jimeowen 0 Posted January 3, 2018 Hi CCTV Gurus, I have recently resurrected my camera DVR (Nichietsu) and want to set it up as I initially intended, albeit quite a few years ago now. So I started locally on my Win 10 PC and the http connection logs me in but doesn't show any video. Ok, so let's download the latest CMS software and try that. The software loads fine but when adding the device it gives a "login timeout" error and doesn't register it at all. I know that I am using the correct IP, port, username and password in CMS, I can PING the device from my PC, I can http into the device from my PC (no video), CMS on my PC can't login, any suggestions?

jeromephone 6 Posted January 3, 2018 can you login using windows explorer (not edge) I had a similiar problem and had to go to windows explorer and put the dvr in compatibility mode. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jimeowen 0 Posted January 4, 2018 Hey Jerome, I have a 500G western digital sata drive in my DVR (which was supposed to be compatible) and the DVR claims it has no hard drive. Any suggestions here ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jimeowen 0 Posted January 4, 2018 I can't tell who's CMS it is but I think I got it from the Nichietsu site. The DVR is about 5 years old. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
