    How to get HikVision camera working with non-HikVision NVR? [SOLVED]

    This is now solved, it appears that the "invalid username and password" error was a red herring. Despite the XVision NVR working with an older HikVision ANPR Camera, the NVR was giving the error with the newer HikVision ANPR camera. The user just had to change their NVR custom protocol settings...

    How to get HikVision camera working with non-HikVision NVR? [SOLVED]

    @Dan, no, the camera is not connected directly to the NVR, it's on a PoE switch. Here is the HikVision camera settings. This was before I added the second ONVIF user (admin/TestPassword) and also I had to change the second "digest" option to the other option which is something like...

    How to get HikVision camera working with non-HikVision NVR? [SOLVED]

    Thanks @Dan here is the XVision camera connect settings. I tried with the users existing username and password first, then I tried with the following: HikVision Camera actual user: admin/TestPassword AND HikVision Integration protocol user (of type Administrator): admin/TestPassword And then...

    How to get HikVision camera working with non-HikVision NVR? [SOLVED]

    I have always used one brand cameras/NVRs so have no experience with this and would appreciate advice. An XVision NVR was working fine with a single HikVision ANPR camera. The camera went faulty and I was asked to configure a new one and replace. But I did not know beforehand it was an XVision...

    HikVision event emails and Microsoft Modern Authentication

    Most online email systems nowadays (well Google and Microsoft anyway) now require you to configure 2 factor authentication on your account and then allow you to configure "app passwords" for things like this. So you go to your account and generate a unique password just for your NVR which you...

    iDS-2CD7A26G0/P-IZHSY - Workarounds for getting motorcycle plates/events anyone?

    I have various generations of these cameras and although I have not done any testing of motorbike plates the only things that help captures in general for me is: 1) Zooming the camera in further or even fully (of course you will lose surroundings). 2) Set a high exposure (I use 1/2000 but this...

    HTTP Command

    Are you sending the curl command on the NVR or the camera itself? I struggled getting ISAPI commands working via the NVR and always go direct to camera. But anyway, some older firmware you have to enable ISAPI integration, somewhere in settings under "HikVision Services" I think. Newer firmware...

    The camera names that I set always revert to the factory settings?

    I don't have the same NVR but usually you can set what you want shown on the OSD and that would normally work. But if your NVR is ignoring your OSD settings then the only way I know of changing the Camera/Channel name is on the NVR native interface (NOT the NVR web-based interface). On my NVRs...

    Where are you changing the camera name? On what device and in which setting page?

    Ubuntu 22.04.4 access to my NVR? [DS-7608NI-I2/8P]

    No native Hikvision Linux tools available as far as I know. If your are asking will you be able to see live views on Linux browsers - I can't really answer, in my experience live view from some cameras firmware work without a plugin on Linux and/or windows and some just don't (with or without a...

    iVMS-4200 Cannot see any remote playback on iVMS4200?

    Try going to the storage settings and somewhere there are a couple of "rebuild" options. Do a "rebuild all data" and it might sort your issue, I had something similar recently and that fixed it for me, all previous recordings visible again.

    Ideal specs for a Night-Vision IP Camera to get a clear night-time number-plate capture?

    I've only experience with HikVision ANPR cameras. Latest one I have is I think is this 2MP one: https://www.use-ip.co.uk/hikvision-ids-2cd7a26g0-p-izhsy.html we also have several equivalent older models in use. I'm a bit disappointed in the new one, it actually seems worse than the older models...

    One NVR suddenly no recordings! "no record file found"?

    Thanks again @JB1970 the rebuild all data did the trick exactly like you said. I did see the two rebuild options but wasn't sure what they did, never had any issues before now.

    One NVR suddenly no recordings! "no record file found"?

    I just randomly checked one of my NVRs playback function today and I am getting the "no record file found" error for all cameras. Panicking a bit as I don't know how long this has been not recording for. Always been fine in the past. All my other NVRs are working fine. iVMS-4200 v3.10.1.5...

    Hik-Connect Possible to give user access to "some" cameras only?

    @JB1970 sorry to waste your time - this was my mistake, a typo in one of the IPs - doh! I wasted so much time today... So just to clarify, both phone apps work, and both NVRs and cameras work with only port 8000

    Hik-Connect Possible to give user access to "some" cameras only?

    @JB1970 thanks, that's exactly what I did. e.g. say my external WAN IP is 1.2.3.4 and my NVR is 192.168.0.1 and my camera is 192.168.0.100 My existing (working) rule says forward 1.2.3.4 port 50100 to 192.168.0.1 port 8000 Adding a device 1.2.3.4 port 50100 to the apps works fine - I can see...

    Hik-Connect Possible to give user access to "some" cameras only?

    I was revisiting this issue/question as our site neighbor asked us about getting access to a couple of our cameras which overlook their land. So I thought I would experiment with one camera to start with by adding a CAMERA user, then opening up the camera port 8000. Do cameras even have a port...

    ANPR H8 updated to V5.8.20 captures now include OSD overlay! How to remove?

    I updated an H8 firmware ANPR camera (iDS-2CD7A26G0/P-IZHSY) to the latest firmware on the UK portal (V5.8.20 231024) But now I see the captured photos have the camera view OSD text overlay included on them (actually over the photo). This is bad for two reasons: 1) It's not necessary as you...

    ANPR tweaks to best get reliable reads?

    @Kyle I think I have managed to eliminate UNKNOWN reads in daytime. I just zoomed in fully (previously it was mostly zoomed in but not 100%) and also moved the blue crossing line from the middle of the view to a bit lower nearer the camera. However, it's failing to read most plates at night...

    ANPR tweaks to best get reliable reads?

    Thanks @Kyle I will have a look/read/play and report back with any findings. The camera is mounted securely on the face of a building, and no wind today anyway so I am sure it's not vibration/movement of the camera.
