      Can the Reolink NVR be setup to record continuously at one resolution, and change that recording resolution based on a motion event?  OR .. Can it record the substream continuously and then record the main stream on a motion event?

      Also,

      Can you set different retention policies on recording types.  IE - Keep motion flagged events longer than continuous recordings?

      Just trying to think of ways to limit storage space, but yet not rely 100% on motion based recording...

      Thanks,
      Bryan

        Hi bryancx94

        It is not available to record continuously at one resolution and record motion at another so far.

        And I understand your request, but to save storage, there are 4 ways currently:

        1, lower encode bitrate of main stream;

        2, schedule your recording - record only when it is important and necessary for you.;

        3, enable overwrite - replace oldest recordings in NVR by putting new new ones over it;

        4, use eSATA on NVR to add an HDD (4TB maximum) for more storage space.

          5 years later. Just want to follow up on this feature and if it is now available. Is it possible to record the substream continuously and then record the main stream on a motion event?

            The SD card will record the video for mainstream and sub-stream at the same time. We can't set the different resolutions for continuous video and alarm video separately now. Thank you for your feedback.

              @reolink-fiona Thanks for the reply Fiona. I guess this also applies to the NVR then?

                @maximus Yes, you can download the clear or fluent video for the NVR. 🤠
