Nope, I'm not having that issue/problem. Recording to DVR, no MicroSD card.

Updated both firmware and PTZ software today. Nothing to report yet. Will keep you updated

Which settings did you do to make you more optimistic about the autotracking? Care to share? And yeah, i have also that creepy squeaking sound when it follows me. It almost sounds like it's doing it under protest ;-)

I experience the same problem. I setup IVS and IVS works. I see that IVS is triggered, but it does not show up on the playback line. I only see the green (continuous recording) line and no orange recording line. Did you find a solution for this issue yet? I have a Dahua cam and Dahua NVR.

You have to set it up as ONVIF camera in the Hik NVR and use port 80 to access it. Then it's straight forward from there.

I can confirm. I have my SD59225-HNI connected to my Hikvision NVR. But i agree with Looney that the autotracking is done by the camera, not the NVR

Yeah, that was with one of the other boxes that i'm not using right now. It mistracked too often.

No idea if that will work. You should just experiment with that. I'm mostly using 1 intrusion box, like in the screenshot. The other boxes are not very accurate, so i hardly ever use them.

I'm using 25 fps and CBR at 8192 kbps. If i set it to 30 fps the camera also acts like it's possessed sometimes. I found that 25 fps is the highest that i can get a reasonable tracking with.

Sample: Autotracking in full color under low (street)light conditions. I'm using two intrusion boxes. One across the road and one across the sidewalk. This is the result. Any comments? Both recordings are at 1080p, so best to set Youtube at that resolution. I have the time for tracking set...

It's either B/W or colour. IR doesn't work in colour mode. I bought this Starlight camera so i can keep it at full colour at all times. My area is reasonably covered with streetlights. Besides my camera is there mostly for identification purposes (skin tone, hair colour, clothing, shoes, etc)...

I have never been a fan of B/W, so i never use it. But i tried what you asked: IR with smart-IR doesn't give me a solid focus at 20-25x. When i switch to colour i get a reasonably quick focus lock.

This firmware is definitely the best i've seen so far. The following issues (at least what i experienced) seem to be resolved: 1. serious video/network lag with higher than 20 fps and higher than 6K bitrate -> I can now set it to 25 FPS at 8192 kbps again with no noticable lag 2. focussing is...
