I need someone to explain how this works. I had IVS tripwires on my previous 5442 cameras that would store a snapshot when triggered to my local NAS. In the new GUI on my 54IRs, I can't get this to work. I must be missing something. What I've done so far. I walk through this area and the camera triggers for both tripwire and intrusion, but no snapshots are stored on my NAS. Any thoughts about what I'm missing? Thanks!

1) Set up two IVS rules as shown.

2) Set up Auto Upload for Tripwire and Intrusion events as shown. Clicking "Test" results in "Succeed".

If you don't receive a solution, could you FTP the snapshot to the NAS?
I didn't see a way to do that. Only option for Auto Upload is HTTP unless I'm missing it.

Don't know about in your 541R with new GUI but in my IPC-HDW5442TM-AS the setup for FTP is found under "Storage" => "Destination"
Yes, exactly. I replaced all my 5442s with 54IRs and I'm missing this function. Looking at the documentation, FTP is available for storing alert recordings but not snapshots.

Why quote and thank the bot when it clearly copied word for word the suggestion @TonyR posted?
Sorry about that @TonyR. I'm usually better than that on here and failed to like your previous post. Didn't realize @FletcherHubbards is a bot? I ended up not using FTP. Instead, the storage option from the Picture section in the GUI worked for me.

I have no proof but the account seems to only repeat others
It's quite easy to prove.
Just have a look through the post history and you'll see it pulling lines out of previous comments and reposting it.

Yep, you are so right.
