Ah okay, that makes sense . Could you try do check DHCP box using the TV interface and change the internal IP address in your settings of the modem. My modem did not accept the static IP of 192.168.1.188 (or any other static IP done by a device) of the NVR for forwarding ports. Only when I changed the network settings to DHCP I was able to use the vMeye app outside my home.

I tested with canyouseeme website all ports are working This product is from China country Strange, could you change port 80 to 90 from your NVR instead of your camera and forward port 90? So you can try External_IP:90? Furthermore, you need External_IP:HTTP_port or External_IP:HTTPS_port to access the web interface of your nvr. So in your case you need>>> External_IP:4433 for HTTPS For using mEye/vMeye or an other mobile app to watch your cameras you need port 5053 (so Device port + 3).

when I check the DHCP box the Ip address will be deactivated I can't give ip address <<"you have to forward at least the following ports 80, 5050,5051,5052,5053">>as you can see I'm already configured the port 5050 and Added it to the port forwarding in my router bytheway I enabled DHCP box but when I click save show me message error Failed look this screenshot Could you look if port 5050 is open at the following site: http://www.canyouseeme.org/ Besides 5050, you have to open 5051, 5052 and 5053 for the mini nvr. Could you show me where you bought your nvr, since the GUI is diffent compared to mine.

Check DHCP box in your last screen about the network settings and configure the ports again with your new internal IP. Probably, you have to forward at least the following ports 80, 5050,5051,5052,5053. To access the web interface of your camera you have to put in the following >>>External_IP:80.

Without Onvif, those cameras are sadly all useless on the mini nvr. You should then use Ispy on our computer for recording those cameras, but the power consumption of your pc is far more compared to the mini nvr. If you don't care about the Frames per second of your cameras you can install IP cam viewer pro on your Android/Apple device, this app can record/take a lot of sreenshots from the several cameras. Well mostly the FPS will drop to 1~3 FPS (since the app makes a lot of screenshots... making your Android device going crazy when you are in file explorer browsing in those maps) compared to mini NVR or Ispy, which are more functional to search a specific recording. When you only use your cameras for 'watch' purposes you can also install IP cam viewer, I will include a screenshot (using the substream of each IP camera) taken from my android phone. Please notice, that you have to configure all the cameras separately for the IP cam viewer app, since the NVR is not recognized by the app. If you only use cameras atached to your NVR you can use vMeye or an equivalent app. So left above is Vcatch > This camera is great, since the depth of field is very wide compared to the other IP cameras I have. Other cameras state that they have 3.6mm lens, so this camera should be around 3~3.2mm I think. My camera is wired, but I don't know if the wireless camera has the same good quality. Be aware that in low light conditions all the cameras have grainy picture quality. Right above is Dlink 932L> The mini nvr does not record this camera, but I only use this camera for viewing purposes using the app and for motion detection sending me an email. I have attached a Fish-eye lens to the camera so the field of depth has increased despite the loss in sharpness of the picture. See the dlink forum (930L or 932L subsection) for more pictures. But this camera is great for using as a baby phone, since this camera has a microphone on board . Use Tinycam pro on Android and you can get a warning when the sound is above a set limit. Left below: No name wireless IP camera, depth of field is narrower, image quality is in my opinion lower than the Vcatch. Right below: Sunvison wireless camera, depth of field is the same as the camera of left below. I had 2*932L and 3*930L cameras, but the IP cameras have a way sharper image. Further, the infrared of the cameras are way better than the Dlink. Well 30 led vs 6 led is not a fair comparison... But the configuration of the DLink (email and ftp) are more easier. I will delete the screenshot after 7 days. All the onvif cameras are bought from (to avoid spam PM me for the shop). I don't know how a Hikvision would perform, but the price was 40 dollar higher than the Vcatch at that time (6 month ago). Greetings from the Netherlands . Second picture is taken from the Vcatch, showing a little criminal (aka nephew) with the ipad in his hands...

Haha , I'm glad that I could help you. I have my NVR connected to 17 inch LCD screen using a VGA cable (old-fashioned way), maybe the resolution of your TV messed up the interface. The NVR is great to record your onvif cameras. However, it would be even better when the nvr could support Mjpeg so you could record your older 'non onvif > nonvif' cameras (wishful dreaming ). An other change I would make is to have at least 3 usb ports, one for the HDD, one for a mouse and the last one for a wifi adapter (well using a cable is always better for this sort stuff). I gave up on the web interface after one week (ActiveX ... ), besides that I would prefer to use a mobile APP to watch your cameras (>> forward the specific ports in your modem and you can watch your cameras from everywhere ). Be aware that it would be recommendable to look at your NVR at least one day in a week to see if everything is working fine > look if the red 'record' picture is present.

