This is a gem. Thanks from Canada.

Thank you very much🙏 I'm trying to become regular with my videos but I'll get there eventually 😁

[@peterwalton1502]

Very good video as I am about to set my cameras up 👏👏👏🇬🇧

[@cctvsecuritysupplies5304]

Thank you Peter😀 I missed a couple of things but I really appreciate your feedback. Have a great day, thank you🙏🥳

[@russgenders7550]

yes, but how does it look at night?

[@VastardokKukiao]

Ikr these fkin videos never co er what is important which how they perform at night and with moving cars and peoole

[@VastardokKukiao]

Fax bro, no one reviewws these at night smh

[@thomasdsouza224]

Thankyou for going through the steps in great detail. Can you please give the model number for the NVR?

[@cctvsecuritysupplies5304]

Hi Thomas apologies for the delay. I think the NVR we were using at the time was a DS-7608NI-I2/8P. The M- Series NVRs are available now and they have even more processing power.

Wow, thank you so much🙏 we're so busy doing what we do in business that making these videos is difficult to find the time for, but I'll never give up trying to find the time😅 There WILL be more.....thank you😁🙏

[@maazm9098]

Great job

[@cctvsecuritysupplies5304]

Thank you🙏👍 I'm trying to make these regularly but it's difficult as I install, service, support, sell and distribute all over Australia for a living. Doesn't leave much time🤣🤣

Can I keep the supplemental white light on all night?

[@LangerFeen]

HI, thanks for this awesome video. In the video settings, your interval was set to 50. It should result in smaller file sizes but does it affect your quality much ? I have the same camera and teh main stream interval was set to 50 and couldn't be changed but the sub stream interval default was set to 12.

[@cctvsecuritysupplies5304]

Hi@@LangerFeen thank you very much 🙏 If you have H.265+ turned on, you won't be able to change the IFrame interval. If you disable H.265+ you can then manually set . Due to large nature of IFrame we generally make it 2x frame rate at the most, but it's important for it to be an exact multiple of frame rate.

[@revosven]

Have you noticed that the min/max detection is different than usual, as you are inputting on a 4:3 preview, while the camera feed is more like 32:9? I'd expect the detections at the side would be skewed compared to ones in the middle?

[@I_ammm_mojojojo]

Hi there. I have a DS-7216HUHI-K2 (DVR) with a few BNC cameras and recently added a DS-2CD2387G2P-LSU/SL IP panoramic camera to the system and much as this DVR supports IP camera connectivity, it doesn't seem to like the image format/resolution from this camera . It connects to it and all the settings are available.. but the image from the HDMI/VGA output just remains blank for this cam (only) but I can view it thru the app. I believe it's possibly a resolution issue.. something to do with the decompression of the stitched images or in inability for the DVR to process the stream but I'm not sure. Have you seen this before and if so, what's the issue? Also, if there's no "fix" for this, would you please recommend a DVR (for 4-8 BNC & 16 IP), that works with these panoramic dual lens IP cams? Thanks.

[@cctvsecuritysupplies5304]

Hi Jo I have seen this many times and I think you'll find that your live view can't display the panoramic camera in mainstream. At the bottom of the image if you switch from mainstream back to substream I think it will display the panoramic camera for you. The limitation is usually the display resolution of the monitor or TV. But it can be a resource limitation of the DVR as well, or a mixture of both.

[@VastardokKukiao]

Get a fkin nvr why are u using dvr with IP cams lol

[@CloutContent]

Seems weird that the intrusion is the one that notifies the app i would wanna be notified for the motion detection paramater and then i would want that alarm audio and light flash to go with the line cross. Can you tell the system to do alarm outputs through the line cross?

[@CloutContent]

Oh ig you can do through the linkage…. i hate hikvison.

[@crsbloo]

Hi! Thanks for the video! I have an issue, i can not playback from my NVR because the camera's resolution is too high 5120x1440? Is there a solution or just the local connection to the NVR from the web interface is the answer? (or hik-connect which seems limited to 2min videos for downloading)

[@cctvsecuritysupplies5304]

Hi Cristi, we either use a live view (monitor/ small tv) plugged into the NVR, or if we're using a Web browser we generally use Chrome. I personally have the panoview on my home and have never had a playback bandwidth problem. Do you have H.265 and especially H.265+ enabled. This data compression is awesome but it CAN create some anomalies. We've found this with remote playback over Star Link. H.265+ and Star Link protocols don't seem to be aligned just yet. But any local connection (over your LAN) should never have bandwidth issues. As for Hik-Connect.....it is one of the really good vendor apps, but I use it in moderation for playback. All the other functions are fabulous, as is the playback, but we're in Australia, and the internet in the country is appalling. Much smaller and less developed countries have internet services about 15 to 20 times better than Australia. Sad but true😔 I would try adjusting your H.264/H.265 for starters.

