I appreciate that input. I am able to use one way audio and the quality is maybe a little better than walkie talkie. But that quality would be fine to tell the delivery driver to leave the items at the door and to yell at the kids to get off the lawn. :0) My front door is enclosed and the...

Audio doesn't follow a ONVIF standard and two way talk with cameras is mostly like walkie talkie. Best to go with a doorbell camera designed for two-way. A favorite here is the Reolink doorbell thst works with BI, but that is the only device recommended by reolink.

He mentions the camera is a reolink and they are notorious for making the iframe whatever they want. We have seen people post their BI camera status page where the KEY is 0.10 which means if an object is in and out of the field of view in under 10 seconds, it could be missed.

Note as you have synology Nas.. remember they charge per camera after 2 iirc .. so for most of us other options become more cost effective once you consider the capabilities vs price

Welcome @Legolas84 1) "The features I would like are: 4K, input audio, recognition of people, cars, animals, recording only when it detects people, good color night vision considering that each camera will be accompanied by a LED light that will illuminate the area at night when it detects...

...(PoE). I'm new to the topic so I'm trying to learn something that will allow me to make good choices within my budget. I was about to choose Reolink cameras, but reading you I already understood that it would be the first mistake, and perhaps not the only one. So I decided to register and ask...

One would think that changing the RF carrier would result in a hardware revision number change, but not all companies do it right. UniFi stubbornly insists on calling 5 different products by the same name, even though they can be vastly different creatures.

Wonder if there is something ReoLink did to the newer DBs to stop third party Chimes

Thank you! Trying this now . . .

...sure to let folks know on my end to stay away from EmpireTec." I get it you are frustrated, yet .. Wow .. perhaps you should stop by the Reolink reddit or other CCTV forums .. You're now anti-This vendor because a bunch of people who DO NOT work or Represent that vendor posted comments...

Switch to Reolink

An update on my April 11th post: I sent my evidence to CSI in Las Vegas and they were able to work their forensic magic....my posted sign is clearly reflected in the UPS driver's sunglasses, proof that he looked at the sign. Whether or not he read or comprehended is another story....he may be a...

BI may someday, if the developer gets enough requests. I encourage you to email their support and ask for it as I and others have asking that BI support 2-way audio with the Reolink Doorbell.

It is the reolink hardwaired doorbell, I'll link it here: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0B7S1HMPC/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I saved this one from ReoLink, attached is the POE version:

Sorry for the delay. My HN is DB_566128M5MP_P

Yep, just learned about that from another thread. Still wondering why Toons and others are livid about the brand, not just the cameras. Back to the switches...these Reolink switches are not proprietary, are they? They will work with other camera brands, right?

I think it's mainly the cameras and probably the nvrs too. Having said that, they have a doorbell camera that is quite popular on these forums. I use one of the poe sensor lights. No camera, just a sensor light that is poe. That works perfectly fine.

Is it because of the stigma that comes with the brand or is there something wrong with the switch? Is it proprietary?

Ok now I get the picture why to stay away from Reolink cameras. :) But that does not explain why to avoid the brand altogether. Their RLA-PS1 POE switches got good reviews on Amazon. Is there a reason to avoid them too? Or, is it just the cameras?

I have a few other old reolinks, not defending those, moved away a long time ago. Nor the early doorbell firmware. But as I said, the doorbell is solid now on the latest firmware.

We have numerous documentation on issues with Reolink cameras, firmware, as well as the company .. do see the various threads on Reolink where it is shown and documented ..

Please explain what you mean. My 4 Reolinks work fine in Blue Iris.

...set up but show as "not connected" despite having worked previously. The router and the switch have both been power cycled to no avail. A Reolink (RLC-510A) outdoor camera is also connected to this switch and is working without issue in BI (once the camera firmware had been set to allow it...

Wonder if you got a bad Chime. Sorry you are having that much trouble, @fenderman posted it was easy for him...maybe he can Chime in with help for you... https://ipcamtalk.com/threads/new-reolink-wired-poe-doorbell-cam.66073/post-783139

I opened a ticket with Reolink, and Support confirms the bad news (emphasis mine): This isn't even true, as I clearly have paired one doorbell camera with 2 chimes. The problem is that I can't pair one chime with two doorbell cameras.

...red and stops sending video to BI. Maybe you have a older firmware? Bit disappointing to say the least. The Amcrest are PTZ something i don't really need only other thing i can find is reolink cams that are small and claim to have RTSP and work with BI but it seems no one on the forum is a...

...Empitetech T54ir-ze-s3 unless I turn OFF ONVIF login verification on each cam under network settings. No other cams, my hikvision, and reolink doorbell etc have these issues. Not blaming the camera as all is well works fine and it links up just fine to my Hikvision NVR, just need to figure...

...for the reply. My NVR is so old, support old compress, I prefer new machine or maybe NAS as NVR I saw that the Blue Iris is a software, I assume like IVMS? make the same functions? Reolink is out of the game :) Thanks for reply, Your cameras are Dahua original or your brand? didn't catch it :)

I personally try to stay away from clouds. I did use the EZVIZ App when I had my LaView DB (Hik/DB1 variant) but now with ReoLink I do not use their Cloud/App. What drew many of us to the ReoLink is their POE version. No more RF signal issues with WiFi, plus much more secure... The video...
