Hikvision IVMS 4200 Stream Media Server

Recommended Posts

Hi Guys!

 

Been reading the manual about the IVMS 4200 Stream Media Server but it seems that the information is incomplete, specially on how to connect to the Stream Media Server once it is established.

 

According to the manual, Stream Media Server will reduce the Load on the DVR if there are multiple users who will want to view the Cameras.

 

My question now is, once the Stream Media Server is configured and setup, How are these users going to connect to the Stream Media Server? Is it by browser? or by another application?

 

Can somebody share some information,

 

Big Thanks!

Hi ytsejam_cst.

 

My experience with Stream Media Server (SMS) was initially pleasant.

Just run the SMS application and you will see it's log window in the notification tray.

Run the iVMS Client software. Enable a SMS, then Add the SMS, then click Configure and you should be able to select cameras from a list.

Once the SMS is connected to those cameras, the Client and the Storage Server will both automatically use the SMS rather than direct connection.

You will have to reconnect the live view (in the Client) to take effect, or exit and restart the Client.

If working properly, the SMS log window will show eg. 2 incoming streams (for 2 cameras) and 4 outgoing streams (eg. Client + Storage server accessing).

You should find the latest documentation PDF was installed with the iVMS software.

 

Hope that helps.
