Hanwha Wisenet-Viewer Light Video Management Software

Wisenet-Viewer Light is a professional-grade video management software designed for organizations managing Wisenet NVR/DVR systems and Pentabrid recorders. Built on an intuitive interface with flexible multi-monitor support, this software delivers comprehensive live viewing, playback, and event management capabilities across Windows, macOS, and Linux platforms.

Core Features

• Support for up to 3,000 channels with flexible multi-timeline playback (up to 64 simultaneous timelines)
• Multi-monitor display with customizable tab-based layouts and auto-fit grid management
• Live local recording up to 2 hours in MKV and WNM formats
• Advanced PTZ control including pan, tilt, zoom, presets, focus control, swing, group, tour, and trace functions
• Fisheye dewarping with multiple view modes: Original, Single, Quad, and Panorama
• Hardware-accelerated video decoding via NVIDIA CUVID and Intel Quick Sync
• Dual-channel audio support with volume control and two-way audio capabilities

Video & Playback Capabilities

The software supports multiple video codecs (H.265, H.264, MJPEG) and streaming protocols (RTP/RTSP over UDP/TCP/HTTP/HTTPS). Video playback offers variable speed control from 1x to 256x, with intelligent search modes including calendar, timeline, event, AI-driven, and smart search functionality. Users can export up to 24 hours of footage in single or multi-channel formats, with optional encryption and digital signature support for WNM files. Video tiles support flexible aspect ratios (16:9, 4:3) and rotation capabilities (90°, 180°, 270°).

Event Management & Analytics

Comprehensive event rule creation combines triggers, actions, schedules, and durations. The system recognizes device analytics events (motion detection, video analytics including passing/intrusion/loitering detection, tampering, face detection, defocus, fog, and audio detection) plus device system events (power status, fan status, recording status). Event actions include priority alarms, layout triggers, alarm outputs, and email notifications.

Advanced Administration

• LDAP integration and granular user permission management by group, device, and layout
• Remote connectivity via DDNS (up to 128 channels) and P2P protocols
• Device maintenance features: firmware updates, settings backup/restore, password management
• Comprehensive logging with event, system, and audit logs exportable to CSV
• Multi-language support across 23 languages including English, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Russian, and more

Wisenet-Viewer Light represents a mature, feature-rich VMS solution ideal for mid-to-large deployments requiring cross-platform compatibility. The 3,000-channel capacity and advanced codec support provide scalability without licensing constraints. Hardware acceleration ensures efficient performance on modest systems, while support for 23 languages and LDAP authentication makes enterprise integration seamless.

The combination of local backup, multi-timeline synchronization, and granular event management addresses critical security and compliance requirements. Organizations standardized on Wisenet infrastructure will find this software essential for centralized monitoring and forensic investigation workflows.
