Jun 29, 2019 The next thing that determines the quality of your playback is the player itself, for highest quality, playback from a PC/MAC with a decent audio interface, especially one with a balanced output (XLR or TRS). RME has well known, but expensive products which should to the job adequately, or you could take a look at the new Focusrite Forte. Apr 15, 2020 Even though the options are fewer, there are still great live streaming software and hardware encoders options for Mac, including for MacBook Pro. In short, Mac OS does not support as wide a variety of live streaming software as with Windows. However, OBS and Wirecast both offer solid video broadcast software for live streamers.

Hi all,
Just a quick update to let you know that currently there seems to be an issue with some versions of OSX and Safari that are causing the Live View and Playback of a Hikvision NVR to fail when connecting to it via Safari. When attempting to initiate either, an error message will appear in the bottom right stating that Live View failed or Playback failed depending on what you're trying to access.

Live Playback For Mac Os

This is likely to be as a result of a Safari or OSX update causing compatibility issues with the current Web Components plugin version.
All reports I've seen so far have been from users running the below versions:

1. Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard. Get it for PowerPC or 32bit Intel. Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger. Mac OS X 10.4.7 or later is required. Get it for PowerPC or Intel. Mac OS X 10.3 Panther. QuickTime 6.5.2 or later is required. Get it for PowerPC. Mac OS X 10.2 Jaguar. Get it for PowerPC.
2. Optimized audio player for live events. Especially for playbacks in musicals, where playback has to be stopped after each track. You can add CUE points to jump to chosen positions in the tracks. Play-modes: (Continue All / Continue Cue / Continue OFF). Repeat-modes: (Repeat OFF, Repeat One, Repeat CUE).

• Safari- v9.1.2 build 11601.7.7 and later
• OSX - El Capitan v10.11.6 and later
• Hikvision Web Components Plugin - v3.0.5.43 and later

Hikvision's R&D team are aware of the issue and the issue will be fully fixed in November.

Live Playback Software

In the meantime, there is a workaround to resume successful viewing of your cameras via Safari.
Please change the transmission protocol in use by your NVR from TCP to UDP.
When connecting to your NVR via a web browser, navigate to Configuration >> Local to find this setting. UDP will offer you better real-time performance, but it will be less stable than TCP in unreliable networks.
