    Review: EZVIZ DB1C

    OK it looks like a bug - I've just reset the doorbell, but this time have not reset the encryption password. I can now get an RTSP using the original Verification Key, which is 6 alpha characters.

    Can I just check that you're running the same firmware version: v5.3.0 build 201106?

    Review: EZVIZ DB1C

    Thanks - that doesn't work for me in VLC (I just get repeatedly prompted for the user/password). I did notice that the original Verification code was all upper case - 6 characters - but when I changed it I was forced to enter a minimum of 8 characters, including one upper, one lower and one...

    Ezviz DB1C sharing problem and how to find IP address?

    Thanks - I got there by trial and error in the end! No luck getting an RTSP stream though - I've posted a question in the DB1C review thread about that :0(

    Review: EZVIZ DB1C

    I managed to find the option to change the encryption key in the Ezviz app, and have changed it to a new 8-character password. I have confirmed this password by checking "About...Device QR Code...Verification Code" in the app. But I still can't get an RTSP stream in either VLC or Blue Iris (v5)...

    Review: EZVIZ DB1C

    I just installed a new DB1C but can't find the default admin password anywhere (for the RTSP stream). It's not on the sticker on the back of the doorbell, nor anywhere on the box. I bought it in the UK. Does anyone know where I can find the password?

    Ezviz DB1C sharing problem and how to find IP address?

    I’ve just installed a new Ezviz DB1C video doorbell. I have it up and running on my Android phone (Motorola Moto G 5G), and would like to share it with my wife so that she can get full access to the doorbell’s features from her phone. I have installed the Ezviz app on my wife’s phone (a Pixel...

    Blue Iris v5 (demo) not showing correct timestamp for clips recorded using v4

    I'm trying out the demo version of BI v5. When I look at the Clips view in the web UI (ui3,htm) none of my clips (recorded with BI v4) seem to have a valid date stamp - only a time is shown for each clip, The date header on the top left of the window shows a date of January 19th, 1970. If I try...

    Review: EZVIZ DB1C

    Does anyone know if Blue Iris v4 supports RTSP streaming from the DB1C? I have another IP Camera (TP-Link Tapo) which I can stream to VLC but not to Blue Iris v4. BI v5 may well work, but I've never had a reason to upgrade.

    Problems adding TP-Link Tapo C200 to BI 4

    Thanks for the recommendation. That's at the high end of the budget IP cam price range (£75 here in the UK). For comparison, the TP-Link Tapo cost me £20! The Dericam 1080P might be a better bet for me @around £45. I have a few of these installed at my mother's house and they haven't missed a...

    Problems adding TP-Link Tapo C200 to BI 4

    No, I don't know anyone else that has BI. The "VLC-compatible RTSP" would be the only reason to upgrade. Not sure it's worth it though - it would be cheaper to return the Tapo camera to Amazon and buy something else that's compatible with BI v4.

    Problems adding TP-Link Tapo C200 to BI 4

    ...OK I managed to fix the v4 web UI - the v5 install changed the www root folder setting in my v4 setup to point to a folder in the v5 setup. I've changed it back and I have my v4 web UI back. I've also uninstalled the v5 demo as I'm concerned that it's making changes to my v4 setup.

    Problems adding TP-Link Tapo C200 to BI 4

    I just downloaded the v5 demo, even though I didn't see anything on the new feature list that was of any interest to me. When I tried to run it in demo mode it asked me for a user id. I tried the usual admin/admin plus Windows user accounts, but it didn't accept anything. Following a tip on...

    Problems adding TP-Link Tapo C200 to BI 4

    Thanks. So Fing detects the following ports open on the camera: 443 - https 554 - rtsp 1024 - kdm 2020 - xinupageserver I tried using 1024 as the RTP/UDP port number, but still no stream. It seems that I'm not the only one with this problem...

    Problems adding TP-Link Tapo C200 to BI 4

    Thanks for the suggestion. I checked the "Use RTP/UDP ports" option, leaving the port number to the default of 7000, but I still get no video stream. I also tried a port number of 2020 instead of 7000, and that didn't help either.

    Problems with Blurams Smart Video Doorbell

    I found that I never got any ring notifications unless I had the "someone appears" option enabled. Could be coincidence of course, given how flaky it is. I also bought it on Paul Hibbert's recommendation. I can't remember now if he tested the button presses - alot of the reviews focus more on...

    Problems with Blurams Smart Video Doorbell

    Yes they've stopped replying to my emails too. I did dabble with it again yesterday, but the app refused to log me in - I got this message: "We’re sorry, login failed. Please try again. Error code: 283504". I'd reported this problem to Blurams support a month ago but got no response. I rebooted...

    Review: EZVIZ DB1C

    Could anyone comment on how reliably the DB1C sends notifications when someone actually presses the doorbell (when using the EZViz app)? Does every press of the doorbell get pushed to your phone, or are there many missed events?

    Dec 2020 - Comparison of RTSP Doorbells

    Could anyone with a DB1C tell me how reliable the notifications are when someone actually presses the doorbell? I currently have the Blurams video doorbell and I get notified maybe one in every 10 times that the doorbell is pressed.

    Review: EZVIZ DB1C

    What external service(s) does the DB1C rely on for sending notifications to Android phones? I just got a Blurams doorbell which never notifies me when someone actually presses the doorbell, and the manufacturer is pointing the finger at the Google push server, so I want to avoid anything that...
