Disappearing Van

Usually it is a crap camera at night that exhibits that. Not naming any cameras LOL.

Could be a graphics driver conflict or a very whacked out setting on the camera like extreme differences in FPS and iframes coupled with H265 or the VMS not liking the codec being used in the camera.

Post your camera settings and let's see if we see something out of whack.

Looks like the van disappear or cloaked only when moving, maybe change video encoding to H.264 if you are using H.265 or H.265+ and disable Smart codec too. And test yourself by running or driving in front of the camera and see if that fix the problem. I really thought it was Reolink camera until you mention Amcrest in the next post.:D
 
Kind of looks like the NOISE REDUCTION GHOSTING issue in @wopi82 post:

 
I may be way off, but it definitely looks as though some chromakey (aka, green screen) is happening with the video.

The most common chromakey colors are green, blue, and red. It's not erasing the color green because the grass and vegetation remain as is. I suspect, some shade of blue or blue-grey is being operated on.

The chromakey effect only appears (disappears?) when the van is at certain angles, and thus, sending a color altered by the sunlight back to the camera.

Check the settings to see how the camera is recording the image. Also, check any software you may be using for post-processing the raw footage.
 
No. The camera setting in the camera. Not bi.
 
I had this exact issue with a problematic Intel driver

Does it go away if you disable hardware acceleration?
 
You need to disable the LSD setting.
