    PC/NVR for multiple cameras?

    Hi @TechieNI Reolink and Wyze cameras .. if you can get both to produce an RTSP stream, then I would look for a 3rd party VMS on an PC solution .. note, not all Reolink cameras are able to produce a proper RTSP stream for 3rd party VMS solutions .. so double check the Reolink camera models...

    BI misses OnVif events from ReoLink

    It is a known fact that Reolink doesn't play well with BI. Plus they don't completely follow the ONVIF standard. There are videos here of someone pulling their car into the garage and the reolink camera completely missed it. This was a screenshot of a member here where they had set Reolink...

    New Reolink Wired POE Doorbell Cam ?

    I really want to help those with their WiFi issues, some say it is only the DB that gives them problems. I have been watching this for years, when I hear they have their AP right next to the DB and still have issues I just am at a lost, as they are. RF Interference? Bad DB? I don't know, I...

    Dahua POA cctv cameras in Reolink POE nvr

    You could encounter problems triggering recordings based on IVS rules (line crossing, object detection, person detection). It would trigger on basic motion but IVS is a gamble. Better to add the doorbell to the Dahua NVR. It's also possible Reolink's person detection won't trigger the Dahua...

    Send Pushover notifications with pictures and hyperlinks

    Or get better cameras LOL. Blue Iris is great and works with many different camera brands, but there are some that force people into their own system like Ring, Nest, Arlo, Blink, etc. and then some like Reolink that they kinda work outside of their platform, but not really. When push comes to...

    Send Pushover notifications with pictures and hyperlinks

    The issue is Reolinks will change it to whatever TF they want all in the effort of producing a nice bright static image. We have people here that Reolink with BI missed them pulling their car into their garage. Look at your Cameras Status page from BI that shows your KEY, similar to this...

    Send Pushover notifications with pictures and hyperlinks

    You are doing something wrong...the script works on all versions of BI... The help file updates notes explains why certain features and functions were moved around..its only mind numbing if you believe it was done arbitrarily.. Reolink cameras that have no control over the iframe interval in...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    I would look into moving on to the ReoLink DB. Alot of users here have. https://ipcamtalk.com/threads/new-reolink-wired-poe-doorbell-cam.66073/ Only advise I can say is try going back to a firmware that worked.

    Issue with two way talk

    Hello, I'm in the process of looking for a better video doorbell for my house. I currently use a Google nest, but lately it's had lots of problems. Mainly that when someone rings the bell and I open the app, the video freezes and I can't talk to them or hear them. I thought the nest was just...

    Reolink Cameras

    Yes @stoneyc please post an example of what you view as decent low light image and video captures with the reolink cameras you have. Definitely need to see a good moving suspect or subject in low light. So far Reolink cameras in general I have seen very poor low light image captures. I've...

    New Reolink Wired POE Doorbell Cam ?

    Are all the cams recording 24/7? If so, and you NEVER get ANY dropouts or skips I'd head for Las Vegas or Atlantic City with some cash and place a few bets....:cool:

    New Reolink Wired POE Doorbell Cam ?

    Hmmm.. I have 67 household wifi devices along with the Reolink doorbell going to my 5 year old Netgear 2.4g router all on the same SSID and zero problems with the doorbell feed running on Blue Iris along with 17 other IP cameras also :) . Granted most are light switch's and outlets , printers...

    DMSS iOS Application - V1.99.620 - Intrusion Alarm Push Notifications

    Not entirely accurate, Dahua is professional class security surveillance equipment like HikVision, Axis, Avigilon etc. Although Dahua and HikVision have some consumer lines of products, they cannot be compared to Reolink or Ring, as Reolink and Ring are consumer / DIY grade products and do not...

    DMSS iOS Application - V1.99.620 - Intrusion Alarm Push Notifications

    Dahua App will be always a pain in the ass. Mostly updates will make it worse. This is known for years and here are several threads about this. Dahua will never be as smart as Ring, Reolink or even Hikvision. They dont care, dont listen and give a shit on consumers. For professional installers...

    New Reolink Wired POE Doorbell Cam ?

    When we moved in July it has taken all these months for me to get the DB installed and BI back online at our new home. Anyway, I ran the original firmware on the DB with no problems. I just installed Reolink Discovery in Home Assistant since JimStar is no longer supporting his Reolink project...

    Totally confused about FPS/key

    Make both main and sub H264. Probably not the problem, but having them different causes other problems.

    Error connecting Reolink RLC-810a to Blue Iris

    Thank you for the information. The reason I have a Reolink is that I thought I saw them recommended on this site. I am more than willing to send it back and get something else. I have to have a PoE camera, preferably a bullet, that I can connect via a powerline adapter; cannot run ethernet and...

    Error connecting Reolink RLC-810a to Blue Iris

    First, you can list the private LAN IP addresses as it does not tell anyone anything - they are the same as everyone else. The IP address of your service provider for your WAN is what you don't provide...Everything on the inside past the modem is fine to put out. Everything on the inside, the...

    Triggering a Group Camera with AI Enabled

    It is well known that BI and Reolinks do not work well together, but the same principles applies for almost any low end consumer grade camera. It is just Reolinks is one of the more consumer end cameras people buy and come to this site as to why it is pointed out often about. I have a cheapo...

    Amcrest NV4116E-A2 keeps losing Reolink Duo 2 stream

    Gotcha. Weill we will see tomorrow how it does. I think I have a spart POE switch. I need to check tonight and see what kind of power it puts out.Hopefully 15w per port and I will be ok. I think I have the swithc maxed out where this cable will need to run, so I will either need to piggyback the...

    Amcrest NV4116E-A2 keeps losing Reolink Duo 2 stream

    If I remember correctly the Reolink retained its correct aspect ratio. The AMcrest NVR, which I initially had and sent back when I move to BI supported Amcrest cameras with differing aspect ratios. Thus i was equally able to display the Duo2 correctly. I have to say that the Amcrest NVR did...

    Best 4k Colour Night Vision Turret Camera

    Welcome! Glad you didn't fall for the Reolinks, but you still have some to learn. 4MP is the sweet spot for surveillance cameras. The problem folks are finding out with the 4K full color type cameras is that the area of focus is a small area and anything before and after the distance is...

    Newbie Questions

    Hi @mike32162 So the questions are: 1) Build. It's going in the home entertainment cabinet. Silence (and obviously performance) are high priorities. Am I better off with an 8th gen i7-8700 optiplex SFF or a newer mini-pc type (like an 11th gen but mobile type chip)? In either case, I plan on...

    Newbie Questions

    True it has the larger sensor, but their firmware/algorithm is still favoring a bright static image. While it is on the proper MP/sensor ratio (4MP on a 1/1.8" sensor) with a large f1.0 aperture, at $100 it would be a steal if it worked like other full color cameras. Sadly, it appears to...

    I am redoing my parents house. They have an old analogue system which has about bit the dust. After searching for a DVR (now NVR) replacement, i discovered the various issues of mix and match problems, expense, etc... and think Blue Iris is a better solution. That will let me RDP into the box to...

    How to back up motion detection events to a cloud?

    I understand. I wanted to buy either dahua or reolink NVR but from what I've heard they don't work with reolink (or dahua) cameras. The main thing I would want from NVR is storage though. Would this also present problems? What about just saving recordings to my pc (or an external hard drive...

    Reolink Trackmix PoE - Still Problematic?
