First of all, HI! (first post )
Let me describe you the mess I have been dropped into
Recently the main IT guy from a company that I work for decided to disappear, leaving everything in a big mess.
My boss decided that I am competent enough to take over ...and so I did.
I managed to take control and sort out the IT department ...except CCTV
We have two DVR units.
One is - 16 channel AlienPro Lite (that's what's on the box) and the second one, I have no idea. All I know it's some kind of Hikvision setup (8 channels).
I've been asked to install 4 monitors in different parts of my company building so they can display one of those two DVRs.
Needles to say, as cheap as possible.
Due to costs and the layout of the building I had to be very creative.
I decided to go with Raspberry Pi.
My plan was to install Pi next to each of those 4 monitors and just use them to log in into a web based DVR stream.
First problem was the fact that all those web apps require an ActiveX or Windows in general to run.
I tried to emulate IE but it would not work.
Next step was to get a Microsoft Server to work as a "mother unit" and all the Raspberries could just remote in and use Windows to log in.
That worked out surprisingly well. Te quality is a bit "meh" but for that purpose it is good enough.
Unfortunately they would crash after 30-40 minutes.
I tried different browsers but that makes no difference. They just crash after a while.
At first I thought that it's the Raspberry Pi fault, but even on "mother unit" it would eventually crash.
As I mentioned before, I'm not to savvy wen it comes to CCTV and I just don't know what to do
Any help and tips from more experienced users will be much appreciated!
This is the error I'm getting (assuming that is useful in any way)
