Many forum members are aware that surveillance cameras are installed for a purpose, not to just give a pretty overview picture that turns out to be of no use after recording an incident, so being aware of DORI distances is important. A selection of 4 standard and 2 custom scene profiles for image parameters, which can be set on up to 4 schedules. These are monthly schedules covering a whole year! Network Storage MicroSD/microSDHC/microSDXC card (512 GB) local storage, and NAS (NFS, SMB/CIFS), auto network replenishment (ANR) The default exposure time is 1/12 which might unreasonably accentuate low-light performance and create motion blur when used by unaware customers. With Video quality=Medium, at 15fps, the actual uncapped bitrate on a static scene is the same when using either h.264 or h.265

Startup and Operating Conditions -30 °C to 60 °C (-22 °F to 140 °F). Humidity 95% or less (non-condensing) Audio Bit Rate -U: 64 Kbps (G.711ulaw/G.711alaw)/16 Kbps (G.722.1)/16 Kbps (G.726)/32 to 192 Kbps (MP2L2)/8 to 320 Kbps (MP3)/16 to 64 Kbps (AAC-LC) In the parallel post for this type of camera, spammenotinoz asked me to post a BI stats clip ( Hikvision ColorVu + 4K (DS-2CD2087G2-L)). I note you don’t use BI but if you look at that, although I now realise there are no column headings, it shows (for my fps of 10), the key frame (i-frame) rate from the camera is wrong (10.02/0.1) (10 seconds). It’s set at 20 in the camera and so should be 0.5/s. I recall 50 is the default. We can conclude, therefore, that as well as CBR/VBR, several parameter settings in the ‘Video/Audio’ tab are ignored.

Disclosure : The device under review was provided by Andy Wong of @EMPIRETECANDY in exchange for a fair and unbiased review. Video Compression Main stream: H.265+/H.265/H.264+/H.264; Sub-stream: H.265/H.264/MJPEG; Third stream: H.265/H.264The camera isn’t correctly reporting Smart Events to the NVR or management system. While VCA data is being passed over correctly, intrusion detection and line crossing detection are labelled as motion detection. This doesn’t seem to depend on the active codec. Tested via DS-7604NI-K1/4P with 3.4.103 firmware. Being unfamiliar with Hikvision, there are quite a few settings that I don’t know what they mean and I may ask for an explanation in due course if that’s OK...

Startup and Operating Conditions -30 °C to +60 °C (-22 °F to +140 °F), humidity 95% or less (non-condensing) OK Video quality. A huge effect on bitrate, from 200kbps to 6Mbps from the lowest to the highest setting. There are a number of scale expansions to otherwise existing and familiar configuration settings that should help users to fine tune the camera for their use case. Hikvision have also helpfully started publishing 2 camera features which should be of help to forum members :

Basic Event Motion detection (human and vehicle targets classification), video tampering alarm, exception CPU utilisation in Live View is about a third less than G1 ColorVu using the LocalServiceComponent Windows helper and Firefox. So what I’ve done here is some sample snapshots from the 8MP DS-2CD2087G2-LU, the original 4MP IPC-T2347G-LU (DS-2CD2347G1-LU) and the 8MP IPC-T2385G-I (DS-2CD2385G-I). This was OK via the web GUI, and OK after using the upc (don’t try this at home) command at the bootloader. It may depend on the specific method used to ‘reset to Inactive’. What’s probably of most interest is how the camera performs at night, and in particular where the boundary is between being able to squeeze down the exposure to reduce movement blur enough, and still get a usable image, ideally in colour.
