    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    I took the latest update and I can now use ONVIF with my Hikvision NVR and it seems to be working great! Way better than just using the RTS feed. Haven't yet tested to see if the motion detection works yet (set it up, but haven't yet gotten an alert) which is the main reason I was hoping for...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Sorry, should have clarified. When I referring to two way audio earlier, I wasn't referring to ONVIF, but the app's ring/answer function. I think we just got our wires crossed. I'm not sure what my video resolution setting is as there's no setting for video quality in the app under the...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Yeah, I've also read that some people had no issues with this doorbell so I assumed that it was my router as well, but I tried a completely different router right out of the box and it still didn't work (though looking back, I'm guessing that they were using iOS devices). When I was setting up...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Yeah, it's probably not the hardware (the physical hardware seems great), but it's likely issues with the software. There's so many issues that I've seen that it seems pretty obvious that they don't really test their software very well. There's WAY too many bugs in their software to be...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    So here's an update to the fiasco I'm having with my LaView Doorbell / review. Overall the hardware install for this doorbell was laughably easy. Everything in this video () right up until 5:46 is a breeze. It's the software configuration that is a nightmare. From 5:46 to 5:52 of the video...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    It's not the wifi or the password. I tried setting up an old wireless router I found with "testwifi" and "wifipassword" as the SSID and password and it still failed in the same way. I am REALLY hoping that it's a hardware/sticker/code issue as I've already paid to send this one back and get a...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    So, I ended up purchasing the LaView rebrand of this doorbell (http://www.amazon.com/dp/B07LFP9C9C) and I'm quite disappointed. I couldn't even set it up. The physical setup was incredibly easy, but when I went through the setup with the app, it just wouldn't complete. When I used the...

    Using RTSP camera on Hikvision DS-7716NI-SP

    It's not ONVIF (which is why I was getting so frustrated that I was going to toss it out the window) so I'm scrambling in the dark with this one. So, from your screenshot, I should just be able to use /videoMain in the Stram Path field, right (if that is indeed the correct URL, but I have no...

    Hik-Connect works fine, except video playback.

    I've been working on getting the Hik-Connect mobile app working and everything seems to be working ok, but I can only view video playback when I'm on my home network (that my Hikvision NVR is on). If I leave the house and use someone else's wifi or 4G, I get a "Video playback failed. Error...

    Using RTSP camera on Hikvision DS-7716NI-SP

    I've been trying to get a Foscam vnt6656g6A40 IP camera to work with a Hikvision NVR. I've never set up a camera using RTSP before (I JUST RECENTLY found out that RTSP is the transmission protocol as I thought before that was ONVIF). I've been trying different combinations of settings in the...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    This one says it's 16V? All I can find are 16V and 24V. I might go with a 16V just to avoid any overpowering issues then.

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Yeah, everywhere I've read has said to upgrade your transformer. I was just going to pick up a 24V 40VA transformer, and I should be good, right? https://www.amazon.ca/Thermostat-Doorbell-Transformer-Compatible-Honeywell/dp/B07L9X9V57/ref=sr_1_1_sspa I don't think you can overdo it can you...

    Ok, I'm sold. I guess I'll just pick whichever one is cheapest ATM.

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Sweet! Thanks for the links. I'll probably pick one of these up, but are you sure they're exactly the same? The LaView looks like it can do thermal imaging?

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Oh jeeze, I've been using the terms incorrectly. I thought ONVIF was the protocol that allows the feed and alerts to be sent to the NVR! D'oh! I thought my NVR didn't support RTSP because I didn't see it in the list of protocols (has ONVIF, a bunch of manufacturers, and a list of custom...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Someone pointed me to this thread as it seems to be THE place to discuss doorbell cameras. I was looking for a decently priced ONVIF doorbell camera (to work with my Hikvision DS-7716NI-SP NVR), but I can't seem to find a good suggestion. I was going to buy this Hikvision version (or one of...

    Non-Hikvision ONVIF Camera not triggering motion detection on DS-7716NI-SP / 16

    Hmm, I'm not sure why I said it was a Foscam, but it's actually a Fleureon. I bought it on Amazon: https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B079242XWX/ I got the N5810HH model, but beware. It says "720p" but it's only a 1MP camera, so the quality is pretty piss-poor. I regret this purchase. For $50, I wish...

    Non-Hikvision ONVIF Camera not triggering motion detection on DS-7716NI-SP / 16

    This was it. I checked the Motion Detection settings through the cameras web interface and it wasn't configured. So I set it up and it appeared to send events to the NVR. I did notice that even though it worked on the NVR, I didn't see any events show up in the ODM events page, but I guess...

    Hikvision clones?

    I appreciate the input on their quality, but they seem to be the only ones that will probably work with my Hikvision NVR (not a lot of other ONVIF doorbell cameras out there, and DoorBird got even worse reviews). Oh, I was expecting the model number or "Hikvision" in the thread title. Wow, you...
