The NVR is a DS-7604NI-K1-4P, and I think the firmware is the latest - v3.4.90. I also think the cameras are on the latest version, although it's a pain to find out without connecting directly to them. I've played around with this more, and I have to say it's very frustrating, the motion...

Any hints on getting motion detection to work effectively? I've got an NVR (4 port K series) with 2 cameras. I've tried to set up motion detection, and initially got a continuous stream of events, which appear to be leaves on a bush... I've backed the sensitivity way down, and now I'm not...

Hi, Has anyone got the macOS web plugin to work? I did have it working, but no longer. I changed the IP address of the NVR, and also upgraded the firmware, and no joy now. It is fine with iVMS. The versions I'm using are: macOS: 10.12.3 Safari: 10.0.3 NVR: Hikvision DS-7604NI-K1 / 4P firmware...

Is there any way to update the camera firmware (or even check if it is current) when using it with an embedded/plug&play NVR? The DS-7604NI-K1-4P doesn't appear to support the virtual host functionality, and the cameras are in a separate private subnet, so not accessible from the rest of the...

Hi Cardoso, Unfortunately, the current firmware doesn't have tenet at all (although it does have ssh, which is an improvement). But... once logged in, there is no access to either poweroff or reboot. Very frustrating! I'm not sure quite what they're thinking, why removing poweroff would be a...

OK, I did finally manage to log in over ssh - using root rather than admin for the login name (with the admin password). But... no way to shut down from the command line! It seems that the newer firmware is very restricted, and doesn't have the poweroff command. So the problem still remains, any...

The manual is clear that the NVR should be cleanly shut down before switching off, but there's no way I can see to do this without an attached monitor - which I don't have. All of the remote access methods have no option for shutdown. I did find an option to switch on ssh access, which would be...
