CCTV DVR does not show images on Internet Explorer 9

[Elias Blackman]

In my company, we are using CCTV for security. The images are displayed in Internet Explorer on our PC. We have 5 PCs for this purpose and all were using Internet Explorer 8. Recently we updated to Internet Explorer 9 on our systems with Windows 7 as operating system. After the update, the images stopped displaying on our systems. The page loads properly, the interface too is loaded, but the images don’t load. Every PC has NVidia Graphic card in it. The images are properly displayed on one PC only. It too has Internet Explorer 9 but the OS is Windows Vista. What can be the problem here, is it the OS or the browser that is giving problem?

It can be the problem of compatibility of Internet Explorer with the OS. To match them, you can try activating GPU rendering of the browser. Many times it is disabled by default. Go in the Internet Options under the tools tab. In the Advanced tab, check the option saying, "Use software rendering instead of GPU rendering". It is a well known issue of broken images that is common in Internet Explorer 8 & 9. Another reason for cause of this problem can be the ActiveX incompatibility.
1) Go in the Internet options under tools tab.
2) Under the security tab, click on internet icon.
3) Now click on Custom and enable "Download unsigned ActiveX controls".
This will solve your problem.
