    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    That's good news for hubitat users. Hopefully the battery will last 9mo to a year before needing replacement.

    You'll have no problems with SmartThings with the Sage Doorbell Sensor DTH as mine worked perfectly paired to my SmartThings hub. I believe hubitat hub works as well but don't have it to test. https://darwinsden.com/sage-doorbell-sensor-review-smartthings-device-handler/

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    In my experience from a couple weeks ago, I can still use the latest Ezviz app to get back to chime configuration IF I delete the doorbell first and re-register it in Ezviz(latest version). I'm guessing once all the re-branded apps update to latest code base like Ezviz did recently, one may not...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Decided to add Alexa voice to my recently installed Sage doorbell sensor. Previously only had push notifications but kids phone didn't have doorbell app so have added Alexa voice notification that visitor has pressed front doorbell via Echo Speaks to the bedroom echo dots/shows. Best $5...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Probably only way they'll bring it back is when customers start to make rumblings to their Tech Support. Better would be include that option in iVMS/Batch Config/Ezviz Studio for power users.

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Yes, it was on the older versions of apps but was removed recently. Their developers probably reviewed the data from the cloud for app users and seeing the chime option would've been setup initially and barely anyone goes back into that setting to upgrade from mechanical->digital or no chime...

    I'm pretty sure you have to go thru the registration process again to get to that option in the newer versions of these apps.

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Yeah, I noticed the slight variances(v4.1.1.0221 shown on my android phones Feb 21, 2020)

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    I see now. I misread Ronin's post thinking it was on the WAN side as well.

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    I started out 3 yrs ago with a username(RCA and Hik). Then when username broke a few years ago between RCA/Hik/Ezviz, I switched to email address that was already registered with my username so that it continues to work across the various apps. Never added phone number to my profile.

    Yeah, WAN is the only interface where I disabled ICMP on all of my routers.

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    I upgraded Ezviz app to 4.1.2 this morning just to play with since I'm on already on 191211 firmware for my RCA HSDB2. A weird behavior happened after I did a test hard reset of doorbell to see if that would enable the disable outdoor doorbell sound feature. During setup, doorbell would speak...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Thanks for the Sage sensor information. I received my Sage doorbell sensor from ebay last night for $5 and have just installed it and paired to SmartThings for push notification. Much cheaper than the other relay/dry contact solutions I was contemplating on later this year.

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Interesting as I've always had ICMP blocked on my numerous routers (previously Netgear R7000, AC68U and currently on my AX88U) without any issues. That includes the past 3 years with RCA wifi doorbells like HSDB1(1.5yrs) and HSDB2(1yr+). I know it uses the standard ports 80, 554, and 8000 and...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    I didn't try rolling back to Laview as I didn't want to push my luck as it already took 30 minutes troubleshooting before I decided to just upgrade to Ezviz 191211 firmware to get it to register successfully. My NVR had to be reconfigured back to record RTSP instead of ONVIF for the doorbell...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Yeah, I'm thinking something will freeze over before they enable the extra features(ONVIF, Alexa for other rebrands, disable outdoor sound for rebrands, etc). I'm only the first report of RCA not receiving the outdoor sound disable feature in 191211 firmware so we'll need a few more users to...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    I have a RCA HSDB2 doorbell running fine since January 2019. I've upgraded it's firmware numerous times to other branded firmware since last Spring as RCA is so lacking in that department. I had been running Laview since October 2019 for the ONVIF feature since Ezviz still doesn't allow ONVIF...

    Yes, I checked under Ezviz, Laview, RCA, Hik-Connect, etc for my RCA HSDB2 doorbell

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Shucks, there goes my theory that the other variants might have slightly different board revisions to allow Alexa/Google and disable outdoor bell sound in latest Ezviz firmware 191211. Ezviz cloud might be blocking certain features by device serial number.

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Thanks for the confirmation that we are still the same hardware between RCA and Ezviz. Must be Ezviz locking out the disable outdoor bell sound feature on my RCA via firmware like they are doing with preventing Alexa/Google.

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Curious to see what the various re-branded doorbells display for your "Panel Version" and "Hardware Version" under device information. My RCA HSDB2 is at "V0" for panel and "0x0" for hardware versions. Even though I've upgraded it to 191211 firmware, I notice the disable outdoor bell sound...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Something weird happened this weekend on the backend cloud service. My RCA HSDB2 doorbell had been running fine since January 2019 but suddenly went into "offline" state in the various mobile apps and on hikcloud website. However, it was still recording to my NVR and I can still view live feed...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    I'm wondering if Hikvision download portal is region specific like Dahua. I would only be able to see older FW files approved for USA since I'm in the USA and others have been able to get around that by using VPN to switch to other regions before they can download the newer files usually in...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Yeah, I had asked Ezviz support a few weeks ago and they said 256GB is now supported but like you I didn't have a 256GB laying around AND I have no plans to upgrade my RCA to Ezviz FW 190211 at this time. Besides, I primarily record to my NVR so 128GB is already plenty of secondary storage for...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    I've had good luck with these Samsung MicroSD cards from Amazon. I've used a 128GB for 13 months now on my RCA HSDB2 doorbell and a 64GB on my previous RCA HSDB1 doorbell for over a year as well. Has anyone tried 256GB microsd card in their doorbell?

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Sorry, don't know if there is snapshot in TinyCam as I didn't get that far into playing with that app before spinning up the RPi3 and never looking back. Hopefully, you'll get a workaround from Imperihome support team on the RTSP issue.

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Maybe send email to Imperihome support to see if there are any plans to allow RTSP without user & pwd in the future if there are no workarounds. I originally started with TinyCam before I moved over to MotionEye on RPi as I preferred hosting my cameras there instead of android phone. I still...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    I host my motioneye on RPi3+B as I had spare one laying around and it's compact but others have installed on more beefier box. I will move it to a RPi4 when I pick up one later this summer. I mainly run SmartThings home automation at my house since it work well with my NVR security, home...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    It will prompt for user & pwd even with image encryption disabled. I never tried using "user: password" in the url as I don't like having that exposed in my URLs but suspect that would work like any other camera stream. I use the streamed URL from my motioneye to not have to enter username &...
