@reolink-fiona Nice! Now they just need to find a way to accurately have the Windows client actually inform you that there are updates! Often times the client says it is on the latest version when there is an even later version available from the Reolink website.

I noticed that it mentions time-lapse functionality does NOT apply if you use an NVR. That blows.

@crimp-on_62210811129 You are correct, all of the settings are stored either in the cameras themselves or the NVR (if you use an NVR) Using the app on a computer essentially mirrors the functionality of the NVR.

I had a defective camera that Reolink replaced under warranty. When I connected it to the NVR I had the ability to "replace" an existing camera, which is why you see two cameras with the same name (but one is disconnected.)

I never used the Windows or Android app to do this, I used a mouse connected directly to the NVR. And in the NVR's view on a television, there is no name for channel 7 and 8 since no cameras are connected.

I am also running the latest non-beta versions of the Reolink app on my phone and desktop computer as well.

How am I able to delete a Camera name for an unused camera that is no longer connected to channel #7 I do NOT see any camera name when viewing through the NVR directly, but see this camera name displayed on both the Android app as well as my Windows Desktop app. I have attached a picture. Thanks.

@reolink-fiona What do you mean, what are they saving? Why are they concerned about my internet connection? Every time I switch streams I have to manually change to clear viewing mode. This is annoying and defeats the purpose of having cameras with a good resolution such as my Reolink cameras.

@crimp-on_62210811129 It's not camera specific because I have been using these cameras since last year and the previous versions of the Windows client have always opened automatically to clear without having to manually switch to clear later.

Ever since updating my Windows client to version 8.7.1, when I double click a stream to open that particular camera to full-screen view, it is no longer automatically opened to "clear" viewing mode and instead opens by default to "standard" viewing mode. It was convenient to automatically open to "clear" viewing mode with the previous versions of the desktop client but it seems that a change was made. I am not seeing any settings anywhere in regards to if this can be changed.

By contrast, when viewing all of the cameras at once in tiny windows, each of the streams is shown by default in "fluent" viewing mode.

My suggestion would be to give the end-user the ability to have the ability to choose in what viewing mode full-size streams open as or revert back to the previous desktop client of automatically opening to "clear" viewing mode when selecting a particular stream.
