Thanks Dan, Basically we need Variable focus for our use case. Basically we stream a barn owl box to youtube 24/7. We have one camera external to the box that has a perch near it. Most of the time the camera is focused on the box itself about 5 meters away. But, when a Barn Owl lands on the...

Looking for a camera. Ideally Hikvision as that fits in with my existing NVR and cameras but happy to use anything that'll speak to my NVR. Having RTMP protocol would be a bonus, but not essential. It need to be auto focus and have a built in microphone. Around 2.8 but a motorised would do...

I find the firmware for Hikvision so confusing. I have the DS-7716NXI-I4 / 16P/S (c) but this firmware gives an error 0x05242887?? I am assuming incompatible. Any ideas what the correct firmware is?

OK, and Stream Encryption was the last missing piece. Many thanks indeed Kyle, that's really appreciated :)

Thanks for that link. That's helped but not solved :D I hadn't realised that all my cameras are now running H.265. I am sure they were on H.264 and they certainly worked with RSTP so must have been. I've changed one of them to H.264 and it is showing.. something now... but still not quite...

Nope. Originally it was but I changed it for testing. It's just upper/lower alpha numeric. Nothing complicated. If I set and incorrect password I get prompted to correct it so it appears to be authenticating. I am pretty sure it's connecting correctly but just not showing anything. This is...

Hi All, I have a DS-7716NXI-I4 with firmware V4.61.067 build 220928 On my previous NVR (A K series 7616) I could use the following to access RTSP streams of cameras: rtsp://myusername:mypassword@172.16.20.15:554/Streaming/Channels/1501/ This would show the main stream of camera 15. The...

Indeed.. I was beginning to think it was faulty and I'd have to RMA it.

A little more testing. I tried it with a DS-2CD2385G1-I I had as a spare and it wasn't working on that either. Nothing in the logs to show any kind of detection working. No rules showing at all on any views. Decided to just reset. It took a little while to reset the NVR and the camera but it...

Yes they were both DS-2CD2xx3G0's. All the others are AcuSense cameras :) I will try a hard reset. I can't help but think the backend engine just isn't working right. Thanks for your help.

I've tried it on two different cameras. Neither work. Thinking I may try a full NVR reset :\

Yes I have. I have set it to smallest and largest possible to ensure the trigger. Firmware was updated to: V4.61.067 build 220928 I've also tried moving the engine to Facial.. waiting for it to switch to working, then rebooted the NVR. Switched it back to Perimeter and then waited for it to...

Latest firmware didn't solve the issue. I'm at a loss.

Just as a test, I also tried it with a DS-2CD2443G0-IW. Same as before, set to AI, set to Substream. Setup Intrusion. Nothing triggers. The NVR is obviously not doing the processing. Oh and in case anyone was thinking it.. Engine Configuration is set to Perimeter Protection and shows "Working"...

Hey All, I've got a DS-7716NXI-I4 / 16P/S NVR (Firmware V4.40.810 build 210324) that I am trying to use with an older DS-2CD2343G0-I camera. As the NVR is AcuSense and the camera is not, I have set the "Enable AI by Device" feature to pass smart event processing to the NVR. As the camera is...
