![]() By the way too, I note there's a commercial product out there, NetcamViewer which looking remarkable like a RPi based product Removing them and then a update/clean up restored a camera being displayed by the RPi. Incidentally Installing the omxplayer GUI, tboplayer and/or rpisurv were not productive moves here. Also I don't see a way to adjust my PTZ cameras using a RPi (or Ubuntu Desktop) if connected through the Hikvision NVR. But if the RPi camera feed comes instead from a separate network switch not the NVR, the cameras are displayed correctly. I don't know why I get an intermittent distorted HD picture with omxplayer using /101 for camera 1. I've been unable to use Wine to run any of Hikvision's software (I tried POL/Winetricks etc), or Hikvision's software for Linux they released in the past.Ĭameras connected to the Hikvision NVR, are on a separate IP subnet, then from the Hikvision to the router LAN and RPi. With a Hikvision NVR you'll need Windows or Mac, not Linux. I assume that storage devices can be configured with these software options. My view of cctv Linux situation/options here, I can have home cctv based around the RPi, with many cameras, Zoneminder, Xeoma, Shinobi, MotionEyeOS appear to be reasonable software options which work with Linux (some free some not). ![]() Rebooting after any change of he Rpi's network connection, from say my network switch to Hikvision NVR seems to help. The display is much better on the sub stream (102) but it's at a much lower resolution. At first I wondered if the camera was faulty. The HD main stream (101) HD displayed by omxplayer isn't stable, even if I can get it to work, the bottom half of the picture every few seconds breaks down into coloured vertical lines. The display of individual camera streams taken from the NVR stream then on to a RPi Raspian or RPi Kodi only partially works. I can now display directly cameras from a network switch to the RPi 3B+ Raspian with omxplayer. I found I am unable to play a MP4 video file with VLC, so it's looking more like a VLC codec issue. I didn't spot anything in the other logs that looked significant.Īm I asking too much for the RPi VLC to play the NVR network stream, perhaps a missing codec issue? On the RPi I can play youtube videos OK on a 40" LCD TV. In the log, at the end of my URL for the stream, it reports "successfully opened". The VLC URL I used appears to be nothing significant in the VLC log file (set to level 2), no errors or warnings. The RPi VLC screen is mostly black with the VLC logo in the middle and the pause button active as if something is being streamed but not displayed. Omxplayer -live -refresh -video_queue 4 -fps 30 -win “0 0 1920 1080” -live -refresh -video_queue 4 -fps 30 -win “0 0 1920 1080” RPi VLC I am using the same URL that works with Ubuntu 16.04 VLC on my Desktop PC. Often the terminal output with omxplayer ending with no IP camera displayed and "have a nice day (winking smiley)". Both omxplayer and VLC seem nearly there. But so far I have not been able to consistently display a HD camera stream from the Hikvision NVR using a RPi 3B+ Stretch 16GB. Using iVMS i can configure my PTZ cameras and settings etc. I am able to view the Hikvision NVR network stream on the LAN with W10, XP notebook (both using Internet Explorer and iVMS not Edge), and Ubuntu 16.04 Desktop PCs with VLC. Rather than rely solely on the Hikvision's modest POE, I have at the remote location a POE network switch into which my POE cameras can be connected rather than the using the NVR's POE. Because the Hikvision NVR cooling fans can create significant noise, my intention is to site the NVR remotely (also for security reasons). ![]() My plan has been to install a home cctv system based around a Hikvision NVR.
