Hikvision NVR: how to enable motion events in the timeline?

[klasipca]

I didn't try motion event recording, but now that I finally got my hands to I am not having much luck for those events to show up in the web timeline. The rules are enabled and I tried motion/event based recording. This is with any cam including Hikvision. Is there any trick or it's not supported in latest firmware 3.4.2?

@klasipca If you record continuously it will not display events in the web interface or mobile app. You can only view it in the NVR's interface. This is a serious defect in the hikvision NVR.

Yes it is. Although I disabled continuous recording, so wouldn't that enable those events to show up?

If its only recording on motion then the recordings should show up...if not there may be something set incorrectly..

This is what I have set for a Hikvision cam, although I am confused by the difference between Basic Event Motion Detection and Storage Motion/Event.

Looks like I somewhat figured this out. For Hikvision appears to work, for Huisun it has to be using Hikvision profile once again instead of ONVIF.

Found "not so elegant" solution to have both continuous/motion recording. Simply configured two different channels in my NVR for the same camera.

On my 7600NI-I2, i've simply enabled the continuous recording, also enabled the event, for the same channel, and via the event playback


I can switch from continuous to event ... or you meant something other, close to the timeline in the NVR ?
Cheers

In the web/mobile ui you can't have both

You mind telling me how I can setup my hikvision to only record on motion. Right now it's doing continues and motion at the same time. Where can I change it from? The nvr or the cameras and how?

Define the basis for recording under the web GUI storage menu - like this:

What's the difference between motion alarm and just motion

Look carefully - it's actually 'Motion OR Alarm', or 'Motion AND Alarm', or 'Motion' or 'Alarm'.
Presumably you currently have 'Continuous' selected.
