anything else. Should I start over with brickfix2EN.dav?

    Hrm. Updating another 2CD2132F-IS. Process appeared to sail right through, starting with brickfix2CN.dav and ending with firmware 5.4.0. Camera shows up in SADP, and accepts new network parameters. When I try to log in, though, I get Access Error: 404 -- Not Found firmware language mismatch...

    R0 / DS-2CD2x32 BrickfixV2 brick recovery and full upgrade tool - enhanced.

    I have another pair of hacked Chinese cameras, a DS-2CD2142FWD-I and a DS-2CD2145F-IS, both running 5.3.6. I'm not clear on how and when to do prtHardInfo to get the devType. Do I just walk through the unbricking process, update to brickfixV2CN, then to 5.4.0, and run the command in Putty before...

    Boom. That worked. The SD card is back. I did still have to go to 5.4.0 first. I also remembered to note that I needed to change the directory displayed in the Tftpd32 window to the current directory on desktop. Are you sure 5.4.5 is the latest? 5.4.41 has a later build date.

    Excellent, thanks. The file has a couple additional devtypes since I downloaded it in January.

    I did 0698 per the chart in enhanced_mtd_hack.txt. 5.4.41 has a later build date than 5.4.5.

    Yet another success story updating a pwned DS-2CD2132F-IS from something chinese and very old. The video was an invaluable companion. Noticed that Bradmph's archive doesn't include the whoslooking tftp files. Had to go to 5.4.0 before going to 5.4.41, but I got there. Sadly and...

    Hikvision NVR event settings override camera settings

    Answer was simply going through the settings again. When I switch a camera to ONVIF, the NVR sets itself to Continuous Record. Need to clear that in the NVR under Storage/Schedule Settings for each camera, and then set the schedule to Motion. Holding steady for several days now.

    Hikvision NVR event settings override camera settings

    I had various Hikvision cameras running on a QNAP NAS, recording motion triggered events into Surveillance Station. I am moving them to a Hikvision DS-7616NI-E2 / 8P running firmware V3.4.95 build 170626. My primary camera is a DS-2CD2132F-IS, which acts as my doorbell by notifying iVMS-4500 on...

    Full access to 2732 SD Card files

    That looks like it would do it. Once I have the path, can I address it simply from outside? I can't tell if the camera supports ftp or anything.

    Full access to 2732 SD Card files

    Well, no, the cheapest option is to copy them off the SD Card onto my NAS. Which is why I'm asking about SD card access in a thread about SD card access. Thanks for your suggestion, though.

    It took me a while to figure out that that serial number is just the 9 digits at the end, and that the verification code is case sensitive.

    Dahua NVR questions

    I started with a crap D-Link camera. I use it as a doorbell. It covers the front porch, and if it sees something, it pings my phone. That works great. The picture is terrible, and I only get real time, no remote review. I added a Foscam camera behind the house, just motion recording to its...
