This guide is to help you install Hikvision plug-in on Mac OS, realize live view and playback most of Hikvision DVR/IPC/Encoder on Safari of Mac OS. Theoretically supported Hikvision DVR/IPC/Encoder is listed below: a. DVR with firmware V2.0.0 or later b. IPC with firmware V3.2.0 or later c. DS-6600 series encoder and DS-6700 series encoder. The plugin is installed but looks like something went wrong because the message keeps asking to install the plug-in again and again: “close the browser when installing the plug-in”. This issue plug-in with the Hikvision DVRs, NVRs, and IP cameras is related to the compatibility mode on Internet Explorer (IE). From LAN ( intranet ) I could see live view cameras using the iVMS-4500 ios app, but not from WAN ( internet ). After I setup the nvr as DMZ and forward all the port I could think of to the NVR, i can get live images from internet using iVMS-4500 ios app.
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:
- Hikvision's Overseas Website - On this site, you're after the file named 'Plug-in V3.0.5.26 build20150126 for Mac OS' (or a newer version). You may need to create an account to access the download, and so the below might be a preferable alternative.
- Hikvision's European Download Portal - This site provides a direct download to the same plugin as above. Of course, do ensure you're downloading the 'for macosx' file.

This means you may keep trying to install the WebComponents plugin but it does nothing. Thankfully there is a fix:
How to use Firefox v52 to live view Hikvision device
1. Install the plug in first.
2. Open a blank page of Firefox and input about:config
(where you normally type the web address)3 Press Enter. Click on the, “I Accept the Risk” Button.

Click OK and choose “false” for the VALUE.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).
