    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    I only used the existing top screw hole on the POPMAS mount with the top screw hole of the doorbell mount. This put both mounts close to flush on the top. I then used a small piece of 3M gray double sided tape to hold the bottom. I had this tape on hand, it is made to hold auto body parts...

    I don't think you will be able to drill just one new hole, they would need to be spaced further apart. You would have to drill two new holes right on the edge of the mount, it is about 4 3/4 inches long with rounded edges. I have just the top screw in with double sided gray 3m tape holding it on.

    Maybe also try LaView One app, I think they use different servers. I always had to reset my device when switching between the two (LaView & EzVIZ).

    I bought the Armcrest branded version from Amazon.

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    I currently have the One Halo connected via ONVIF. I am new to Blue Iris (installed 4 days ago) so can't comment too much on feature set. I was super easy to add and I have not had any issues.

    I am looking to do the same thing with Google Home Hub. This is the best write-up I have found to convert from rtsp to a google hub viewable format. : I haven't had the time to give it a try yet, you may able to just use the conversion pieces. Also not sure if the HLS format will work with...

    Any good tug on mine would probably pull the plastic anchors out of the brick. I have burnt adobe, not known for its hardness.

    I only have one bolt going through the La View plate to the mount supplemented with foam double sided tape. It has been mounted this way for about 5 months with no issues. I am sure you could make an adapter plate if you wanted something a little more secure. I just took the lazy way out.

    I am using a 60 degree mount I originally bought for my Nest Hello on Amazon. I was able to mount the La View on it with no issues. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07DDBQD69/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

    I can confirm the RCA plate fits the the La View (Thanks Ford!). There is an indention behind the RCA plate that accommodates the round La View lens. The pill shape opening of the RCA fits flush against the La View lens.

    I was able to connect to both iVMS and LaView Net. iVMS would not let me edit settings, LaView Net allowed me to make changes.

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    The only alarm type I have been able to trigger successfully is a PIR Event. It has a delay of 5-10 minutes for me, so it is not very useful to let you know when someone is at the door. I have the PIR event turn on/turn purple a SmartLife controlled bulb. Not sure if the delay is on Ezviz...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    I think my issue was caused by jumping back and fourth between the LaView and EZVIZ apps. Once I deleted the device from EZVIZ it asked me to wait 10 minutes before re-adding the device. Once added back, all alerts were received and IFTTT started working. Anyone know if the doorbell push can be...

    I might have a way to remove the RCA logo from the video output. I was able to remove the EZVIZ logo from a MiniO 1080p in iVMS-4200. Under Image -> Video Display, I then un-check Enable Text Overlay box and closed the dialog box without selecting a file. Logo is now gone. I am not sure the...

    The delay is 1/2 second at most for doorbell push to notification. There is also a slight delay under 1/2 second for 2-way communication. There was more like a second or two for 2-way communication on the Nest Hello I have.

    IFTTT is not included on the "More" screen. I searched the app and cant find it anywhere. I am running Google Mini's throughout the hose for my "chime". Nest would announce someone is at the front door so I was hoping to use IFTTT if they had a trigger for doorbell button push.

    I have a LaView Halo so it may be a little different with the RCA. I know LaView One will not work with Google Home Hub. It states it has Alexa support but I don't have a device to test with. I currently have a Fire Tablet with LaView One installed. It is mounted to the wall, next to a USB...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    I installed the the LaView last night and initial impressions are good. I am mostly comparing it to Nest Hello that was up and I have to say the image is a lot better than the Nest. I attached a few images comparing the different lighting options and a couple images from the Nest.
