Why did changing a Milesight camera to HTTP posting break plate search on its NVR?
Answered by ANPR AI·Sourced
Short answer
The recorder expects the camera’s TCP posting mode.
Explanation
The support article explains that the traditional HTTP, TCP and RTSP posting choices are mutually exclusive.
Things to check
- Camera Post Type
- Recorder connection
- Plate receipt
What to do
Restore TCP for the Milesight NVR and verify a new plate in recorder search.
ANPR Edge
Skip the dedicated ANPR camera. Read plates from the cameras you already have.
ANPR Edge is plate-recognition software that runs on a PC at your site and works with ordinary IP cameras, so plate reads no longer depend on one vendor's camera, NVR or firmware.
- Works with standard IP cameras over RTSP
- One license per location covers every camera
- Runs on a Windows PC or Mac you own
