May be you can use a piece of prism. If you cover the sensor with a thick piece of small transparent acrylic cut like a cube (say, about 5 milimeters thick) and cover the top side (or the side facing to Street light) with electric tape or dark colored nail polish, the remaining faces will still...

In my router, ftp not directly opens to write-permitted directory, but to root. If camera Ftp setup page dont allow setting of initial working directory also, you can't write anything to default directory, "root".

It would be really nice to see realtime super resolution processing. http://photoacute.com/tech/superresolution_faq.html

I think analytic abilities are related to processing power also. What I particularly need is, to be able to adjust motion sensitivity at different levels, for different sections of viewing area.

I am hoping the same. Although I have no idea what else qnap provides to deserve such a big name like "surveillance station", other than realtime monitoring and record viewing.

What do you think about this model? Its in qnap compatibility list, too. But I think its only 2x zoom. DS-2DE2202-DE3/W

I am aware of that, but I simply could not locate another model having all these features, including NAS support, with such a small price.

Ok, instead of suffering continuously, decided to suffer big once and bit the bullet. Ordered a TS-431+, will return 212P. For the camera, I decided to buy the one advised by @spixel above. Cost is about 70-80 range, have all the features I need, but language is chinese :( Is there any custom...

Right, in fact I am adding third NAS, others are mybook Live and Mycloud, at home. I am happy with android app of WD which immediately backups newly captured photo n videos from mobile phone, dont know if qnap have something similar. After reading ton of documents, mind mixed up completely.

Also, I couldn't see NAS compatibility in its pdf brochure, are there any others indications for NAS ability?

Problem is, its price becomes more and more closer to a Laptop, with a freeNAS or something similar :)

Thanks for the detailed answer, Then, do 431+ have the LVM and other "good to have" features?

Wow, I was not aware about the role of ram in Nas. So what would you choose as minimum among qnap models?

...

I somehow managed to delete my last message. Anyway, if we face with chinese letters only in web interface, it might not be that big problem, although I dont know where else chinese appears in normal use.

Ok then how about this one?

Looks promising but I have to be sure about two things, NAS support and IR illumination. This looks like no IR leds..?

Hello all, after spending some time in the forum, It a seemed best to ask for your advise, mainly due to so many camera models. I am planning to use it indoors. Will place it in a central point at home, and with help of PTZ, I am hoping to be able to observe 3 rooms (from doors) and a...

Great to see issue solved. I am using RTSP Player in android. But will test your suggestions also. For email push, Outlook client makes it for hotmail, in android, though dont know for ios. I am currently testing two cameras at the moment, the other one have same black/white interface like...

Well after first failure with WD MyCloud ftp server, I installed old good serv-u ftp server and tested with it. Which proved ftp client of cam is working well, then I moved to hardware server. In my cam, there is no possibility to change initial ftp directory and everything must be created in...

Can you send a screenshot of your camera ftp settings Thats not working? Then I can further comment.

:) It took me two full days to make it working. Currently, when motion alarm triggers, ftp client in the camera snapshots the frames (not video!) to western digital MyCloud network hard disk drive and I am able to see snapshots remotely from android or ios client in phone and I pad. Therefore I...

I some how managed to let camera trigger motions, thanks for the information. I never tried to email, but setup ftp, working well at the moment. From there, I guess email should function also. Can you provide some info?

Thank you very much, I am pretty sure It would take centuries for me to realize this simple barrier. Now it captures from web interface to local HDD, both snapshot and video record buttons work. Only thing remaining is video motion alarm. Here are captures of current settings, not all but...

Enabling or disabling made no difference. Since in the web interface local harddisks are selectable, I am expecting it to record something to selected drives, if it can detect video motion, of course. Is this a wrong assumption and a standalone DVR is must? I could not succeed to get a single...

Hello all, this is my first message here, I've bought a wired IP camera recently (a chinese rebranding) and trying to make most out of it. When I first setup the unit, I somehow succesfully managed to save a screenshot, to the connected laptop. At that time, camera were able to log alarm...
