Did you try setting the bit rate higher? Are you running on 5GHz wifi or 2.4GHz?Was wondering if ya’ll could take a quick look at a sample video from my doorbell and let me know what you think of the video quality. To me, it seems like the bit rate might be a bit too low (because of some of them fuzz), but I wasn’t able to increase that using the Batch tool or iVMS.
You might try turning off WDR, or at least play with it's settings...Looked like it was turning Off/On a few times trying to adjust background lighting...Was wondering if ya’ll could take a quick look at a sample video from my doorbell and let me know what you think of the video quality.

These are my settings too. When I Find/inspect it filled all of this out for me.Nevermind got it to work, make sure you set the ONVIF port to 80 BEFORE clicking Inspect, once that comes back check the Get ONVIF trigger events and Use PullPointSubscription and it started working.

Was your doorbell an Ezviz DB1or one of the doorbell variants? If so, could you do a quick test to see if you can enable Ezviz Skills in Alexa, perform a discovery, see if your doorbell shows up, and test "show xxx(doorbell camera name)? Only way for me on my Echo Show 8 to see live stream was using built-in firefox browser to view the MotionEye feed I had setup for all my tablets which is not as streamlined as being able to speak "show doorbell".You guys made me go test the ONVIF functionality on my QNAP QVR pro and the PIR does not appear to work. Setting up the camera as ONVIF did allow me to access both RTSP streams and gave me the ability to parameter the both of them surprisingly up to full resolution and 30fps and 3mbps.
Still tinkering further with it and managed to make it show on the echo show by getting the QVR pro to proxy the stream and setting up that stream to monocle... Yeah! no more cloud! It is now a local stream.
Okay, not a problem. I've been using local MotionEye solution for over a year now.Mine is an RCA. Going through the alexa skill for discovery would mean that the stream goes through the cloud which is a big no-no for me so I will not do that. That's why I used the monocle skill.
1. Are you using the EZVIZ App?Received my Ezviz db1 today and just went through the setup on my bench. Upgraded to V5.2.4 Build 190708. Now I have a couple of questions.
1. In the app I only get Standard and Hi Def choices, I do not get the Ultra Def.
2. Using the Batch program what password is it looking for? The one on the QR code?
Thanks, Bob

Yes I am using the EZVIZ app, I was in the wrong place on the app. I was in the Function Settings/Lan live view area and it would not allow for Ultra HD. Once I clicked on the icon of the doorbell on the main screen I was in the live view and able to select the Ultra setting.1. Are you using the EZVIZ App?
2. The Verification Code on the back of your Doorbell. It is usually a 6 digit Capital code/password.
This should help:
DOORBELL 101
Wow, I come home from work and thank you...glad to be of help...Hi
I finally got my chime working thanks to David L.
I changed the low voltage transfo with a 16v 30va and everything works perfectly so far.
Now in terms of private storage what do you suggest? I tried to add it to tinycam pro but no success. I guess thats something to do with the firmware ?
Thanks
ONVIF support and reported better stability...Is it recommended to update the V5.2.4 build 190708 Ezviz firmware to Laview Build 190716? Or is the difference just Onvif support?
Glad you found the Ultra HD. The reported problem with changing the password is when you change Apps and re-register to another cloud. I have personally not changed my password so I don't have the answer. You may want to find the App you like first. If you run BI, most here would suggest you upgrade to LaView or Nelly's for the ONFIV integration. Since you are running 190708 build you should not have any problem.Yes I am using the EZVIZ app, I was in the wrong place on the app. I was in the Function Settings/Lan live view area and it would not allow for Ultra HD.

Is there any way to change the password for the camera and not have it bite me in the ass at some point later? I have not tried to add to BI yet, want to wait till I get more comfortable with the camera and get it installed. (Set up on bench now)
I have gone through the 101, great job in putting that together!!
So did you change the trans, yourself? You had to remove the panel right? Good job...Hi
