    MacOS Vsplayer for Mac. White band?

    Anyone a user of Vsplayer on the Mac? I used it on my older intel mac, and more recently an apple silicon Mac, and when opening the app, between the box on the left side that contains the clips you are looking, and the actual video playback box on the right, is a white band about 3cm in size...

    POE distance problems?

    How come the PTZ and the ANPR are on injectors, do they need more power then the NVR can provide? Can we confirm what equipment you have, NVR model, what is connected to the NVR for ethernet and power and what is stand alone, do you have a poe switch anywhere providing other cameras power etc...

    POE distance problems?

    Reading up about the extended long range Poe mode, it seems to limit the data speed of the connection when active to 10Mbps so I wonder if it’s using more pins to provide the power to the camera hence less speed, and it’s connecting on pins that are terminated better than others would be a pita...

    Blurry, interference-type image. Are these cameras on the way out?

    That model is definitely an analogue tvi camera. Do you know if you have a separate power supply for the cameras somewhere, either something like a white box on the wall where the power part of the cable will go to or a couple of plug in power supplies that split the power to a group of cameras...

    Standard or passthrough RJ45s, crimpers etc - whats your preference?

    I bought some Excel Fast Plugs that got delivered today - I dont have the pass through type crimper yet, just a normal one, so resigned to snipping the ends off for this test. Using Ultima Solid LSZH Cat5e, the Excel easy passthrough RJ45s crimped on no problem, was much easier to verify the...

    Upgrading my 7 year old CCTV?

    Hikvision is good. Look for cameras with acusense as that helps filter out false alarms. I am a Mac user and am getting on ok with the m series nvr. Colorvu 24x7 colour cameras are popular right now. A height of 6m isn‘t going to get you a lot of detail, great for an overview of the scene but...

    Hik-Connect Hik Connect - iPhone app vs iPad app - no acusense 'filters' on iPad?

    looks like it maybe because the iPad app (at least in my case) is always in landscape mode no matter what my screen lock is set to, if you do the same on the iPhone, the filters are not visible there, so probably by design in the app? Portrait you see the filters, landscape they go for more...

    Tried to setup Hik Connect today after using direct DDNS connection for years. The NVR says its registration status is 'Online', so I scan in the QR code on the screen of the NVR with Hik Connect on my phone, and get this error :( I have made up a verification code in the NVR settings, cant...

    Firmware M Series Firmware 4.63.005 - VCA Search Bug [SOLVED - menu change]

    I must admit I wasn't aware of the "save camera VCA data" option, in the past, because I had so few ip cams, I was reliant on motion detection, which was setup full screen, and used to smart search that. As a test, I have one camera setup with intrusion detection running on the whole scene...
