  1. Hi, I was wondering if anyone has any ideas regarding a problem I'm having with a Sentient 250Gb H.264 Network DVR purchased from Maplin. All is working correctly on the local network except more often than not when firing up the DVR Client from IE8 the DVR locks up (ie the live display continues, the mouse curor freezes and the box stops recording). A reboot generally fixes the problem and the DVR Client then functions correctly. I've a suspicion the problem lies with the Active-X software or IE8 - is anyone aware of anything I need to set to prevent this? Address from IE8 is http://192.168.1.110:49153/ - I've tried lower port numbers with the same result. DVR IP is fixed. The network is linked via a router and a fast switch, but communication between PCs and the DVR are fine when they work, it's just the first attempt usually requires a DVR reboot! Is this a 'return it to Maplin' or have I missed something? Many Thanks, Al PS Finally tracked down the manufacturer in China, thought I might find a firmware upgrade (no luck) - it's 'China Security & Surveillance Distribution Inc'. Will keep any eye on the site as there is a software download section, it just has nothing relating to this model (D3684HT)
