I am so grateful to you for making this video! I have so many Hikvision cams from fixed bullets to auto tracking domes and it makes me crazy that they cannot get it together to find a way for their customers to be able to view their cameras for proper setup. I am going to take a chance on the $20 buy-in for the plugin as I know it will come in handy. You da man!
You're the second person that has mentioned the trial period, that is something new that didn't exist when I made the video. I will update thanks for the comment.
Thank you for your time and helpful video. Keep up the good work. "IT IS PEOPLE LIKE YOU THAT MAKE THIS WORLD A BETTER PLACE TO LIVE IN" Cheers to all Green Paddy
Hi Fred, thanks for the video, this worked for me with the added helper file install. The display seems to be zoomed in so some of the options buttons at the bottom are off screen (the display grid option) but otherwise works well. Thanks again.
Thank you very much for your very useful video. After your procedure, now I see the 4 boxes for my 4 cameras managed by NVR Hilook NVR-104MH-D / W. But: the foour boxes are empty. Same result if I switch from main stream and sub-stream. Have ou any idea? Thaks a lot!
Hi, I perform all the steps given in the video but at last it does not show the previous message but It is complete black boxes in the camera... So any Idea?? or can you provide email to communicate easily.....
Easy to follow, and I did reconnect with a camera, but, one problem. I have 9 cameras and only one comes through. I can tab through the cameras and they connect to their appropriate camera name, but screens remains black on 8. Is there a fix for this?
OH! I read further down in the comments and followed your suggestion to power down and power up the NVR and laptop. I did that and the cameras all came up! Thank you for such an informative video.
Hello Fred, thank you for this video, it is awesome, do you have any idea how it can work in a MacBook Pro? is possible to add this Fish eye camera with an Dahua NVR? I have tried, but there's no way to activate ONVIF, can you please advise? Thanks Orlando
It figures they would start charging for that. I am not sure if there is another way or not. I will look into it and update the video. Thank You for the feedback.
Hi Fred, this browser issue is driving me insane. I am an Apple Mac user, is there anyway to be able to view the live feed in my browser. I have tried Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Opera nothing works. I can of course get this to work on a friends Windows machine, but I have Mac's. Surely you have come across this issue as I'm sure some of your clients/customers must use Mac computers. What is really odd, if I use say Firefox for the Hikvision NVR I see the live feeds, but for some reason the IP Cameras will NOT WORK. Obviously something in the NVR versus IP software is different preventing the live stream. Any help would be greatly appreciated.....thanks in advance and have a great XMAS/New Year
I don't understand this.....The title says "view into Google Chrome with the IE Tab extension. As I saw at the end of the video you are using the webbrowser "E" =Explorer ? and not Google Chrome (?) I was getting a message that could try the IE Tab for a while free and after this I should pay for it (?) Sofar till now ,I couldn't activate my Hikvision dome camera through Google Chrome webbrowser.....
Hi Fred, If I want to ad IE Tab in Google Chrome, I have to buy this if I use the extension?? Is this correct? Thanks for answering in advance. Most appriciated. :(
Getting the same message on Chrome as I commented on your Edge video "This stream is encrypted... Go to local configuration interface to set encryption key and restart" Any guidance would be appreciated, thanks.
That has nothing to do with the browser. That is a security feature of the NVR. Go into configuration. Then pick local. You should see an encryption area with a password in it. You can change that to whatever you want and the first time you log into Hik-Connect or a browser it is going to prompt you for that key. It is a security feature.
@@WentworthCCTV Thanks for the quick reply. So I found where the encryption key is, did my own password, closed Chrome and logged back in, no prompt for that password and still no cameras. Do I have to do this directly from the NVR for it to work (ie where my cameras are hard wired into)?
That’s odd…..Make sure you download the plug in if it prompts you to. Other than that it should work. If your still having issues I would close PC browser and reboot PC. Also reboot NVR or DVR. See if that works.
You still have to install the plug in. If you have done that, reboot the computer. As you can see by the other comments, it works my man. Every PC is different.
Hi ... targeting individual cameras directly, this method works ... but NOT with NVR (Model: DS-7604NI-K1 / 4P(B) ... could You please help me out how to make my NVR work again ?!
mine keeps giving me things about untrusted certificates and wont let me login even after i say trust them wont show login tab says https error: content blocked
You would think hikvision being such a massive company would fix this issue, like who tf uses ie anymore any other camera i use has an interface that works with any browser hikvision need to wake up.
@@WentworthCCTV I did a little more research - it turns out you can uninstall IE Tab and re-install it, then you can use it again for 15 days before you have to uninstall and reinstall again.

