tedyst / hikload Goto Github PK

Hello,

I'm trying to use this code as base for an automatic video download from a hikvision NVR.

I have the problem that even though I use the correct user, pass and camera, I always get an unauthorized user response.

>>> responseXML = requests.post(serverpath, data, headers).text
>>> responseXML
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<userCheck>
<statusValue>401</statusValue>
<statusString>Unauthorized</statusString>
</userCheck>

In the DVR the camara names are "Camara 01" "Camera 02" .... but I use as indicated in the config life "101" "201"

Any help will be appreciated.

thanks
E.M.

Describe the bug
I use the ISAPI/hikload to coordinate video recording and downloading for my research. However, when I download a video immediately after I stop a recording using ISAPI, the video is sometimes incomplete. However, the video is correctly formatted if I look on the DVR itself.

To Reproduce
To start a recording:
hikutils.putXML(self.server, 'ContentMgmt/record/control/manual/start/tracks/' + cam)

To stop a recording:
hikutils.putXML(self.server, 'ContentMgmt/record/control/manual/stop/tracks/' + addr)

To download:

resp = self.server.ContentMgmt.search.getAllRecordingsForID(addr)
vids = resp['CMSearchResult']['matchList']['searchMatchItem']
if not isinstance(vids, list):
  vids = [vids]
vid = vids[-1]
dwnld = self.server.ContentMgmt.search.downloadURI(vid['mediaSegmentDescriptor']['playbackURI'])
if not os.path.exists(output_folder):
  os.makedirs(output_folder)
with open(output_folder + str(name) + "_" + addr + ".mp4", 'wb') as file:
  file.write(dwnld.content)

Additional context
Device is an iDS-7216HQHI-M2/S

it's possible?

When running the hikload code to download video from nvr, we are not getting any video, while the videos are being shown on the Hikconnect app. This is what is showing:

We have checked for the IP address, and the settings. What may be going wrong?

good afternoon! Can you please tell me, the video from the camera using the iwms 4200 program is downloaded at an average speed of 50 megabits, but using isapi, the speed does not rise above 2.4 kilobytes.

Hello, I've tried getting something similar to work and I keep getting an error from ffmpeg:

[rtsp @ 000001b3b14db040] method DESCRIBE failed: 453 Not Enough Bandwidth

This was also the case with this library. Any chance you've come across this before?

Hello, I'm tried testing your program and encountered this error while running hikload-qt. When I tested the connection I got 101,102 and 103. Upon clicking start download of an hour video with specified date and time this happens. TIA

Camera Model DS-2CD2027G1-L

I am trying to do similar project.
can you please let me know supported models of hikvision on which I can run this.
thank you in advance.

First of all, thank you for the Python Hikvision API. It's a great job.

The API downloads videos from the NVR as they are stored - in 1 GB chunks. Most users (I suppose) would like one video per camera of the required length. Did you consider adding the concatenating feature (option) to the app?

I imagine the download queue would contain information about the camera (which is discarded while creating the queue). Once all recordings of one camera are downloaded, we would concat the videos using FFmpeg. It should be enough to copy the encoding since all videos are in the same format and encoding, so the concatenation would not take so long.
Further (which I suppose could be another pull request and/or issue), we could cut the resulting video to contain only the required time from arguments.

I already do the same in my post-processing script, and the concatenation usually runs between 60 - 150 times faster than the duration of the video.

The proposed solution would only slow the process marginally (without re-encoding, always saving new videos and deleting old ones). It could blow up in terms of memory when downloading longer videos. Still, we can always check for the video length before running this process or prompt the user for confirmation.

Since I need the functionality, I will implement it in my fork. Please let me know if you'd be interested, and I can implement it for the HikLoad.

hikload doesn't run in python==3.8?

Hello
I am very impressed by your code.
Would you please let me know if there is a way to download a specific period of video?
Thank you.

I would like to inquire because the following error occurred when executing the 'getList(response)' function of main().

※ In the 112th line of util.py, insert print(i) as follows, and the result is 'ns0:sourceID'.

It is possible to modify this script for use with cameras, not DVRs?

Hi, Thanks for the awesome package.

I found an error when trying to download a single recording.

I think the error occurs because the received recording data format is different when there are multiple recordings, and only one recording.

When there is only one recording, I needed to fix the existing code to this and remove the for loop.
recording = recordings['CMSearchResult']['matchList']['searchMatchItem']

I hope this issue could be fixed.

I'm sorry I couldn't help much, I'm a noob in Python.

After modifying config.py, I ran main.py, but the following error occurred.
Would you give me a hand?

Hello @Tedyst

Is there a way to use the Hikvision SDK to download video, but skipping frames?. I want to reduce bandwich comsumption skipping some frame from the DVR/NVR directly. Lets put an example:

If I download a video from 2021-04-13 15:20:00 to 2021-04-13 15:25:00 I will have a 5 minutes video. Let's say the device save the video with a fps od 10. This means this downloaded video have 3000 frames. Now I want to skipp 9 frames per each frame downloaded, so for this example I will only download 300 frames. The downloaded frames will be: frame1, frame11, frame21, frame 31, and so on. (note that 9 frames were skipped between each downloaded frame).

Is there a way to do this?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Even though providing starttime and endtime why is that the videos which gets downloaded is way longer than required some times its 2.5 hours or 1.5 hours although we are always looking to download 16 minutes of video. Its very random. The command we are using hikload --server servername --user username --password password --starttime 2024-03-05T08:06:00 --endtime 2024-03-05T08:08:00 --cameras=2001 and it is downloading the video from 6:17 am to 9:00 am. Why is that. AM i doing something wrong?

follow the error, I found that I used the IP alone to enter the URL of the corresponding camera, which does not have a hard disk to store. All videos are stored in the same URL, which can see all the camera footage and playback information. In this case, how to do it?

Describe the bug
The package doesn't run on Python 3.7, throwing a SyntaxError on this line. This syntax was added in Python 3.8.

If the package is intentionally not compatible with older versions of Python, it should declare that so that pip won't install it in an environment where the code won't run.

To Reproduce
Attempt to run hikload or hikload-qt, regardless of arguments, on Python 3.7.

Additional context
Nothing particularly relevant.
