Thanks for the update. I have a Reolink doorbell camera and have been meaning to add it to my Hik NVR. When i finally do, at least I know what functionality to expect lol

I recently purchased an old / 2nd hand Hikvision ANPR camera and after tweaking the settings got it working great (DS-2CD4A26FWD-IZS). I played around with the varied focal to ensure the plate was a good size. I then set the focus up in the day time and set it to manual so that it would not...

Probably unrelated and may not help but my Hik-Connect access on my iphone just stopped after making some minor tweaks on my NVR (changed encryption type and restarted NVR). LAN access was fine. I managed to get it working again with some tinkering. My NVR Just would not connect in the app like...

@JB1970 - Update is a happy ending! Port forwarding and app all updated and working spot on with new ports. Massive thanks again!

Fantastic! Thanks again - will finish off tinkering tonight and update

@JB1970 - I finally managed to change my default http, RTSP and server ports using the NVR interface directly (browser did not want to do it for some reason). I have another question if thats OK. What do i now need to change in my port forward / router settings now that I have changed the...

Thanks again! As you suggested, I have added a 2nd local connection instance as a great short term solution (to get the best of both worlds). Been meaning to replace my ISP router for a while so will bite the bullet and make sure it supports Loopback. Thanks again for the great expert advice!

Quick update - I successfully configured the DDNS section and Hik-connect app (and port forwarding) and it now gives me the option to change the image resolution in the playback timeline (clear or custom) - which is great! It also lets me have access to the remote configuration of the NVR (never...

Awesome - my project for tonight lol

quick update - just checked and my 7608NI NVR does not have the 'double stream' option. Maybe only 16 port NVR's have this (more processing power maybe).. I will have a crack at setting up DDNS access on Hik-Connect (been on the to do list for a while). Do you still get event notifications in...

Thanks all, I will have a play with the 'duel stream' option and also see if opening some ports helps. Will report back soon. Thanks again Dan

Thanks for the quick reply my quality button is greyed out and stuck on HD. Is this a port forwarding issue maybe?

Hi All, I have a question I have been meaning to post for some time. I have a few Hikvision POE cameras linked up to my i Series NVR (V4.40.016 build20200803). Unfortunately I don’t have access to fibre so my NVR is connected to the internet via ADSL , just means I have poor upload speeds...

Awesome - thanks again. Bitrate is the one that I know least about. Am having fun with the image settings plus adding my own exterior lighting. Your advice has massively helped on this!

That’s great info - has given me the confidence to go with 265! one more ask if that’s ok. Current camera settings I have are in the pic . Any changes you would recommend for best video quality (particularly at night)

Really helpful post as I am also playing with settings. Quick question - Do you prefer H264 over the other variants in terms of best image quality? Thanks again Dan

Good spot! I was about to try 005 on my K1!

V4.30.005 Is now available (see other thread)

Agreed - I am looking to switch to an I series NVR (from k series)

Update - still happening even though I added my own min and max boxes. I am going to try switching to H264 as an experiment, I worry 265 is to processor intensive and so causes this issue. Will let you know if that works. Failing that - will try an I series NVR rather than K. Thanks
