Hi guys, I am looking to purchase Hikvision DS-2CD2432F-I(W) camera from a Chinese web site. When processing the order, it asks me to choose what Horizontal resolution I like. Options are 380TVL and 540TVL and I am not sure what to choose. Please help me to understand what is difference between 380TVL and 540TVL and which one to select? Thanks in advance

Hi ben_indo, Thanks for the reply. Why it is "not suppose tobe deleted"? Is it on purpoce or... Strange if I have admin rights, I wont have option to select and delete specific recordings..

Hi colleagues, I am using NVR model: Hikvision DS-7604NI-E1/A (FW version: V3.3.2 build 150522) and cannot figure out how to access recorded on NVR files and DELETE them. Don’t see such option at all. I have tried 3 different “access types” to the NVR: 1. Via Physical/Console access using embedded NVR software 2. Via iVMS-4200 Client Software 3. Via Web interface (both IE and FireFox) Checked all menus/tabs….etc. don’t see file DELETE option. What have seen and being able to accomplish is: a) Download recorded files locally to a laptop (but remains on the HDD of the NVR) b) Set Video Expired Time: The time for keeping the record files in the storage device, once exceeded, the files will be deleted. The files will be saved permanently if the value is set as 0. c) Set files to e overwritten in case HDD is full All that clear, BUT if I need to delete some records manually, cannot accomplish. Have anyone faced such requirement and found option/workaround? I would really appreciate any ideas on the case Thanks in advance. Cheers!

I have just purchased a DS-2CD2412F-IW camera. Having following problem: Alarm indicator on the front of the camera remains always red. As far as I have gone through the documentation, the alarm indicator should turn red when an alarm sensor is being triggered. I confirm, I have disabled all alarm check boxes/settings…etc., but the indicator remains red and never goes to BLUE. I have another DS-2CD2412F-I (Not WiFi) with identical settings, and there all is OK…if not armed, indicator stays BLUE. Anyone to advise how to fix? Thanks in advance.
