How do I download videos off my TVI System?

To download video footage you’ll need a flash inserted into one of the USB ports on the system. Then go to Main Menu>Export>Normal. Once in the exporting page, you’ll need to select the channel the video was recorded on along with the starting time and end time to search for footage.

Then click on “Search” at the bottom and you’ll have some video previews show up. You can select any of the previews and play it on the top right hand side. When you know what files you’ll need check mark the box on the upper left hand corner of the preview window and click on “Export” at the bottom. Once the export is done, you’ll now have all the files on your flash drive.

How do I format my HDD?

To format your HDD you’ll need to go to the Main Menu>HDD>General. Once in the HDD menu, check mark the box to the left-hand side of the HDD information. Then click on “Format” or “Int” at the bottom. Please note this will delete all information off the HDD.

How do I playback my recordings?

To playback videos go to Main Menu>Playback>Normal. In that section choose your camera(s) on the right-hand side. Then double click any of the days on the calendar with either a dark blue or red on them. This should automatically start playback for that day. Use the bar at the bottom to jump to a specific time during that day.

I have everything plugged in, but all I see on my screen is “No Video”

The system should automatically pick up cameras once they are connected and have power. Be sure to check the power source for the cameras. If the power is connected correctly there may not be enough power be supplied. Cup your hands over the lens and if the IR lights turn on, then the camera has enough power. If not, you may need to try a different outlet for the cameras.

I’m having issues connecting my DVR to my phone.

Possible Fixes:

1.Please go to Menu-Configuration-Network and under the General tab make sure enable DHCP is selected, if it is not enabled then select enable and apply. If you had to enable it, restart the NVR and try the P2P setup again.

2.If you are still having issues, make sure DDNS is NOT enabled(unchecked). If DDNS is checked, uncheck it and apply then go back to Platform Access and disable P2P and apply. Once both are disabled, do a power cycle and reboot the unit. After the unit restarts enable P2P again, and do another power cycle.

3.Go to Extranet Access, Platform Access or DDNS and make sure LaView P2P is selected then apply, also make sure “Enable Stream Encryption” is disabled.

4. If none of these work, then it could be a network issue. Try to restart your modem/router by unplugging it for about 45 seconds. Plug it back in and restart the NVR, then try to reconnect your system to the P2P account.

How do I find my system’s IP address?

To find your system’s IP address go to Main Menu>Maintenance>System Info>Network. The IPv4 Address at the top is your local IP. If your IP address is 0.0.0.0 or 192.0.0.64, this means your system is offline. There are a few causes from this, but usually it’s a bad ethernet cable or the cable is not plugged in properly to either the DVR or Router. If those are checked to be correct, try restarting your router by unplugging it for a minute and restarting the DVR.
