You need the VSPlayer for Mac from the hikvision website
-
I'm not sure if that still works but try
But first you need to change the videotype of the substream to mjpeg. And even then its like a diashow and no fluent stream.

Summertime is always from last sunday in march to last sunday in oktober
i dont know why dahua doesnt do this automatically...
-
does the camera support dynamic noise correction/reduction?
maybe the black image causes too much noise and the "motion" alarm is triggered.
firmware up to date?
-
just take a look at dahua or hikvision cameras. they have good quality for a good price
I would recommend a model with a sd card slot for local storage.
from hikvision you can find:
DS-2CD2542FWD-IW
http://www.hikvision.com/en/Products_accessries_760_i6144.html
or from dahua:
IPC-HFW1320S-W
http://www.dahuasecurity.com/products/ipc-hfw1320s-w-5631.html
Dont forget that the cameras need some power, so a power supply is needed.
-
you wrote in your first post that you was able to connect to the camera via the browser.
is maybe there some options where you can check the ip settings?
-
Maybe your camera is connected to the wifi but dont get any ip address from the main router. normally this happens when the camera has a static ip address to get configured with an app.
when you connect your camera to your main router take a look at the ip settings of the camera. the camera should be set to dhcp to get a ip from the router.
-
Please take a closer look to the name of the dvr. Because thats important to choose the correct firmware. Normally you find more on the bottom of the device.
If you have a
DS-7208HWI-SH
DS-7208HWI-SL
or if you have a
DS-7208HWI-E2
DS-7208HWI-E1
DS-7208HWI-E2/C
In the Release Notes of that Version they wrote about the compatibility with the new HikConnect service
ii. Newly support Hik-Connect(HC) function, support HC functions like playback, live view andalarm push. HC function is not enabled by default.
iii. Support HC domain name service.

If you have already a camera bought try it with powerline or wifi bridge like the other guys recommend to you. If not, Dahua itself has some Wifi Cameras...
Just go on the Product selector on the dahua website and choose WIFI:Yes
Then you will see some models
-
DHCP activated on the router ? DHCP-Pool not full?
-
Normally the Nas feature works good...
It's good that it runs now, somehow. But I really would like to know why it does record on the one server and not properly on the other one. If you want to spend some more time on it you can check maybe the log of FTP and NVR.
-
The only thing you can do is to mount another light sensor next to the camera and connect to the alarm in. Trigger the day night switch with the alarm in event and you are done. Look for a sensor where you can adjust...
-
when the recording stopps at 16:04.26 does the hdd led still blink?
what kind of recorder is that. can you watch and record at the same time? how are the settings of the recording channel?
-
thats true, there was some http api in the past to control the cameras but hikvision stopped to support it.
did you play a little with the sensitivity of day/night switch
the other thing is to change maybe the position of the camera that the sensor dont get to much light to stay in color mode.
-
can you try it on 192.168.0.111 with a different remote directory.
did you try also the NAS feature of the camera?
-
post a screenshot of the ftp settings. how dow you record? on motion or permanently?
maybe you need a special viewer for the files?
look herehttp://www.dahuasecurity.com/download_2.html
-
for this kind of project i recommend to look for a proper company to help you with that... also when it comes to support
-
Thats just bla bla...
Of course you dont have any warranty if you buy it on ebay, amazon or aliexpress. but a lot of people dont care about because the price is much better
Read this...
-
Like i said, the manual describes how you can do that with a schedule. Read the manual! You can set a time to switch to day and a time to switch to night mode. Problem solved!
-
I bought a lot of NVR from Aliexpress and updated them every time to the newest firmware. No Problems at all. But of course i dont want that you brick your device.
A short history of Hikvision. Its part of their worldwide success to sell these things through aliexpress because that was the fastest way to make money out of china. Because people like you and me could buy these devices instead of going to our local dealer which has to be a partner of hikvision first and put their fees on the price.
-
For 30$ you will not get satisfied with any kind of ip camera.
Im also not a fan of using wifi for security cameras. You can try powerline. It uses the power cables to transmitting the ethernet signal and they are quite cheap.
i have some good experience with dahua and hikvision. They have also models with built in Wifi. But you need to invest minimum 100 $ i think, especially for outdoor use.
Take a look at the IPC-HFW1120S-W from Dahua. You will find them for around 75$ on Aliexpress
-
Can you post picture how you configure the cameras, because the quality looks really bad even the 720P....
-
Hey Dany,
please give us some time to answer...
What Firmware Version of your Hikvision you are using?
Edit:
A quick look in the manual of the camera you will find on page 74 that you can setup an Schedule Trigger for the day and night switch. Take a look in the manual. If you have further questions dont hesitate to contact me. Im also from Germany so i can explain it in german if there some misunderstanding. Just write a PN.

If UPC in Romania are using the same company policy like in Germany and Switzerland it will not be possible for you to reach your network from outside again. Because they are using a technology called DS-Lite to save IPv4 addresses. That means that you dont have a real IPv4 address and thats why the port forwarding is not working. You get like a fake IPv4 address that you are still able to access IPv4 Services but the way backwards will not work. Im not sure if this is your real problem but in germany and switzerland we have these problems. Only way to solve is to buy a business account. Then you get a real IPv4 and the forwarding should work again. But they are much expensive as for private people...
Sometimes also a call at the support will help...

depending on you firmware there is somewhere in network settings of the dvr an option called "virtual host". activate it and you can access the cameras through the nvr on the other subnet. you see the address in the camera management
