tomcctv

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

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

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

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

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 ??

Hi go into menu then guide and follow instructions What difference is that going to make? Aaron Well it is going to fix your problem

Hi go into menu then guide and follow instructions

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.

Hi. Is it worth it ?? Look how old it is .... You will find its a CIF unit then you will need software to view. And if you are looking for apps ... Again it's too old They don't cost much now.

Hi. That is the end that connects to the camera board. You need the BNC end .... Either pull that cable out of the wall ... And you might see the BNC ( normally 6 to 12in) away from the connector in your picture

With your discription .... You could have a problem

Hi. You have not upgraded your recorder you have gone backwards Can you send it back ???

It's just the way some are made It's just like some have operator buttons on front panel some dont

Did a good job .... Yet you can't get it to work It's a baby monitor ...... Think about it.

Hi. It cost you a few $. .... Put in the bin Fluorite private cloud agreement Is your camera protocol you can't change that. It's a China p2p camera .... You buy as a security camera but it does not bother anyone buying this cheap crap and allowing your network to be open to a China company ( government owned)

Hi. Why would you want to buy a China cloud service camera ?? You will find its your firewall that is not allowing your camera to connect .... And it's doing its job as ezviz will put a big hole in your personal network. As far as English update ??? Do not think you have a hik cameras because it's not Buy something you can trust

It makes sence. A licence is only for one machine ...... It stops people from loading it onto multiple machines or even reselling the software on the likes of eBay. You have used a clean windows ... Removing the security key Which is not a problem just contact bosh support give your last key and you get a new one But if you are not the original owner then again you need a licence. It is that simple .....

Hi. Don't take any notice of the date PSS has been out for over 8 years ... Was for dvr then dvr and IP now dvr IP and cvi and feeds from Tvi Dahua units 2013 cvi was not even used .... So updates have been added

Hi . PSS does get updated

Why is it wanscam never help there customers Cherry you have two IDs on the forum ... is it not better for wanscam to help ? Not by saying call customers service or buy a newer camera burg of which costs your customers more money Cherry ... you are wanscam .... this is a forum why can you not help ... why are you asking customers to call China..... the price of phone call is more than what the camera is worth. Instead of changing your ID again help the post Is there a solution yes or no

Hi. Avtech is date dependant remove the drive from your recorder and you will not find the date required. Why can you not just burn it off now before it over writes. If your looking to recover data all ready gone ...... Then not with a budget unit like avtech

Hi. $170 will buy the cameras and dvr from that company so $320 with there install cost . There markup of $1.350 .... Is not bad ... Well it is bad very bad Plus after reading there website ... THEY DO NOT HAVE A UK OFFICE if they lie walk away

Hi . Good guys at eneo worked on projects with them in the past ...still got the bar bill to prove it They used a number of brands and if over 6 years old they used avermedia ..... Can you take a photo of your unit

Hi. Don't listen to people who only want to sell you there products Take a look at your link .... The camera does not match the recorder There is nothing wrong with going IP ... Infact your other post you had a quote for $1.200 for analog HD Going IP with POE NVR then it's just plug and play one cable from camera to dvr Don't waste money go IP you could install something like this over a weekend https://www.lorextechnology.com/hd-ip-security-camera-system/8-channel-hd-security-camera-system-with-ip-cameras/HDIP88DW-1-p
