Hikvision Plugin For Mac Chrome

by

Now, when adobe flash player is the last of the chrome plugins, we started adding features not so close to the original “plugins” idea. So, in addition to adobe flash player menus, we added Clear History and History On/Off buttons so you can clear history and disable/enable history recording directly from the Plugins menu. Chrome stopped supporting NPAPI (the component that runs this kind of plugins) in the most recent release (Chrome 42, released about a week and a half ago) and your DVR plugin is probably an NPAPI plugin, which is why it does not work anymore. We’ll add the extension to Chrome; right now it says “Chrome IE is now installed:” You will see this little icon right here: when it’s “On” that means it’s using Google Chrome and when it’s off it is using Internet Explorer. So you see you can switch from Internet Explorer to Chrome within the same interface of Chrome. UPDATE: Hikvision firmware releases (NVR: 4.22.00 / Camera: 5.6.0) now supports a native plugin which allows for video viewing in Chrome and Firefox browsers. Hikvision's current use of NPAPI plugin for web browsers to display video no longer works in Google Chrome v45 (since September 2015) and in Firefox v52.0 released 7th march 2017. This means users will no longer be able to successfully.

So it seems as of last week Firefox released a new version (52) which pretty much breaks all browser plugins apart from Flash (which is what rendered Chrome useless for this not so long ago). This means you may keep trying to install the WebComponents plugin but it does nothing. Thankfully there is a fix:

5. Exit firefox and reload the DVR/NVR web interface to 'accept' to run the plugin at the top of the page (all being well).
There were a few other steps recommended past this, but we have found this alone to do the trick.
