You need Internet Explorer, indeed.

No

You started a tour.

No mouse? Plug another monitor (so you have both VGA and HDMI).

Or just access the device from a computer (Internet Explorer or SmartPSS) and reset it to default.

You need DS-7608NI-E2/A. If they sent you the wrong unit, just send it back.

It is disabled by default now on current firmwares, and has been disabled for a long time. But it used to be ON by default a few years back.

Disable UPnP on the Hikvision camera (in fact, disable it everywhere).

iVMS-4200 Lite

Seems to run normally when I'm at the venue over the in-house network

If that is the case, the problem should be related to your network connection/networking, and not the firmware.

Thank you for the response. Actually iVMS detect some of my DVRs which are not HikVision DVR.

They must be Hikvision OEMs.

iVMS-4200 is only for Hikivision devices. It will not work with this IP camera.

I am quite sure it is not ONE, mbut TWO IP cameras, up to 6MP.

You can keep your existing 4 HDTVI cameras, and add 2 Hikvision IP cameras (up to 6MP). You might also be able to add ONVIF cameras, but I would go for Hikvision cameras just to be on the safe side.

It could also be aliens.

For PSS you have to use Dahua units, either Dahua or any of their rebranded units/OEMs.

I can't be of any help here, but can you post the URLs you use to playback recorded files with RTSP?

Thanks!

You are incorrect, that's why it does not work. The pairs have to be 1-2 3-6 4-5 7-8, and you are pairing 3-4 and 5-6.

Stick to the standards, and use always the same color coding (I always do T568B).

In what order did you put the color cables?

You can just uninstall iVMS-4200 and install it again from scratch.

Use a good HDMI over UTP extender, and use good quality UTP Cat6 cable. 60m should be ok.

Otherwise, try lowering the resolution on the HDMI output (but then of course you will have worse image quality on the monitor).

Without knowing the prices I would prefer a DS-2CE56D8T-IT3 camera over a random unbranded camera any time.

And if the unbranded option is more expensive, even with more reason.

You are comparing apples and oranges. Hikvision is a brand that manufactures many products, like cameras, which have a sensor inside. Starvis is a sensor manufactured by Sony, that is just one of the pieces that make up a camera.

That said, the unbranded camera you are linking doesn't look good at all, it's just a generic OEM camera. And I have no idea where you got that it can record colour at night; it has infrarred, so as soon as the infrarred kicks in, you will have black and white image.

Cat6

I have no idea the brand .. it is probably a chinese unit, with a standard system (see the pic). I think it should work with any app, not only a specific one. Usually top brands have their own apps.

 

I forgot to mention, it has also UPNP, if I dont set upnp with 34567 and 8080 ports, I cant even access the dvr through web browser.

 

It seems it tries to connect, because it says "buffering" instead of failed to connect.

 

I was wondering if I update de firmware, the mobile port option will appear.. probably not...

"I think it should work with any app, not only a specific one" <<< wrong

"I was wondering if I update de firmware" <<< you do not even know the brand of the unit, how do you expect to be able to update it?

With a 2012 firmware and if your time is worth anything, you might just trash it and buy a new unit.

That maybe looks like an old Dahua unit? If so, you would have to use DMSS.

You need to use whatever app works with your unit, not just try random programs and see if they hopefully work.
