synology

Hi Thanks to this forum, and hours of reading and watching videos,I`m going to upgrade some of the 8 cameras( working well) I have installed . My main concern is that as I am using Synology SS ,so will I be able to install and utilize the functions of a IPC-Color4K-T180 or the SD4A425DB-HNY...

I have a new MOBOTIX camera ( v26 early 2022 ) and a new Synology NAS ( mid 2022 ) and despite all appearances to the good, the MOBOTIX software will not allow search and retrieval of footage from the NAS. The camera says the NAS ( a SMB/CIFS Share ) is usable as a storage target. The NAS is...

Long time lurker, first time poster. I have been using Synology for many years, most recently I am running Synology 920+ NAS with two ip cameras. One camera the new Hikvision DS-2CD2387G2-LU AccuSense camera, and the other is my old Dahua IPC-HDW5231R-ZE. All my hardware is running the latest...

I wish to setup a DS-2CD2347G2-LU with a Synology NAS / Surveillance Station rather than a NVR. Synology SS only supports a generic Hikvision ONVIF profile with no profile for my specific model. In any event the Synology does not support the advanced Accusense alerting features on this camera...

hello, recently installed several of the latest dahua 5442T-ZE varifocal turrets. was looking at some of the footage and am seeing ghosting and what looks like missing frames. you can see this guy get of the car then the footage goes out before you see him walking back... the camera is wired...

Hi folks - Moved into a new house, new opportunity to try out some new cameras. I also switched over to Synology as my NVR from Milestone and wanted to try out some of the new AI cam offerings and the integration. Purchased a IP8M-2696EW-AI to play around with and it integrated with Synology...

I'm trying to avoid making more of a science project out of my security system thank it already is, and so asking for advice in choosing an NVR that will be reasonable to setup and reliable. I have (had) cameras 1, 2 below somewhat workign with Surveillence Station but the settings don't seem...

Hello all. I have read a lot of excellent info in this forum and in wiki, but there are still few things I would like to clarify. If members of this forum could share their answers to my questions below, I would be grateful. I did decide to install several cameras on my house and given my...

Hi everyone! I'm new into the whole IP-camera club and I need your help. I thought it would be easy finding a setup that suited my needs but that was not the case. I think I've settled into buying a Synology NAS and runnig their Surveillance Station software on it. I need a NAS solution at...

hi guys, need some advice. I need to install 4 cameras and have a push notifications if motion is detected after working hours, and need store 7-8 months of footage. all cams will be wired, price is important :)

Ok, I'll preface this with the fact that I do not yet have a NAS drive and have only started researching them. It appears it's a choice between Synology or QNAP and then either a two or four-bay unit. I have only practised with Blue Iris with one camera, getting ready to move into a new house...

Greetings! My wife and I just bought a house. The previous owners had a small business thus had installed some security sensors along with a few cameras. The previous owner used SmartPSS (a windows program to access the cameras through a magic black box in our garage. I call it magic because I...

Hello everone, I am Jim, I recently purchased a Synology DS918 and wanted to utilize surveillance station on the nas for my nvr. I need 3 to 4 cameras. Been looking at the starlight cams, however I was looking for the newbie documentation on the site to increase my knowledge base. I will...

Looking at the Synology DS1019+ NAS to consolidate some of my media and ipcam needs. To pass the wife test, it must be able to continuously record 4 1080p cams with Surveillance Station, play a 4k movie from Plex and record one TV show with HDHomerun record engine. Is it more a CPU thing or...

Hi Guys, noob to the forum im interested in running IP cams on NAS such as Synology surveillance as an alternative to using an NVR Company i work for sells Hikvision/Axis/Bosch/Pelco so im looking to use these Cameras (maybe their NVR's depending on proving the NAS setup as a no deal) ill...

Hello, I bought a Chinese Dahua IPC-HFW5431R-Z that supposedly replaces the IPC-HFW4431R-Z. Some time ago I had tested the IPC-HFW4431R-Z and it was working with Synology SurveillanceStation as generic dahua, including zoom. With the same settings the newer 5431 cannot be zoomed from the...

Have a few Hikvision cameras at my house, they are fed from a NVR NR32P4-4. I am running IVMS-4200 on my Mac computer (although it needs an update from the company to be compatible with the latest macOS, not sure when that will happen). I am trying to find an easily solution to upload my stream...

Hi all, When i configure my kit, almost default except network, admin password and language all is working fine. However, when configuring Surveillance station (Synology 413j) to connect to my VTO2000A as a security cam. which is also working great, when i answer a door call it's not possible...

Have one Synology server and a pair of IP cameras. Reolink and Foscam IP camera starts when it comes motion before cameras. Why are all recorded files between 11mb to 25mb. Why are not the files bigger, in one file? Duration from 15sec to 1min. Why are they not in a file / size? How to get in...

Hello, I'm seeking to install my first ~2 cameras in my house. The first is to be in the nursery, while the other would be in the core of the house (likely in a kitchen, facing inward to view the kitchen and living room area). I have a PoE Ubiquiti 8 port switch that these will run off of...

Team, Camera: 2DS-2CD2135FWD Storage: Synology NAS with Surveillance Station I would like an external application to tell the camera (or surveillance station) to start recording. A smart solution appeared to be to make the Alarm OUTPUT trigger the Alarm INPUT (based on this thread). ALARM...

Hello All, Im from Holland and im automating the house and garden with a Fibaro system and cams. After installing some Foscams I bought one Dahua. bad choice now I needed all new cams for the quality. So I ended up with: Fibaro Home system 2 1x Doorbird Intercom Synology SS for 6 cams 4x...

Dear all, I have a problem with one off my Hikvision camera's. All my internal camera's records fine but the external camera (that uses the internet connection off my neighbour) will not save video to my synology NAS. The strange thing about it that the triggered photo alarm shots with the same...

Currently trying to install a System of 12 VIvotek Cameras with Vast. At the moment i am able to define as a savetarget my synology Nas shared folder. But the cameras semm to only record if VAST is running on a client. Is it impossible to run Vvivotek Cameras with VAST in a setup where...

I've been using the Onvif generic config so far during testing, which works ok but doesn't allow a direct camera stream in liveview or on mobile. It's also not possible to add Onvif cameras in batches, which is a handy feature. I think there are quite a few other settings and options missing as...

I use Synology's Surveillance Station for recording from my two cameras, Hikvision 2142 and the popular Huisun 10x PTZ. Recordings are triggered by motion detection detected by SSS and that works ok. Hik is conneted to SSS with native Hikvision protocol (selected 2132) and the Huisun by ONVIF...

I have 3 Hikvision cameras connected to a Synology NAS and accessible via a Control4 system too. I am planning to add another 10 cameras or so and the Synology Surveillance system will be prohibitively expensive. As a result, I am considering buying a NVR, probably LTS or HikVision. A few...

Hi guys. I am new to the forums and to Hikvision camera's. I was just chasing a little help if possible. I have purchased a DS-2CD2142FWD-IS camera recently and am trying to get it to record directly to my Synology NAS. I have read the forum post "Solving some NFS issues on Hikvision...

I just installed four Hikvision cameras (DS-2CD2032-I) and I noticed that even when they are not recording there is constant network traffic (inbound from cameras) It is about 500kB/s per camera. The motion detection is done by cameras and all notifications are turned off. Any ideas? Here...
