NVR/IPC “Fails to start live stream”

NVR/IPC “Fails to start live stream”

There are a couple reasons a user may receive this error.

  1. Run the browser as administrator by right clicking on the browsers short cut (remember devices only load in IE)
  2. Disable the computers anti-virus software and reinstall the plugin this will insure that none of the plugins component’s get blocked when installing.
  3. Make sure that the cameras bit stream is not set to high. For example if a camera is set to 8 mbps the camera can only stream up to 8 times total over all devices but if it is set to 2 mbps it can be streamed up to 16 times over all devices. (This may also give you the error “Have reached the upper stream limit”)
