A plugin for linux on the website is rather dated (Ubuntu 10.04, 32-bit) and did not work. A quick search on the internet was not successful. On android I use the iVMS-4500 application. The macOS-based iVMS-4200 is a versatile client software application for Hikvision video surveillance. There are modules for live view, playback, event management and e-maps. Will indicate “No Plug-ins detected” even if previous MAC plugin is installed. Solution: 1) First you need to delete all existing plug-ins on the MAC OS (tested with OS X Yosemite version 10.10.2) a. Enable MAC HD icon by navigating to FINDER and clicking on Preferences b. The Finder Preferences menu opens and select to check “Hard. Log into your Hikvision portal and select software. Select 02 Web Components. Select the Mac OSX operating system and click download.
All IP cameras require a plugin to display their video stream in a web browser, and normally this poses no issue. The browser and camera will prompt you automatically to download and install the plugin when you try and view a live feed or, if you already have done so, will ask your permission to run the plugin.Safari on the other hand does not automatically do this when running on a Mac, and so requires you to download and install the plugin manually. For many of our customers who aren't aware of this, it appears to them that their camera simply doesn't work. Thankfully, it's a very quick and straightforward issue to remedy.
There are a couple of places you can download the plugin from:
- Hikvision's Overseas Website - On this site, you're after the file named 'Plug-in V3.0.5.26 build20150126 for Mac OS' (or a newer version). You may need to create an account to access the download, and so the below might be a preferable alternative.
- Hikvision's European Download Portal - This site provides a direct download to the same plugin as above. Of course, do ensure you're downloading the 'for macosx' file.
