    Is there such a thing as a Low voltage or POE powered IR Illuminator?

    https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32905690146.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.56114c4difWKYL These are the cameras I've been using, the 720p 48v one, covers about as much area in IR light as the 150w security light I used to have to use with my PTZ cameras. The ad says these are 720p but they are...

    Is there such a thing as a Low voltage or POE powered IR Illuminator?

    Bringing back an old thread to inject my 2 cents. I ran into this problem with my PTZ cameras, none of them came with IR LEDs built in. I was going to do the 12v converter method with a 12v illimunator, but then I remembered, I had bought a junk 1MP $17 camera off aliexpress one time that had...

    Pulsating/iframe problem on Hikvision NVR recordings

    Most of my cameras only have i-frame intervals measured in seconds from 1 to 5 seconds, playing around with it does have an effect, for example if I set the i-frame interval to 5s and I set to h.254, HD, 2048 Kbps, CBR, 5 fps, I only see a pulse about every 5 seconds, but if I keep everything...

    Pulsating/iframe problem on Hikvision NVR recordings

    Did you do all this on each camera or do you have a way to set the encoding on the recorded video separately on your DVR?

    Pulsating/iframe problem on Hikvision NVR recordings

    I've tried every combo of bitrate, framerate and encoding available on the cameras, it doesn't seem to matter. I can't find anything to modify on the NVR that would apply to the recorded streams.

    Pulsating/iframe problem on Hikvision NVR recordings

    Ok thanks, this video is crystal clear in the live view of it though, both in ivms-4200 and browsing with chrome. I guess the processor is just losing something in the writing to hard disk. I think this started happening after I added the last couple of cameras to that machine.

    You don't see what looks like noise in the entire frame once per second at 1080p?

    Pulsating/iframe problem on Hikvision NVR recordings

    Hi everyone, I hope someone has run into this before. I've noticed that on playback of recordings of cameras in my Hikvision DS-9632NI-i8, the video is not as good as the original stream was, it appears to pixelate/pulsate every second on the keyframe. I can't see anywhere in the NVR settings...

    HIKvision NVR alternative

    I built out with hikvision so I'm mostly stuck with it, but I have recently been trying out a Watchnet 4 camera system, and I have to say their software seems much cleaner and their tech support got back to me right away by email when I had a question.

    ivms-4200 no Superuser?

    I hope this isn't a new bug. I uninstalled 3.1.1.11 because it was crashing and I just installed 3.2.0.10 and it asked me to enter a username and password, which I did, and now I have a client I can't do anything with. "The user has no permission" to add devices , import a config file or...

    Is there any way to stop a Hikvision NVR from modifying settings on an ONVIF camera

    So it turns out it was not the NVR causing the issue at all. After much trial and error, I discovered that the only thing in the logs for the camera which correlated with the reset was motion detection. Disabling motion detection on the cameras stopped them resetting their bitrate to 64kbps...

    Is there any way to stop a Hikvision NVR from modifying settings on an ONVIF camera

    They do have the option for a "viewer" account, I never even thought of that. I'll give that a try, thanks.

    Is there any way to stop a Hikvision NVR from modifying settings on an ONVIF camera

    Is there any way to stop a Hikvision NVR from modifying settings on an ONVIF camera? Mine keeps resetting the data rate on some of my aftermarket cameras, it doesn't matter if I set them up on the camera or the NVR, a couple days later it gets changed from 2500kbps to 64kps on the main stream...

    Hikvision NVR resetting some ONVIF camera settings every night

    Hi, I've got a DS-9632NI-I8 on V4.22.000 build 190821and some of my ONVIF cameras, but not all, will have their main stream set to 64 kbps over night. I set them to 2500 kbps in both the NVR and on the camera, but it only lasts one day. I didn't notice this happening with previous firmware but...

    Hikvision NVR: Is it possible to rename channel name?

    On my onvif cameras these names keep reverting back to IPCameraXX, it's not because of reboots or double logins, I'm not sure what triggers it, I get maybe 8 hours before they switch back.

    Hikvision NVR: Is it possible to rename channel name?

    Anyone figure out how to rename a channel for an ONVIF camera? Under Image->OSD Settings where you'd put the display name it says "This camera does not support the function." It seems to pull the name from that to write the menu name. So all my ONVIF cameras are stuck with IPCamera 1, 2 etc...

    Multiple RTSP streams on Hikvision NVR using same port

    The IP 192.168.126.202 is the NVR. Ubiquity disables RTSP on their cameras and then gives it to you as a service of the NVR. I can connect to all 5 of the cameras via RTSP through the ubiquity NVR with VLC concurrently on the internal LAN using each URL but I can't get more than one at a time...

    Setting up IP on Hikvision nvr

    Did you get that working? When you click DHCP on these NVRs, they often won't show the IP address they have pulled, but they will be connected to the network and you can locate it with SADP. (make sure the lone LAN port above the USB port on the back of the NVR is the one you are using to...
