    Need Help Please. CCTV Diagram

    Hi your post makes no sence....... What type of pictures ??
  2. Hi. No it's not the right way for doing it. It sounds like your installer is just using a DIY kit .... The cables are thin and should not be used. Plus you are talking about analog .... Look at IP system or at least cvi or tvi
  3. Why do you want to go with a cloud service ???
  4. Hi. Yes I would reset everything but don't do your motion setup as before ... Why not just have each camera set to its own motion

    Camera support

    Hi. The unit you have listed is discontinued it has been replaced by DS-7208HUHI-F1/N
  7. Qvis is largest in Europe and are makers there is no problem buying and are the only company to sell cvi tvi IP analog all on one unit
  8. Don't you mean the dvr is networkable ??? It is nothing like 16 IP cameras
  9. Hi. I would look at the qvis Quattro and you can use any format . Why are you using blue iris as well ??
  10. Hi. If hikvision gave you the answer and pin out and it does not work I would say your camera has other problems .. How was the camera powered

    HD-CVI / HD-CVI Locked to Reseller's equipment

    Cvi 720p is old 2014. It's just a sales pitch to buy everything from that seller
  12. That is the idea of onvif .... That it does ...... But sellers use it as a sales pitch .... Look for the onvif membership You are looking at $20 PTZ cameras THEY DO NOT EXIST. There is not much anyone can say about junk
  13. $ 20 PT cameras .... No they are not onvif. Save your money
  14. Hi. You ignored your other post ?? Also did you read this thread from top to bottom ?? It never got connected. I would bin your $25 camera You are paying $25 to allow someone full access to your computers allowing them to collect bank info ... Contacts list ...your browsing history even allowing strangers to watch your internal camera. So ask yourself why you want a camera in the first place ?? Most say for security reasons ....... Yet you are giving away all your security from the start..... P2P sounds good and an easy network setup and is free which attracts customers ......... You get nothing for free THERE IS ALWAYS FREE CHEESE ON A MOUSE TRAP

    Could anyone help me?

    Hi. You would not get a very stable image with a CCTV camera on a 10ft pole held by hand. I would look at a 4K GoPro camera and fiber camera pole 4K video will give you very good video for your needs .. And will also allow you to view video with a large zoom in play back Hero5 black 4K http://shop.gopro.com/cameras/hero5-black/CHDHX-501-master.html With a 28ft Carbon fiber pole.
  16. Hi. Rg59 with 12v 5amp power is the easiest and no extra costs of baluns
  17. Hi. These cameras are not worth the problems you get. Ok you have wasted a little money ..... But as talked about before on here ... Remove everything from your network and reset router and buy something better viewtopic.php?f=19&t=52222&p=293280&hilit=Ezviz#p293280
  18. That is right Xmeye is cloud . It sounds like you need to reboot recorder and do the guide again ...... For a laptop you need the serial no and just place that in IE Doing guide again look at the network page and see everything is green ... Anything red and you will only get a local QR code Also there is two buttons on the app for local you need to press the local login Xmeye Explorer IDmss Are all apps that will work with your system
  19. Did you scan the qr code with your devices ?

    I need help with a really weird DVR I have.

    It's clear that you know nothing about CCTV, or grammar and spelling for that matter. This unit was made in 2012. It's four years old, not ten. Even if it was ten, I'd still put the effort into it. Why? Because I don't want an overpriced digital online only piece of garbage. Stop peddling your "superior" product, thanks. The smart people will take it from here. CIF - Common Intermediate Format. Mainly used for analogue cameras and teleconferencing. This device is not CIF. It is H.264. And yes, it has network connectivity. Had you read a single line of this thread, you'd know that. And changing the "software", as you put it? Firmware is not software. Firmware is Firmware. If it was software, they'd call it that. It is entirely possible to create firmware for these machines. People have created some extremely useful firmware for old devices, ie; DD-WRT, Tomato, etc. But you wouldn't know that, because you're the guy that tosses money at a problem until geek squad comes over and fixes it for you. I wish you good day, sir. Please stop hijacking my thread with your useless nonsense. We were doing just fine without your input, thank you. I've received a message with some RF remote control codes to test out. Tonight I'll pull out the old harmony remote and see if I can't make it work. If I get in, I'll copy everything I can from the box and try to download a firmware file. I also have a couple of manufacture websites I'm going to try for a firmware file. We're have I tried to sell you anything ??? And you call yourself superior with a statement like this You can't use other manufacture firmware. That is impossible. How can answering your thread be hijacking And as far as you was doing fine if you are that stupid to think you can use another makers firmware or software .... Then you must be one of the most stupid person we have had on this forum If you believe what netz tells you. Then your fix is simple go to hikvision site they have firmware even sdk ..... But I will tell you you will never get it to work on your dvr. Let's say you do find a newer software .... It still will not work on your dvr because your hardware is wrong. Most DVRs for past say 8 years there software is telling unit to write to sata your on IDE which is slower so not a match and will give you problems if it loads at all as the software will look for sata. So I wonder why manufactures don't let people update there 10 old systems with there newer software and firmware ..... Like I said in second post hardware from over 10 years is too old

    I need help with a really weird DVR I have.

    Why it's still only cif It's over 10 years old It has no suppprt Does the op just want to play with junk or does he want a cctv system Because waiting for you to do your magic he will be wasting time

    I need help with a really weird DVR I have.

    It is clear you no nothing of CCTV ..... Do you understand what a standalone is do you even know what CIF is ?? What you are saying can not be done ..... It's not hate and nothing to do about freedom . It's about you saying take your 10 year old unit and change the software

    I need help with a really weird DVR I have.

    Nope, I don't expect him to rewrite the software, I'm already working on that (though I would appreciate collaboration with others). I'm personally just in it to collect info on whatever targets are available, currently targetting dvrs based on hisilicon stuff. Already got a booting kernel 4.8-rc4, and getting more working each day. Ok we will wait till you have his unit working ... No point anyone else being involved. But I will say it again .... Not that you are understanding It's a proprietary CIF over 10 year old ..... It is CIF crap

    I need help with a really weird DVR I have.

    NO. Please tell us how firmware (which is software) turn a over 10 year old recorders hardware (components) into a modern D1 or above without better hardware Please let us know how. Why spend money or time on a proprietary recorder with CIF and no network And it's over 10 years old ...... It will have no support. I didn't say anything about about making it physically better. I said that applying a firmware update to it to improve it (rtsp, support browsers other than IE, etc) can be easier on the wallet than buying an all new machine. Not telling him to 'download more ram'. Lets see, he got it for $5, I don't see any real reason to be worried about that amount, and why spend the time? To learn? Because you like to tinker? So you want him to rewrite the software ??? Or how is he going to get an update for a dvr that's over 10 years old..... You do understand this is a standalone ??
