    K1(D) NVRs - Return of the fans

    I spoke to a supplier this morning regarding a back order on DS-7604NXI-K1/4P(D) NVRs. The single HDD models of these NVRs were supplied without the 40mm case fan. I've been told that due to a higher than expected number of failures, they are opening all units on arrival and retrofitting the...

    Hik-Connect New Hik-Connect 6.10.x - Not an improvement

    I updated Hik-Connect the other day from 6.9.880 to 6.10.0. It seems a step backwards as things have been moved around and changed. 6.9.880 - Clicking 'Me' you could log out/log in, see the version etc. 6.10.0 there's no version and no log out. To find the version, from 'Me' you have to go...

    New Firmware [finally] - G3 ColorVu (H13 U platform) 5.8.13_250715 [removed]

    There's finally some new firmware for the G3 ColorVu cameras. A new build of 5.8.10 came out some time ago for the 8MP models (H13) but now there's 5.8.13_250715 available on the download site for the 4MP models (H13U). Gotta hope it fixes the garbled audio when Environmental Noise Filter is...

    Hik-Connect 6.8.400.20250317.1 (latest version at time of writing) I just noticed yesterday that pinch to zoom no longer works in landscape mode for me since updating my phone to iOS 18.4. Now only the zoom icon works which only gives you a single zoom level. You can pinch to zoom when the...

    G3 ColorVu Cameras - First Impressions/Review

    I've finally got my hands on a couple of the new ColorVu 3.0 cameras to try out. These are the DS-2CD2xx7G3 models and I guess the next step on from the Hybrid light models (DS-2CD23xx7G2H). They (Hikvision) have dropped the 'H' for Hybrid in the model code but the functionality is the same...

    I just noticed that new firmware has been released for the KV6113WPE1(c). I've not seen any release notes but the version has jumped from 2.2.78 to 3.7.0 so I'd guess there are some major changes? It's available on both the UK and Global Hikvision update search pages. Edit: I updated mine...

    I had a firmware update pop up on the local UI of a DS-7616NI-K2/16P. It's an old one and these are end of life. As usual where you would get this firmware is unknown. If you search that model: UK Product Page/Firmware Search - no result for NVR Global Product Page/Firmware Search -...

    Hik-Connect Hik-Connect 6.2.51 - Seems to fix slow loading playback timeline

    Hik-Connect 6.2.51 has been released in the last 24 hours. 'Bug fix' is all that's detailed for the release on the iOS App Store. It does seem (for me) to have resolved or at least massively improved the loading of the timeline when selecting playback. Previously this could take upward of 20...
