I don't trust *any* camera software, as almost all of it is proprietary garbage from China. I shouldn't *have* to trust them. I chose this hardware for the sensor quality, and feature set - all of which is entirely independent of the software. I also don't provide the cameras internet access...

That is absolutely not the case. You're either referring to an entirely irrelevant set of context/features, or you are mistaken.

I've tried the web interface, I've tried third party tools utilizing ISAPI, and I've tried ISAPI PUT commands directly via curl. All of these *should* work on their own, certainly the last two. They aren't doing anything different than the Hikvision app itself would be doing. I absolutely...

I've got two or three LSU models of this camera here. The ones I am actively using are on firmware V5.7.3 build 220112, as I want the LED light linkage feature which is later removed from these cameras (for absolutely no good reason that anyone is publicly aware of). I can't get two way audio...

No, I wasn't able to find a solution. No one reached out to me here with any solutions, so I'm probably just going to avoid Hikvision products in the future, as they do not perform as advertised. Best of luck to you!

I'm not really interested in bug fixes for problems I'm not experiencing. I just want LED linkage and 2 way audio. If I find that the volume is too unsatisfactory for me to use, I can consider updating at that point later for a specific camera or two, based on the end use case. But I know...

That doesn't address my concern with updating the firmware in regards to LED linkage. Does this firmware support this feature? As stated originally, I don't want to update and be unable to downgrade to a working state for these features.

Hello, I have approximately 4 2387G2 Hikvision models which I am in the process of installing. Unfortunately, it appears as if the two way audio functionality is no longer working on my LSU variants. I'm attempting to figure out why, and was hoping I could get some help in troubleshooting...

I've got some old Dahua IPC-HDW4631C-A 's, and 3 of them stopped working within about a week or so's time. They are originally gray market cameras, and are a good 5 or so years old at this point. Up until failure (some months back at this point), they've worked as well as expected. The odd...

I compared two very similar models in their functionality for this given task. As I understand it, the two warm LEDs on the LSU model cannot be set to turn on from events per JB1970's comment above, so I'm not sure what better comparison could be made. If I downgrade the firmware of my LSU to...

I just got an LSU/SL model in, and there are two differences that I wasn't aware of (or perhaps forgot): 1. The LSU/SL has a cool white LED as opposed to the warm white from the LU - I'd put ballpark figures of the LSU/SL to be somewhere around 6500k, and the LU around 4000k in color...

I figured as much. Alright, well I guess I'll probably end up getting LSU models in the future, then. I can get them at the same price as I can get the official Hikvision LU's, and the way I see it I may as well get the one with more features which isn't firmware bound and has a few extra...

Great, that sounds like it'll work. Alright, final question for the moment - Can I trigger events from a network device that ISN'T the camera, such as a self hosted software NVR using some protocol? Or do all events have to be triggered from the camera itself? ___ In response to your edit, I...

Excellent! I see, thanks for letting me know. That would be slightly problematic. Do different types of detection all work together and play nicely?

Yes, that's what the video does. Is there a limit on the duration that you can set the LED to trigger for? If a second event occurs, does it reset the timer of the LED light's duration?

I believe this video demonstrates it working on the LSU/SL models? Unless I'm missing something, that is. I can live with a few hours near dusk and dawn where the LEDs are turning on unnecessarily. I just can't live with zero illumination OR constant white light illumination. Can events...

Thank you so much for the reply! Personally, I don't want strobe lights to activate, and I just want white lights to provide better clarity/lighting for video purposes. So, just to be crystal clear, the LSU/SL model would be adding additional strobe lights and those would be unused by my...
