    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    I wonder if Ezviz changed something on the backend to affect their newer DB1 units. Maybe something similar to them locking out RCA units from tapping into their Alexa gateway because RCA probably didn't want to share that cost...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Ditto, my chime is still working fine since January on my RCA HSDB2 doorbell variant running firmware=> Ezviz V5.2.4 build 191211. Also, my sage doorbell sensor has been working fine with my SmartThings home automation system for past couple of months.

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    They did the same thing almost 2yrs ago unlinking backend accounts between RCA/LaView and Hikvision/Ezviz/etc. I think it has to do more with extra costs by preventing folks from traversing their Cloud Services gateway to Amazon Alexa/Google for free. My $0.02

    I never found a way to get it working as Honeywell locked it down to just their own cameras it seems like...

    I also still use one of the older versions of iVMS-4200 for management of Doorbell.

    Awesome, glad my workaround resolved it for you. I ran into your situation when the Apps were upgraded to remove Chime selection post initial setup and I had to figure this workaround out by trial and error. It was hard going at first because I only deleted from my primary Hikvision App/Cloud...

    Have you tried removing the doorbell from you Ezviz App after resetting it? It should allow you to select chime mode after you delete the doorbell from your cloud account and re-add it in any of the apps.

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Yep, I've been running SmartThings with my Vista-20P system for 3.5yrs now using the Honeywell Vista 20P DTH via Envisalink EVL-4 IP module and use HousePanel for Home Automation dashboard as it allows to display RTSP streams for my HSDB2 doorbell and my other Dahua security cameras. I went...

    Here's the US download for Hikvision's HS-HD1 FW version 5.2.4 200321 file that I pulled down for future use whenever I have the itch to upgrade from build 191211. https://us.hikvision.com/sites/default/files/firmware/ds-hd1_5.2.4_200321_na.zip

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    I couldn't get it to work with my Vista-20P system when I tried back 1.5yrs ago. I can't even get it to show live feed on my two Tuxedo Touch TUXWIFIW touchscreens.

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    I haven't used Ezviz app in a while since I record to my NVR. In the past when I was traveling and have issues with VPN back to my NVR, I would use Ezviz app to share by 1) select PIR recorded video you are interested in 2) click on Playback button 3) click on Video Camera icon to save the...

    For folks running Samsung SmartThings eco, here's example of my dashboard on wall mounted Home Automation Touchscreen Tablets(ipad, win10, android) at entry/exit doors and Echo Show 8 devices in my house. I use the customizable HousePanel dashboard. First one is main page with doorbell live...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Never tried that as I don't record to my Tinycam and only record to my NVR for all my security cameras and doorbell. If you experience latency, then it may be your network as I can view DB recordings even with the other 2-3 streams present.

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    I almost went without wifi doorbell a couple years ago as well but glad I stuck with it to complement my front porch POE camera. Having a doorbell camera that is closer to face height view and 2-way video answering worked well for WAF. Also, recordings to it's 128GB microSD has been helpful in...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Totally agree! In early 2019, I was happy to get just one 24x7 recording to NVR plus one 24x7 RTSP to my home automation tablets before hitting perf issues when kids were playing Xbox/streaming/etc. After upgrading my Asus AC86U to AX88U router in late 2019 and some networking tweaks, I'm...
