Amcrest Forum

So I've got my camera system set up and everything works through the Amcrest app. However, i've got other IP cameras that I use another IP Camera viewing app for, and I need a way to get all my camera feeds in 1 location.

On my Amcrest 8 channle unit, i've specified a static IP, assigned an HTTP port (which is the port is forwarded on my router) and the UPNP is set to reflect the HTTP port correctly. I can connect to it just fine in the IP Camera app using "http://ipaddress:port, but it only shows channel 1.

How do I get it to show the other channels?

Hello sprime1,

Please set up port forwarding for the TCP port as well. This is required for remote viewing on the app as well as computer.

I can view all the cameras in the Amcrest app no problem, connecting it via P2P.

The problem is when I'm trying to add the cameras through other IP Camera apps (that consolidates all my IP cameras into 1 app - DLINK and other brands) I can only see channel 1 of the 8 channel Amcrest unit.

Hello,

Other apps might not be designed to pull up the DVR channels so its defaulting to channel one. So it looks like you may have to stick to the Amcrest app for the DVR.
