Think I worked out what it was. It was google chrome as I've read google chrome no longer supports h.264.

Tried logging into my Avtech kpd674 remotely today from different locations, with differing results. From my brothers house, Anytime anywhere opened and asked me to install a player and when loaded worked fine and good quality with h.264, however when i logged in from elswhere a it wanted to run somthing to do with java and would then only play in mjpeg with poor quality video... What am i missing?? is it browser related?? once again any help will be greatly appreciated, cheers Dave

Hi, and thanks for your swift reply, you are right, with my isp (virgin) my ip is not statitic although it hardly ever changes, i have input all my details into the dns updater and time will tell wether that is working ok, for now i have no reason to think it isnt (fingers crossed). My question is really if i set the dvr ip to static, but that static ip is within the dhcp range of the router, is there any chance of a conflict or does the router automaticallly recognise static ip's and allocate other ip's accordingly, Many thanks in advace D

Let me first say hi as this is my first real post after my introduction, and as is the norm its cap in hand asking for advice I have just set up an Avtech kpd674 and all seems well so far, i have managed to set up remote viewing from Eagleeyes on my iphone and can log in without any problems. I have created a dyndns account and am using the ddns update server that comes built in. The queries i have are this... i have changed the default port from 80 to 98 and can log in without any problems but i am not sure if i have done the right thing as i have spent all night on google trying to work out if i can just use any port or wether i should be using a specific port and am struggling to find and answer, also the dhcp range on my router goes from .2 to .254 and i have set a static ip on my dvr of .14 but am not sure if i should adjust the range in the router to say .2 to .100 and then set the dvr on a static outside this range eg .101 because im not sure if i will get any conflicts if i leave it as is, as i was told this evening that all will be fine as ive set it to static my router wont assign anything else the same ip, but i have a nagging feeling of a memory to the contrary!!! it is now almost 4am and my head hurts with overload... i am a noob but i am slowly taking in bits of this networking stuff but really dont understand anywhere near enough to be happy that what i have done is right or wrong. Many thanks in advance for any pointers and advice to send me on the right track and i appologise if im not making any sense as my mum has always said "a little bit of information is a dangerous thing" Cheers once again D

Hi and hello from Manchester uk stumbled over the forum when searching google for help setting up my avtech kpd674, and ended up here numerous times and found it extremely helpful and informative. So Hi to all and many thanks in advance for any help given in reply to the questions i'll undoubtably be asking over the next few days/weeks/months or years
