    Why do Amazon delivery drivers lie?

    Only Amazon or DPD seem to do this, drives me nuts. A few years back Amazon left some parcels, even though my instructions are to a neighbour or in a safe place (bin shed) but they just leave them on the doorstep. This caught the eye of a burglar who took it as nobody being home and jumped our...

    Patchy wifi on one camera

    Hi all I have an Imou system with a mix of wifi and poe cameras. first issue is a wifi that as you can see has spells of just losing connection. After this photo it was fine throughout the night. The mesh ap is about 5metres away but had a brick wall to the side of the camera to contend with...

    Image corruption with QVR Pro on 1 camera only.

    "Their next suggestion is to upgrade the firmware. When doing so there can be the risk of bricking the cam but IMO an image with that corruption is useless. Besides if it bricks, you've only lost a Reolink camera that you can replace with a Dahua or (Loryta or Amcrest, both OEM'd by Dahua) or...

    Image corruption with QVR Pro on 1 camera only.

    Thanks was trying all of that but I noticed that in QVR Pro camera settings it was using about 4Mbps , i reduced down to 2048 and 10 fps and now its better, still occasional corruption but less. If i went to a lower resolution that cured it. But rather have the resolution and the occasional glitch.

    Image corruption with QVR Pro on 1 camera only.

    Hey All I have 8 cameras connected to QVR Pro either WIFI or CAT 6/7 wired. All run fine apart from a Wired Reolink camera that I'm getting corrupted frames, just a small section. Heres a screen grab from the top of one frame. The image is fine on the cameras own settings page and also i...

    Initial review of the DS-2CD2347G2-L(U) ColorVu 2.0 IP camera.

    In the image menu there is a scene type pulldown menu for daylight , low light ,etc you can adjust them accordingly. Then the way I did it was to create a month schedule and change between daylight and then low light during ours of daylight and night.

    HikConnect only playsback video at certain times, bitrate related?

    Yes its definitely bitrate related, If i set the camera to record to sd using the substreams or lower mainstream bitrate it playsback fine. I`ve tried both ivms-4200 (windows) and the network camera direct ip and they playback fine at higher bitrate. Could it be that its just how the android...

    HikConnect only playsback video at certain times, bitrate related?

    Hi All Just setup a hikvision turret cam with hikconnect (android), and for some strange reason it seems to playback over the hours of darkness, during the day it pretty much wont playback. Think it could be bitrate related, i have it set to 3072 bitrate and if i lower it to about 1024 it seems...

    New to Hikvision have a few issues (connect app, motion detection)

    Thanks for the info. The synology surveillance station looks more involved than QVR on my QNAP. So is also that detection done in synology setup and not using the built in Hikvision motion detection?

    New to Hikvision have a few issues (connect app, motion detection)

    Thanks. The issue with Hik Connect is its using its own motion detection for alerts. If i disable it then i`m not getting any human alerts from the camera. I guess i could try clearing the motion detection area on the app and see if it still lets camera detection alerts come through.

    Initial review of the DS-2CD2347G2-L(U) ColorVu 2.0 IP camera.

    You need the DS-2CD2346G2-ISU/SL version of the camera. Be careful of other versions its the ISU/SL for warning light and voice.

    Nest doorbell software equivalent for ip cam

    ok will give it a go, but will it be any better than a Nas drive with survellience station? maybe I'll try reducing the recording bandwidth and see if that helps.
