Qvis Viper NVR vs QNAP QVR Elite & API questions
woter posted a topic in IP/Megapixel Cameras and Software Solutions
Hi, Some time ago, I wrote this question and I've been kindly recommended the Qvis Viper PTZVIP-4-4MP-25X-V3 by @tomcctv. DTS Digital CCTV will supply it, however, they're recommending I purchase the Qvis Viper NVR (VIPER-NVR-4K2-4BB). My current setup is a Hanwha XNV-8081Z with a QNAP running QVR Elite. I have a number of issues that I understand will be resolved because most of the "smart" functionality is processed at the camera as opposed to the NVR doing the work. I understand the Viper is a re-branded TVT and I believe this particular camera is this one. QVR Elite supports ONVIF and some TVT cameras, however this particular model is not on QNAP's hardware compatibility list. I plan to hook it up to Home Assistant to provide Ring doorbell-esq functionality. Home Assistant has an existing add-on that supports cameras via ONVIF. Is the additional Viper NVR a legitimate requirement? I guess I can try without and buy it later. What additional functionality does this NVR give, or why would it be recommended? My current system records constantly and stores about 7 days on 1 stream. What size HDD would be required to retain this period? What functionality is lost between native Viper/TVT APIs and ONVIF. Does Qvis/Viper/TVT publish comprehensive publicly available RESTful APIs that I can utilise to write a Home Assistant add-on? Does Qvis/Viper/TVT regualry send out firmware updates? I notice this camera has been on the market for some time. Is a replacement due? Sorry for the long post, but my current Hanwha is very dumb, alerting on pixel change. No tracking or scanning. I was in a rush, didn't do my research thoroughly and got my pants pulled down by the supplier, so I can't afford to make the same mistake again. I'd be tremendously grateful for any further help and advise. Thank you in advance. W. -
I moved into a house a couple of years ago, it has a QVIS Viper NVR with 2 cameras connected but the previous owners didn't leave us the password. When I connect to monitor, I can see the two live feeds from the camera but can't click anything, all I get is the 'Start Wizard' screen which asks for a username and password. I have tried 1234, 123456, ad^min, and leaving it blank, none of these work so I'm guessing the password was changed. I have taken the unit apart and there is no factory reset button. I have also tried finding the J1, J2 jumpers but can't find these either. Does anybody have any other ideas or can anybody provide me with a reset code? I will try to take a pic of the reset password screen. Thanks in advance!!!

HI My aunt purchased a QVIS DVR Viper in 2021 and someone installed it. She's in her 70s and she cannot remember her admin password or who installed it. She wants to continue using the unit and get access to footage because she thinks someone stole her shoe bag outside of the house. I said I would have a look to see what I could do but there is no reset password option. There is only a dynamic password option?? I do not think QVIS exists anymore either. Is there anyone that can help with the dynamic password please? I have included a screenshot. Thanks
