Invalid Operation about hikload HOT 15 CLOSED

Can you see if ISAPI is enabled in the DVR settings? If they are enabled, can you please tell me the DVR model and the firmware version that it is running? Thanks.

from hikload.

Model: Internec (almost the same as hikvision)
ISAPI is enabled.

Model: i7-N39832UHV
Firmware: V3.4.92 build 170323
Code Version: V5.0 build 170228

iVMS 4200 works fine with that DVR.

from hikload.

I added a workaround in the master branch. After you follow the install procedure, if you add --cameras=101 in the arguments, does the issue persist?

from hikload.

After upgrade:

How to install hikload without Qt5?

from hikload.

Added a check to see if Qt5 is not installed that disables the GUI. Should work now.

from hikload.

Now the ImportError and the NameError should be caught and dealt with. Hopefully this should work.

Did you add --cameras 101 to the arguments?

from hikload.

hikload --server 192.168.20.10 --user admin --password 'password' --cameras=101

And nothing more is happening.

from hikload.

Maybe the cameras don't fully implement the ISAPI specification. Maybe with --ffmpeg it will work?

Do you have ffmpeg installed? If yes, I improved logging for the case where --ffmpeg is used to help debug why it isn't working for you.

from hikload.

ffmpeg is already the newest version (7:4.3.3-0+deb11u1).

Can you please add --debug to the arguments after you pull the latest commit and show me the output? Thanks.
