    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    The one I changed it to. For clarification, the password I saved on the doorbell was saved with capslock on. I was probably using capslock when I was trying to re-enter the original password.

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Excellent ideas guys! So, I kept getting the password errors with VLC so I was looking around the options in iVMS-4200 (We really need a better name for that software lol) and tried exporting the configuration. I opened the file in Notepad++ and the passwords were stored in plain text...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    I'm not having any luck... I know I changed passwords and did the activate stuff when I originally got this up and running. I can access the camera with the EZVIZ just fine. The alerts and everything work as expected. Right now, recorded video is going to their cloud. I haven't tried changing...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    I see the quote now. Unfortunately, I originally set mine up before that was known. I was having issues originally with getting into the camera using the available tools. My doorbell camera has been working fine. I just got around to installing the new lorex system I bought and was adding the...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    I believe I changed the password at one point. I've overwritten the password using IVMS-4200. Still not getting anywhere. I have the HTTP port set to 80 and RTSP to 554. I'm not sure why it isn't taking.....

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Has anyone been able to connect this to an NVR? I'm trying to connect mine to a free channel on my Lorex NVR. It shows up when I scan for cameras but it keeps telling me the username/password is wrong.

    Neighborhood camera privacy concerns and common courtesy

    Hi all, On my neighborhood Facebook group, someone made the following post asking neighbors to change their camera view from capturing their 2nd story. This is not my camera nor am I in any of the captured houses. I've shared footage from my cameras a few times when we had criminal activity in...

    I appreciate you helping like you have. Can't say thanks enough. Compiling the information is priceless. Trying to parse it all together from 70+ pages would be tough. Old school forums like this are what I like.

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Hi David. I appreciate all of the help you and Murphy's Law have been providing. I ran into a few hiccups but I finally got rid of the logo. There was something screwy with how my batch config tool installed. After reinstalling, I could login to the camera. For your 101, I would suggest listing...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    I was originally only able to login via iVMS-4200. I was getting password errors with the Batch Config tool. I uninstalled the Batch tool and reinstalled. This time, I was able to add the camera to the section above using the password I created at another point. So, now I can login with both...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Can anyone help me with the issues with the batch tool? I have no idea why I can't login to the camera when I can login with iVMS-4200 just fine. I can't get to the logo setting in the iVMS-4200 software. Edit: For anyone reading this, I had to uninstall the batch tool and reinstall. Then I was...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    I cannot login to the camera with the Batch tool but I can login with iVMS-4200. Where is the logo option in iVMS-4200? I keep getting a password error on in the Batch tool. I've tried the password I created and the password that came on the back of the camera. For the iVMS-4200 tool, it lets me...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Gah! I'm trying to flash the new firmware and I am getting nowhere in either program recommended. I was asked to Active it in iVMS, which I did. Both programs are telling me the device is offline but the doorbell is up and running. What am I doing wrong? Edit. Ok, I got further using the legacy...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    All installed! Thank you guys! I still need to flash the firmware. I need to change the settings but I'm really impressed with this doorbell camera. My chime makes a weird sound like it is struggling after I ring the bell. I have a more powerful transformer coming via Amazon tomorrow...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    I'm still working on my install. Lol. I took part of my storm door off. Whoever installed the original doorbell or the storm door, sliced open the wire and had it pinched between the door and some trim work. I used some heat shrink wrap to fix it and removed some trim material to avoid the...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Hi guys, I'm at the part where the instructions tell me to connect the wires to the back of the doorbell and then wirenut them to the existing doorbell wire. I don't have a big hole drilled out in my doorway to stuff the wire nuts and wire into. Can I just connect the wire to the back of my...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Perfect! Thanks so much! If I do find I need the 16v 30va, is it just plug and play with the transformer (ie, connection same wires to like connection points and no additional parts needed)?

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Ahhhh ok. This is helpful. Power kit it is then. Should I get a transformer that allows more power than what I currently have now too? I realize I could just plug it in an try it, but I don't want to burn it out or get poor performance by under/over powering it.

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    I'm not sure what the power kit is doing... I understand it works in conjunction with a button push. But do you (or anyone else) recommend testing the camera with or without the power kit installed? I'm curious to know what the power kit is doing. The instructions don't explain.

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Hi all, I've read the last 10 or so pages. I bought the EZVIZ DB1 and I am ready to install it. I'm stuck on the power issue. My home was built a little over 2 years ago. I found the transformer and it is a NuTone C905 Transformer which is rated at 16-volt, 10VA. I read comments on here that...

    Looking into Blue Iris...

    Hi all, I'm on my second Lorex system from Costco. I returned the first one and I purchased this: Lorex 8-Channel 4K NVR Security System with 2TB HDD and 8 4K Cameras. I currently have 6 of the cameras setup outside and will soon be running more ethernet to install a few more outdoor cameras. I...

    New Lorex system at Costco - What do you guys think?

    Good catch. The PDF linked to on the Costco website matches the one I linked to. The text on the Costco webpage is different though as you pointed out. I haven't opened up the box yet. I came here to see if anyone had tried this system out yet. Image Sensor Type: 4K (8MP), 1/2” CMOS Image...

    New Lorex system at Costco - What do you guys think?

    I was just in my local Costco and saw they have a new Lorex system they are selling. I picked up a kit to possible replace the Lorex system I got from Costco a year or 2 ago. The system isn't listed on the US Costco website but is on the Canadian one. It was $799.99 plus tax in store...

    We had a thief.. And now I want a better system

    99.99% of the time we do. This was a fluke. We have a lot going on right now causing stress. I'm not entirely certain that they weren't locked and he didn't have a device to unlock them. If we left them unlocked, that's our mistake and shouldn't happen again.

    We had a thief.. And now I want a better system

    This happened in the early morning on Wednesday. Unfortunately, the video is too grainy to make an ID. Now I am looking to add/replace the cameras/system with more and better components. I am a newbie and this is the first system I've had.

    New member thanks to Mat200

    I have installed all 6 cameras. I wish these cameras had a wider field of view. I can't complain for an all in one system. Everything was running well until I needed to restart my router. Now I can't access my system from my phone. I know the problem lies somewhere in the settings but I haven't...

    New member thanks to Mat200

    I just had a great epiphany this morning on the drive into work. The area under our morning room is unfinished. That is also where I keep the NVR. It would be simple to run 2 cables inside and out of the house at the preferred heights you guys shared. I can leave the other cameras where they are...
