Hi friends, I have a KPD677ZLA-B, with 1013-1004-1008-1004, I have tried to upgrade both files of the first post but it get me a checksum error, then the DVR restarts. I think that it need upgrade for the B circuit revision. If someone knows the link of any new update please post it here. Thanks in advance.

Dear friends, I have sell the previous 4ch DVR that i was have on my installation, it was the Avtech KPD-674. I was really satisfied with this dvr, but now i have update my installation and i will have 3 maybe 4 new camera. So i need you help, opinion, as i have decide to buy one of these 8Ch DVR models ; A) AVTECH KPD-677 B) AVTECH AVC796A C) AVTECH MDR 796 D) EVER FOCUS ECOR264-8F2 I was ready to purchase the KPD-677 but i have read that the hardware is not so good as the 4ch version model, and that makes me afraid to dont spend my money for a model that is not so good. The KPD seems to be the same with the AVC but the hardware -from KPD to AVC- as i read have some changes (memory, chipset) That is correct ? Im think more to buy the AVTECH AVC796A, but one of suppliers told me that the MDR 796 is similar to AVC796. Is it true?, Witch one of two models is better? Also he told me about the EVER FOCUS ECOR264-8F2, The value seems good, but i dont know if this model is good as i never hear before about this vendor. Im one step before purchase the AVC796A, so please advice, your help will highly appreciated. " title="Applause" /> Also if you have any other 8CH model, to suggest, please feel free. Thanks in advance and sorry for the long post.

Hello, First of all I would like to thanks for this wonderful forum! I have found it today while I was using google, trying to find a solution for my problem… I have a KPD-674(ZL), everything was working fine, until i have decided to format my computers. I have 3 pc’s with win XP, The problem is with web interface, I cannot using the playback, the screen staying black, and im getting the message “channel x : playback failed” Im using ie .8 on 2 pc’s and ie 6 on the third. The strange thing is that the playback is working on the 2 pc’s (ie .8 & ie 6) but not on the third pc (ie 8 ) That is very strange because the two pc’s have the same operating system (winxp sp3 ie 8 ) how is possible to work in the first and not in the other ? I have updated the dvr firmware today with KPD674_1042.rar (thanks roula for this) but still I have the same problem. I have tried everything, (running ie 8 in administrator mode, updating the coders, install vlc, but still can’t make it working) Also did somebody can tell me what it means the ZL after my dvr KPD674 model?, Can i use the firmware updates for the A models? The original firmware version was : 1039D-1014D-1017D-1016D now is : 1042-1014-1018-1017, what was the D, that it’s “gone” ? Also before one week I have noticed that the playback wasn’t works on ie 9 in windows 7 any solution for this ? (preview mode is ok) untill now and after the update the dvr is working well, from the video viewer I can playback saved files. But not on ie. Thanks in advance and sorry for my big post.
