    NIGHTOWL X APP FOR PC

    I figured it out with help from Nightowls site chat. You right click on the Nightowl X icon and click properties. Then in the compatibility tab check the "RUN AS ADMINISTRATOR" BOX. Click apply and exit properties. Double click on the Nightowl icon and it will work. Problem solved.

    NIGHTOWL X APP FOR PC

    I have a 3 mp 8 camera nightowl system. The android app for my phone works great but the app for PC works after downloading and opening,but has a black screen after reopening. Nightowl support says to run as administrator. App will only open with the "OPEN" command not run as admin. Anyone have the same problem? This is a nightowl issue but tech support has people with accents that I can hardly understand.
  3. Hi People, I am using NVSIP on a PC via Internet Explorer to view my remote cams. Everthing connects OK but when I try to use the playback feature, Internet Explorer shows an error box saying " Internet Explorer has stopped working" A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available. It's a generic message that I've seen many times with IE. Never with Firefox. This only happens when using Playback not Live View. Anyone have any idea whats happening?
  4. I use NVSIP via IE to view my DVR cameras. After logging in the cameras come up but freeze at the same time. Eventually after some time they will advance but never to the correct time which makes live viewing impossible. When trying to play back after receiving an email alarm alert,IE will crash every time so playback viewing is not possible. Anyone else have this issue or know a fix? Dan
  5. Greetings to all. New user here name of Dan. I recently bought a generic h264 DVR 16 camera system. It came without a hard drive but I had a friends Lorex which blew the ethernet port electronics and couldn't get online any longer. I removed the hard drive(500 gb) and put it into the h264. It's made by HUNGKA a Chinese co. based upon the user manual where there are a lot of mispelled words. I downloaded NVSIP to my cell phone,scanned the barcode and videos came right up. Next I downloaded their CMS program to my laptop but whenever I try to add the Device it tells me that the serial # is invalid. I've tried several different CMS programs with the same result. The serial # is displayed everywhere on the DVR screen and the barcode. Can't understand why it worked on the phone but not the laptop. tried using the IP address and a LAN search but nothing ever shows up. Almost like it's offline but it says it is. It is connected with an ethernet cable into the same modem as the laptop. Both ethernet connected. I even disconnected the e cable from the laptop and went wireless with the same results. I am at a loss here.It has to be the correct serial # because it works on the phone but the CMS programs keep saying "INVALID SERIAL NUMBER" Has anyone out there any knowledge to fix this? Dan
