Hi,
I have decided to tackle the cameras part of my setup and I'm looking for some help and maybe some guidance from some of the camera gurus.
I have spent the night reading the camera posts and unfortunately I am none the wiser
I have decided to take the bold step and create a new post
I have 4 Trendnet https://www.trendnet.com/products/ip-cameras/TV-IP311PI dome cameras and they are hooked to my Synology NAS Surveillance station .. all the is working dandy
.. but I have this cool HC2 that I'd like to make work a little more for its money...
I have the cameras added using the Hikvision Ds2cd2132i plugin. I understand the cameras are the same 'under the hood'
In the web UI using chrome I can't see the picture but if I switch to Firefox I can see the picture. The same happens if I go directly to the camera UI so I'm putting that down to some chrome extension that is not compatible.
This is the way I have them setup (hc2 settings and camera settings)
JPG stream - Streaming/channels/102/Picture
MJPG stream - Streaming/channels/102/Preview
Ultimately I'd like to be able to detect motion in the area using my sensor and grab a snapshot but would like start small.
I have not been able to get any tablet or phone to show the images either on my local LAN or remotely.
I have tried iPad2, iPad Air, Samsung Galaxy 4 (10" and 7"), Insignia Tablet (10-" android) or a galaxy S7 or S6 phones
Considering what I have and what I have treid could anybody offer a course of treatment I could try (besides throwing the camera in the bin)
Thanks in advance