Uhhh some ip cameras have the option to send you a e-mail after motion has been detected. The motion detection on the nvr itself is pretty useless.. Since the the sensitivity is still too high (in my experience) ... Just try the built in motion detection of the ip camera. When an email has been send at 06.34 pm, you should then know that you have to look at the recordings St around 6.34 pm. Besides having a camera system, you should have an alarm system (calling your neighbour or on your mobile phone when the alarm has been triggered) when protecting your home, well it's usefull for burglars since you are then asleep. Use then the time that the alarm has called you, when looking in the cctv system. When you are away on vacation ask you neighbour to watch over your home. Otherwise buy a dlink camera to use it for sending a mail when motion has been detected. Since the dlink camera motion detection does work. A camera system alone is not helping to protect your home, it's only have a deterring effect. Tldr: use the built-in motion detection of the ip camera or buy a dlink camera only for the motion detection as a support for the nvr.

If you select to record 24 hours, it will only keep the last 24 hours of your recordings. This function isn't very usefull in my opinion since having more hours is most of the time better? Maybe due to legislation some people are limited to max 24 hours recording... and this function will help to comply to that. It is better to use a 'so big as possible hdd' since you can record many 'small videos' due to motion recording. When you select the 'replace/overwrite' in the settings, the NVR will overwrite the oldest file when the HDD is full. Use the tool from urcctvstore as a guideline for selecting a hard drive when you want to record X minutes/hours/days recording: http://www.urcctvstore.com/Computational_tools.html. Using that tool 2TB will record around 216 hours of video (select Calculation of video time in the tool). Hi unix1992 !!! where is in the settings the selection of "record 24 hours" or "replace/overwrite" for the HDD ???? I don't find them in the TV HDMI interface... Thanks in advance Bruno Uhhh in the settings menu? Do you have the following interface as shown in the picture? - Settings > Record Replace > set to replace > see picture above the QR sign - Record Time (hour) > Enable it and set it to 24 or any other number hours It doesn't matter which number you set at the 'record time hour', just put 900 hours in it. The NVR will still overwrite the old files. Fore example: When the HDD (120GB) is full after 20 hours of recording the NVR will replace the old file, so effectively you will only record the last 20 hours. Furthermore: Motion detection on the NVR is worthless (well only 1 of the four cameras supports is at my place), sensitivity is still too high even at the lowest level... So as others already mentioned despite the motion detection it is recording continuous. For adding a camera try the following: If selecting 'search' or auatomatic did not work, try to add the camera manually. Right mouse click > Add camera > Manual Select Channel X (1 to 8, which is empty) Protocol: Onvif first, i8 or i11 (try Onvif first, after that the other 2 options) Username: As specified in the IP camera Password: See above Look up the internal IP Address Port: Look for the media port or the HTTP port specified in your IP camera (or try the mobile port or RTSP port) Sometimes you have to log in your IP camera to set the videostream manually to H264 or to set the video size at 1280x720p. Just try every setting (ports) as configured in your IP camera. I have 5 different 'china' brands of no name IP camera (Vcatch, sunvision *2, escam, no brand *2 (different) ) and they all work/record on the NVR. Well the motion detection is worthless despite 'working' only on 1 camera. Only 2 of the 5 cameras were automatically found by the NVR, the others were put manually in the NVR.

According to port forwarding, I was trying to forward ports from 5050 to 5054 but it doesn't any effect. Still no video. According to motion detection when I click "Save" and leave "motion detection" section and back, all settings are set to default. I'm using motion detection on my camera but it has only 9 big fields of detection. For future references: - Settings - Network - Network settings - Check DHCP box - Press Apply and OK Then you have to do the same steps in order to see the current IP of the NVR: 192.168.1.XX Log in to your router and forward the following ports, check if you have to tick a box to activate the port forwarding rule: Remote Port (as shown in the network settings): default is 5050 Other port: 5051, 5052 and 5053 HTTP port: 80 Otherwise, if you changed the default ports: Remote Port: Port number Other Ports: Port number+1, +2, +3 HTTP Port: Port number Check the ports on http://www.canyouseeme.org/ to look if it is properly forwarded. Download Vmeye on Android - Add Device DVR1: - Put in Random name - First Internal IP Address - Port number 5053 - Username: admin - Password: Leave it blank - Add Device DVR2: - Put in Random name external - Put your external IP address (what is my ip address on google) - Port number 5053 - Username: admin - Password: Leave it blank Using a static IP done by the device can give an error when forwarding ports on some routers/modems.
