#ADD CAMERA ON SRICAM DEVICE VIEWER WINDOWS 10#
View in Internet ExplorerĪlthough Edge doesn’t support ActiveX plugin, the Windows 10 still has included the IE browser. The solution is either using IE but enabled with Compatibility view mode, or Firefox/Chrome browser installed with IE tab plugin. If that’s the case, don’t be frustrated, because you still can access and config the camera on Windows 10. Most likely, the manufacturer stopped the production, then stopped updating the firmware. If you own or use old IP cameras/DVRs/NVRs running with ActiveX plugin, you can contact the supplier to see whether the device has a new firmware to get the problem solved. New products have a different firmware built-in that no longer uses ActiveX plugin, replaced it by using Adobe Flash player or QuickTime player, therefore the devices can be accessed and viewed through Safari, Chrome, Firefox etc other modern browsers. To fix this, some manufacturers redesigned their products. End users were also worried as their existing IP cameras couldn’t be accessible on Windows 10. On the other hand, the elimination of ActiveX support from the Edge browser dismayed many security suppliers that heavily relied on ActiveX plugin to develop their network security products. In order to improve its performance to compete with rivals (Safari, Chrome, Firefox), the Edge browser stopped ActiveX plugin support. Most users clapped their hands to welcome the decision, as the Edge web browser proved to provide fast web surfing performance.
