Browser Based Surveillance Software Problems.
Most DVR systems that use a browser instead of a client program for remote access to the DVR will require Active X components to be installed on your computer to work properly.

For a lot of people this can be a little confusing to get working because Windows by default blocks websites from installing Active X controls on your computer for security reasons. 

In order to install the Active X controls you need to manually change your browser's security settings temporarily to allow the Active X controls to be installed. Once the controls are installed you will need to set your browser's security settings back to their default settings.