[@crsbloo]

@@cctvsecuritysupplies5304 I have 3x Hikvision Panoramic (the bullet one) each 8MP and 4k, and the NVR is also a Hikvision which can output 4k and has 8 PoE ports supporting 8mp each. I can see them live on the NVR, but when i try to playback, i receive a message "IP camera resolution limit exceeded". I can playback them on the local network with internet explorer, or on Hik-Connect, but not on the NVR, which frustrates me.

[@war4peace1979]

What I highly suggest is getting a proper NVR solution, e.g. a PC with Blue Iris. It's more expensive, but man... I wouldn't know what I would have done without it.

[@walley2637]

only certain hikvision NVRs can display the minimum resolution of these cameras. your only options are to use the web interface or upgrade your NVR. but, as someone that just upgraded the NVR I can confirm that it does work but it still only displays the camera at 16:9 ratio. to view the proper widescreen format you still need to use the web interface.

[@superskunknl]

Mine doesn't have the microphone spot in the middle, any idea why??

[@cctvsecuritysupplies5304]

@@superskunknl hi actually no I'm not sure why. But there are several different models of the panoview camera

[@rickjames6948]

At 4:50, you are correct about disk savings with h.265 and +. BUT, BUT, the video quality of h.265 compared to h.264 is TERRIBLE. Straight up h.264 and h.265 compared is rather large. The more compression the poorer the video quality is. H.265 has MORE compression in macro blocks. Read up on it. Also compare the two IN YOUR OWN CAMERAS and see for yourself. Trust me sir. I did the 265 and + deal. As soon as you try to zoom in the video gets nasty real quick. You want CONSTANT bitrate type, H.264 with NO PLUS, HIGH profile and matching I frames with your frame rate setting.

At 16:20, why would you WELCOME someone that is ON your property? Unless this was for a store front where you ARE welcoming people. Your choice of course.

[@cctvsecuritysupplies5304]

Hi Rick, yes the "Welcome....." messages are not used very often. We have decided we're not too keen on any of the in-built messages so we have recorded our own WAV files which we also load onto our customers devices now. Uploading a custom message is really easy.

[@vuurvreter]

I have had the 8 mp version and was not satisfied with it. I had 2 complaints about the camera. 1. My network was so heavily loaded by the camera that some devices functioned very poorly and sometimes could not even be reached. 2. The camera was connected directly to the NVR and was recording 24/7. As a backup, I always use an SD card recording of the motion detection by default. Just in case a malfunction occurred. Often the camera kept writing motion to the SD card even though no motion was detected, so it basically kept recording continuously, which of course was not the intention. Eventually I returned the cameras (tested 2 of them) within 14 days. I found this difficult, because the images were very nice. Thank you from the Netherlands

[@cctvsecuritysupplies5304]

Hi Hielke thank you very much🙏 The 8MP Panoramic demo camera we installed still "seems" to working well, but we will definitely have a much closer look. The network bandwidth is easy to see through the NVR, but we can plug in to an isolated poe switch as well.we don't have a micro SD in our demo camera but we'll try that.

[@vuurvreter]

@@cctvsecuritysupplies5304 I am very curious about the results of your test with the SD card, because somewhere I would love to have this camera. Please let me know the outcome? I had initially connected the camera to a POE Switch, then directly to the NVR, well one that can handle the heavy duty tasks of this camera (NI series). In both cases I could not set up the camera as I would like.

[@jeffbird3414]

This helped alot, thank you for your help

[@marc8136]

Hoi, wat bedoel je precies qua netwerk? Welke apparaten kon je daarna niet meer gebruiken ? Het is in principe toch niet meer dan 2x een 4mp camera, zoveel kan het toch niet gebruiken ?

[@cctvsecuritysupplies5304]

@@marc8136 Hi Marc, you are correct. The load that 2 x 4MP cameras puts on a network (even a 10/100 Mbps network) is barely perceptible. But the ColorVu Panoview camera is new and who knows what a new product might introduce. Having said that, we have been trying everything to reproduce the problem but still no issues have found.

[@sampathwickramaratne3755]

Hi, how do I connect my nvr to SADP

[@cctvsecuritysupplies5304]

Hi Sampath, the SADP software is just Hikvision proprietary software we use to find any Hikvision device connected to your LAN, or home network. So the NVR doesn't connect to the SADP software, but the SADP tool will find the IP address of the NVR 😊

[@diegobotia1794]

​ @cctvsecuritysupplies5304 mentioned in a comment below that this is 2 x 4MP ? The camera is 8MP but because of 2 lenses it's 4 Each ? - I need to buy 5 new cameras and DVR - need advice if all 5 panoramic is a good idea or not

[@VastardokKukiao]

Yeah they work like that