Thank You! Glad we can help out when we can!
worked! i didnt need to clear any browsing history, but the plugin IE Tab plugin is only a free trail and has an added step to installation-- 4/6/23
You're the second person that has mentioned the trial period, that is something new that didn't exist when I made the video. I will update thanks for the comment.
Did you ever resolve the free trial issue?
Thank you so much. I was fed up with installing plugin multiple times. Will try this for sure.
You're welcome. Glad the video helped!
Thank you for your time and helpful video. Keep up the good work.

Thank you Fred ! But IE Tab is no longer free : $19... Another idea ?

Hello Mike! did you find a solution for Mac? I have the same problem....thanks
There is no need to install the plugin, the camera will work just with the IE Tab extension, it works on windows 10 and chrome
You are the man! Worked Perfect! You earned a Subscribe and Like!!!!!!!!!
I don't understand this.....The title says "view into Google Chrome with the IE Tab extension.

Sofar till now ,I couldn't activate my Hikvision dome camera through Google Chrome webbrowser.....
Do you have to have that IE tab or can you configure it so it works without the IE tab Extension?
THX. It works now. Regards
Curious if this IEtab extension is still working on Windows 11 Pro computers with Chromw once you purchase after trial ends?
Hi Sr, I consider this solution has been just one more extension, is just for a moment, due to the IE tab just expired after a few days.
May I ask !! Where do I get the plug in ....Thanks in advance

thanks for helping
Hi Fred,
If I want to ad IE Tab in Google Chrome, I have to buy this if I use the extension?? Is this correct? Thanks for answering in advance. Most appriciated. :(
No, you do not have to buy the extension. Just download it as video shows.
When I installed it, it said to buy a license or it's a 2 week trial
@@tpopejr hmm. That must be new. I will try it today and see what happens.
Will this work for Asua Chromebox5 running Chrome OS?
Great question. I have never tried with Chromebox. Stay tuned.
IE tab has to be paid for if you want to use it for more than 2 weeks!
This was helpful
This works for a few seconds but then the video feed disappears and I need to "choose" the cameras again. Any idea why?
4:22
i forgot the credentials here how to reset or how to know the username ?

And probably verify NVR IP address is accurate in the browser settings under internet explorer mode pages too. Good luck!!
Chrome saying :: "Item currently unavailable. Please check the troubleshooting guide. "
What should i do??
doesnt work. still install plugin ...
You still have to install the plug in. If you have done that, reboot the computer. As you can see by the other comments, it works my man. Every PC is different.
nice job!
Thank You, glad it helped out!
How do you find the ip for the sony cameras?
Kya Ham Kisi aur ke CCTV camera ko apne mobile se access kar sakte hain
Hi ... targeting individual cameras directly, this method works ... but NOT with NVR (Model: DS-7604NI-K1 / 4P(B) ... could You please help me out how to make my NVR work again ?!
It should work with NVRs also. Did you down load plug in and update firmware I have used this method with that NVR before so it should work!
mine keeps giving me things about untrusted certificates and wont let me login even after i say trust them wont show login tab says https error: content blocked
What virus protection are you running?
Do you have to clear your browsing history each time you want to view the cameras?
No. You just need to clear browsing history that one time before adding IE Tab.
I see the error encryption key error.
Please help me to solve this problem
Somebody put a key in when they installed. Log into the camera and you will find that in local settings.
You would think hikvision being such a massive company would fix this issue, like who tf uses ie anymore any other camera i use has an interface that works with any browser hikvision need to wake up.
Agreed. The newer hardware is a little more user friendly, but they have a long way to go!
godd job sir!
Is there another option now that IE Tab is no longer free?
I don't think so. The other option would be to download the Edge browser and use that in legacy mode. That is what I use.
@@WentworthCCTV I did a little more research - it turns out you can uninstall IE Tab and re-install it, then you can use it again for 15 days before you have to uninstall and reinstall again.
Good idea!
yeah, now ietab is asking for money. switche to edge which chromium based and has IE mode.
Weird, are you in the USA? Mine is still free.
Its a train version. Whats next solution
it's not free
It was free last time I did it and when I made the video.
great
ie tab платная как я ее оплачу из России
So you have to pay for that software. That sucks.
Bullshit it does not work.
It does work, read the other comments. What is the issue you are having?
This quit working if you don't pay.
