  1. This is going a long post ...... Read your first post ...... DVR works Now it's not ?? Can you get to the recorder menu like you have said ?? Now your talking IP cameras ....... Then you have a NVR not a dvr. Are your cameras POE or separate power.
  2. Hi. Recordings won't work and cameras don't ......... But you can get into menu of recorder. Then I would say your cameras power supply has gone
  3. Hi. Can you also give length of cable for each and type of baluns used
  4. Do you have a monitor on the dvr ?? Any settings to the camera IE brightness....... Needs the camera to reboot ...... So it's not a lockup But moving mouse to top left of a camera view give you quick access to camera settings
  5. Yes you can't run both on same device Did you check your log
  6. When you get the red circle you should drag the page down. But another thing is you are locked into a 3rd party cloud Go to menu on recorder then network then go to log See if you have something like this listed Ipmxeye 34 listed

    Looking for an IR Illuminator .... I think

    Hi. More illumination would not give you anymore information than what you all ready have. Even your daytime give not much info except there are cars parked there .... Would not pick up face or licence plate. Does not look like a scoop. The suv was driven .... Lights on driving backwards. I would guess a finance repo done with keys....... Why be able to drive the suv and only load onto a flatbed that's not a normal car theft. Does your town or city have a camera system ?? I would ask them to look at time and date of flatbed passing them.
  11. Hi. I posted last week that this is going to be a problem that will fill this site soon. If you have two new cameras that asks for a password before you can do anything with them ..... Is a good thing as this means you have the new range of hik cameras ....... But your NVR will need to have a firmware update for you to have full control. But your problem might also take out some of your other cameras if they are hik gray market. Also you can't flash old hik cameras with the new firmware. Just sent you by pm firmware and help on setup ... Click on downloads
  12. That was a quick 20 minutes .... From thinking to buying. As far as cameras .... Same as you installed on your 16 way a few weeks ago. But you can't use the name KKMOON with HD dome and high resolution in the same sentence KKMOON 960h is cheap analog junk ....... You should be looking at either cvi tvi or even IP systems
  13. You have not said what your problem is If you are worried about the red light ... That could just be something as simple as setting your motion or alarm ... As the power cut could of reset it. But you also say cameras don't display ...... So you rebooted ..... What you have not said after that is if your cameras came back on or not ..... You just went back to your red light problem.
  14. Hi. It's not the system it is bad security network P2P is never a good thing just like going out to cloud .... And cheap no name China systems are offering this more and more. If we asked you to post your IP address on here .....so as we can scan your network ... Your answer would be no. (I hope) But that is exactly what p2p and cloud does .... And people don't think anything about it. There are save p2p and cloud but not on cheap systems ..... There is even private cloud owned by you which leaves your recorder or cameras on local network and allows you to view on wan .... But it's your setup your port forwarding your passwords and the ability to only respond to the IP of the device you use to remote view. Setting up your network can be over the head of some people so they go for p2p or cloud for the simple setup But to make secure its best to learn network or ask other family members if they can or know of someone who can

    Crimping 'Swann' cables

    Hi john are you talking IP or analog systems
  16. Hi where are you based .?? It takes a little learning but like any system motion detect is not accurate...... Are you using analog or MP cameras with it
  17. H264+ belongs to hikvision and licences out to others ..... But even hik stopped in July for the new h265 NVRs and cameras in December Ic realtime have sold 4K h265 cameras and recorders for over a year ..... U.K. Internet tv is h265 stream

    Floureon CCTV home system power supply issues

    Hi. Did you use the cable kit that comes with the floureon system ?? And what is the camera distance from power supply
  19. Well what do you expect with stupid questions. You have a plug and play dahua ..... And you are struggling Like I said are your Foscam compatable ???? Or do you not have a clue Hi Tom, we should be more relaxed when offering explanations. He is somehow right about his problem. What he did not "see" was the fact the nvr is using 2 different network adapters and has a problem managing network segments when using same subnet on both. In fact, the NVR uses 2 different adapters but does not offer switching capabilities between them. So, he should use NIC1 as 192.168.1.xxx, set to default interface (in order to have web and other ports assigned to it) and NIC2 as 192.168.2.xxx. Cameras should have the ip as 192.168.2.xxx connected to NIC2. This way all trouble is gone. It would be better if you read the post from the start ......, op will not get a second gui from the camera inputs Only from the network output. If you think this is the right way to connect Then why answer the post bear in mind his NIC 1 is the POE ports ....the camera connection 1 to 8 Like I said plug and play ... If not then set camera up to match the NVR and then plug it in if not onvif But take a look at the ops reply ...... He does not want to listen so I stick by my reply
  20. To a point yes that is right if you are using a h265 camera on a h264 machine you will use more cpu while converting to h264 and then not see any bandwidth saving at all. H265 to h265 (not +h264) less cpu half bandwidth there are a few vms Geo Ave Vivotek Axis by the end of the year I have seen multiple tests showing Smart H.264 codecs saving more bandwidth than current H.256 cameras. Factor in current H.265 support for current VMS platforms and you have a mess on your hands. Example: I am running Genetec 5.5 at my office and I have the new Samsung QND-7010R with H.265 support and I can only use H.264 with Genetec at the moment. +h264 smart h264 h264 plus are all open source and can't communicate with each other H265 is the standard now 4K cameras or 4K movie stream

    Cloudsee / Jovision

    Another China company claim there in the USA .... The products for that app was discontinued in 2012 it says that on the China website. Either send it back or bin the dvr and use the cameras with another dvr. You don't want a China cloud service

  23. No you have not hit the jackpot....... There is only 1 I would trust Only because John is a friend of mine. Aventura. I have them sent to the uk. But most of your links are Shenzhen city not a good place to buy from
  24. They have a lot to be proud about worldwide Did you look at ic realtime link Also if your going 4K with audio look at h265
