Mini nvr questions

[kubras 0]

Hi, I have got a NVR ESCAM N6200-8E. Motion detection did not work. I did update and now NVR does not work. What should I do? I tried to repair via telnet, usb but it is still the same.

[Kogashuko 0]

Any word as to where to get the 8ch firmware for the Escam. I spoke to mike over the weekend by PM but have not yet gotten anything... maybe in my spam box?

 

Also managed to get the individual Escam cameras for forward their stream and substream to IP camera viewer on android. I was able to do this through port forwarding to my surveillance subnet.

 

Update,

 

Found it in my spam box along with an apology for the delay. Thanks Mike!

I have to say you all have customer service much better than most larger companies!

 

Still no dice on the motion record. It says setting saved successfully but when I go back into the motion sensor panel it is reset again. I also cant get the alarm output function on the camera to trigger record. I guess I will be going with a different NVR...

I can play them with VLC without any problems. Try VLC for windows.

I've tried several, including VLC for windows. Always lock the player.

 

Share a sample of download recording (avi) and will see what's up.

 

I think it was a problem with my vlc because I tested on another machine and it worked.

Mike, if you want to create polish translation let me know. I see now only english and chinesse interface version. My brother ordered here http://www.aliexpress.com/item/8CH-Onvif-Full-HD-1080P-48V-Real-PoE-NVR-All-in-one-Network-Video-Recorder-for/1995091290.htm. Will this update also be available for this nvr?

Hi All,

I have just updated (thanks to Mike) to the last available firmware for my miniNVR 8ch.

I can take good live video from my 4 IPcam (Maygion v.3 branded DBPower) and record them on a local HDD (WD Mybook) BUT there is no way to have motion detection.

I believe that Motion detection is working for this miniNVR only if the IPCam can do it itself and sends alarm though ONVIF protocol ...

Another error in specification is that it would be possible to record on network disks... not possible at all.

 

Ciao, Bruno

4CH Mini NVR, 8CH Mini NVR, 4CH POE NVR, 8CH POE NVR, all have different update files, please make sure you are updating the correct one.

 

If your NVR is not with customized software. no problem to update.

We will uploading the latest 20141030 firmware, ActiveX is not needed any more, You can also run on Firefox, Google Chrome etc.

but sorry Mac system still can not work directly.

 

please be noted that if your NVR firmware is before 20140417, you can not update to the new version 20141030 directly. You will need to update to 20140417 then another update to 20141030.

 

If your NVR is with version 20140417, OK no problem to update to 20141030.

 

Please also understand that every update you will need to configure everything again. If you are cool with your current version, then just let it be. We are not responsible if your device is bricked........lol...

Let me explain the Motion Detection Thing,

 

This NVR support Standard Onvif Protocol, if your IP camera is using standard Onvif Protocol (Not Modified Onvif), then the motion detection can work properly.

 

Many IP camera manufacturer modified their Onvif Protocol to limit the buyers to buy the recording devices from them. If not the Motion Detection recording and alarm might not work. You may ask your camera sellers if their cameras are standard Onvif (Anyway I believe most of them don't really know about the standard Onvif things, they only know their IP camera is an Onvif one).

 

Then we created private protocols with many IP camera manufacturers. After you update the devices with the correct private protocols then the motion detection can work. While there are still many IP camera manufacturer don't agree to have private protocols with our NVR, so Motion detection won't work with their Cameras, like the NVSIP, Hikvision etc. (Dahua, D-Link and some others have no problem on Motion detection after protocol update)

 

So you need to always ask your Camera Seller and NVR Seller about this issue before making that order.

Hi Mike,

thx

Hi sorry we don't have a change log available (only one in last year and it is in Chinese .lol). Problem is that Chinese R&D guys are not good at English and it takes time for the marketing department to have them translated but we really don't have enough time to do that and our R&D just talked to us which part is slightly changed. Maybe there will be one in PDF format in the near future.

Hello everyone.

 

I figured I'd ask to make sure but the ESCAM K108 branded NVR, even though it's on v4.0 [20140417], is NOT compatible with these latest firmware posted today?

I don't want to end up with a bricked device if possible. lol

 

Thanks for any input.

That's true, you don't need to update if you are afraid of brick it. The biggest bug of 20140417 is that you can not change IP address through IE or PC Software. You can change it through NVR directly anyway.

 

Hi Szymon, what about your side? did you make it work?

[orsodimare 0]

Upgraded, reconfigured everything, and it seems to work fine....

I have tested the new web IF with Safari on Macosx and it works after installing the last Flash version.

I'll try recording and motion detection but after Mike statements I don't expect any change/ improvement.

 

To have it working through Safari is anyway a big leap for any Mac user !!

BTW on the mac it doesn't work with FF...

Thanks. Bruno

[Szymon_Zy 0]

Hi Szymon, what about your side? did you make it work?

 

Not yet. Too much work, will do it at midnight (GMT+1) and report.

[orsodimare 0]

I correct myself:

 

with FF under Macosx, after the login mask, looks for http://192.168.1.188/images/6a.png that doesn't exist, BUT if I click a couple of "go back", it loads the flash plugin and starts..

 

Sounds magic !
