Get VISEC running.

Video surveillance software for Windows. It shows, records and plays back video from your cameras, locally or remotely, and adds plate recognition, access control and QR reading.

Press the scan button to find cameras on your network, then pick a camera to watch it live.

Nearly all ONVIF IP cameras, including Acti, Axis, Bosch, Brickcom, CNB, CP Plus, Dahua, Dynacolor, Geovision, Hanwha Techwin, Hikvision, Honeywell, LG, Mobotix, Panasonic, QNAP, Samsung, Sanyo and Sony.

Windows 10 or later, 64-bit, with 8 GB of memory. The program itself takes about 200 MB.

For the AI features, including plate recognition, a dedicated NVIDIA graphics card with at least 4 GB and DirectX 12 support. Without one VISEC falls back to the processor, which still works but handles far fewer cameras at once.

Then space for recordings, usually from 100 GB. For 4 to 5 cameras, a 500 GB drive typically holds 3 to 4 months.

For the AI detection — plate recognition, weapon detection, faces, objects and animals — plan on a dedicated NVIDIA card with at least 4 GB and DirectX 12 support. That is what lets you run several models across several cameras at the same time.

VISEC falls back to the processor if there is no suitable card, which is fine for trying it on one camera. The more cameras you want analysed, and the higher their resolution, the more a graphics card is worth having.

Built-in chips such as Intel UHD Graphics can be unstable, which may be related to driver updates. A dedicated card avoids it.

As long as your drive allows. You set the storage limit in the control panel, and VISEC keeps events for months, or years on a large drive.

It depends on resolution, frame rate, bandwidth and memory. Typically 16 to 100+ cameras per server, and up to 200.

VISEC analyses the video itself, so any camera works without extra sensors. Choose the regions to watch, set the sensitivity, and record only when something moves.

An email with a picture the moment motion is detected, or an HTTP post to connect your own software.

Yes, from a web browser or with the client application, which can also manage several VISEC servers.

Windows is missing the Microsoft Visual C++ runtime. Download and install it, then restart VISEC.

Yes — the VISEC manual covers setup, cameras, recording, alerts, storage and playback, and there is a separate LPR setup guide for plate recognition. Both are also available as PDFs: manual · LPR best practices.
