Most importantly, NVR will fail to operate when encountering firmware corruption. While you can install and uninstall VMS in event of malfunction of software. You even can restore MacOS when encountering system error. It should be noted that if your NVR’s firmware is corrupted, it can not be fixed by users, users have to return product to manufacturers for repairing. Moreover, most NVR adopts System-on-chip, which is impossible to upgrade or update. You have to abandon existing NVR If video processing capability is insufficient when you want to upgrade your existing HD surveillance system to 4K system, or you want to increase number of cameras. VMS software enables you to have a PC-based NVR which provides much powerful and robust video processing capability.

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:
