Interesting! Can I ask you whether you also connect to it from a smart phone with iVMS-4500?
Or in other words: does iVMS-4200 v2 offer access to iVMS-4500?
I have iVMS 4200 v3 working. I set it up about 2 months ago and I may not remember everything. But my setup is as follows:
I use 2 computers, one for recording and one for viewing. This is not necessary - I only do that because the recording pc is located remotely and the viewing pc is connected via wireless.
On the recording PC I installed the storage server software of the iVMS 4200. On the viewing pc I installed the client software of the iVMS-4200. For configuration, on the client PC, I added the cameras, added the remote storage server, and setup a recoding schedule.
On the recording PC the storage application (NvrStorageServer) is run (it does not have any user interface - it is controlled via the client). On the viewing pc, the iVMS-4200 client is run - and used to set up everything and view live cameras as well as playback video.
I like the software very much.
I followed an instruction I found on the web - but I can't remember where I found it. Note: all of the software was located within the iVMS-4200 v2.
