hi anyone having issues with connecting SMB server for recording, i hope this will help you
i have my SMB server running on ZTE f660 router (router supports to run SMB (samba) server with USB stick plugged in), initially i was unable to add this SMB server as NET HDD.. but then i have formatted USB stick in NFTS format and then i successes fully managed to add NET HDD in to my HKVision camera..
Steps
1. Add USB stick in NTFS format
2. Execute/activate SMB server on my router
3. Add NET HDD in HKvison configuration page (on browser)
serevr: ip of your SMB server (mine 192.168.1.1)
path: \filepath
mounting type: SMB/CIFS
user/pass and then test
and do not forget to save the setiings
if this is ok then you find the added HDD in the storage tab
then just select your drive and then format..
done....
