Is this on Windows 10 or Windows 11?
Have you ever observed memory usage over time with no cameras showing Live View?
(I am doing that on Windows 10 right now, and will report in several hours.)

Just discovered that whereas Reolink Windows Client has been installing in C:\Program Files (x86), this new 8.8.10 beta installed in C:\Program Files. (not x86).
A bit "odd". Also, Reolink continue to be inconsistent in how the installation file is named. (sometimes Capital letters, sometimes lower case, sometimes "." in the number, sometimes not.)

This is probably "not done", but in order to mount an RLC-510WA at the angle I wanted, I had to remove one of the WiFi antennas.
(Just physically unscrewed it.) Camera connects to my WiFi network at 5G anyway. You might want to verify that after screwing on an antenna extension cable, it is still possible to aim the camera as you want.

Do not have an E1 Pro, but this sound not right. I would contact support at reolink.com (we cannot type URLs into this stupid editor).
Explain the problem and ask for a replacement.

Could there be some light source that is confusing the camera? (some light that goes on and off during the night?)

Correct. The specs say "Maximum 64GB SD Card"

Yes, of course. Separate activities.

@nenavodi_648284329952350 I cannot find a "Delete Button" on the Reolink Android app.

• Not for an individual recording
• Not for a Date. (or Date-range)

This is only "my two cents", but the neighbors are not going to be happy with sirens going off every time a cat wanders by your house at night.
No problem with puny spotlights coming on, but sirens? OMG

I would save the sirens for actual forced entry. i.e. entry sensors, glass break sensors, motion detectors, etc. I also went with a monitored security system because all the sirens in the world will not help if I am not home. (Does everybody rush outside when a car alarm starts beeping in your neighborhood? Don't think so.)

Just my opinion.

@joseph-chircop_497308027822318 Very nice. "Test Failed. Unknown Error."

@bakkenkl_524424574742716 I believe all of Reolink's RLC cameras support FTP, which copies motion recording to an FTP server which can be ANYWHERE.
i.e. you can build your own "cloud". Not as slick and fancy, but certainly more secure than having an NVR on the premises.

@pernoi_434276731408615 When I search the internet for "doorbell mounting height", most manufacturers recommend 48 inches (Ring, etc.) One site claimed the "standard" height is from 40 to 48 inches.

My Reolink RLC cameras record both to SD Card and via FTP to a local server. To be honest, I have not experimented with disconnecting the internet WAN connection to see if the local FTP continues.

I tend to believe that the Reolink Cloud Storage of motion captures would be interrupted by Internet outages. (Have not subscribed to the Cloud, sorry.)

I agree. The FTP file appears to be "shorter in length (time)" than the Download File.
The utility Media Info confirms that the files are consistently different. (see mediaArea(dot)net)

I see no valid reason for this to be the case.

On my Windows Client, I do not "Pause", I just click the button "One Frame at a time", which effectively stops motion and does not change the zoom.

@crimp-on_62210811129 Some more detail:

• Have to remember to make sure that the resolution (lower left) is on "Clear".
• I found it easiest to start the recording playing, then
• Use the mouse wheel to zoom
• Then use the mouse to get the part of the picture I wanted to view.
• Then, just before reaching the point where I wanted a Snapshot, click the "One Frame at a time" icon.
• Once the correct spot was reached, click on the Camera icon to take a snapshot.

In addition, I was testing this with a 12MB camera and found that when a face is too far away from the camera, even a 12MB camera will not result in a clear image of someone's face.

Using the Windows Client, when a camera is in Playback mode and showing a recording, I can use the scroll wheel on my mouse to zoom in on the picture, then stop the playback and a Camera icon appears on the screen which can be used to create a "snapshot". (Alternately, I use the Windows "Snip Tool" to grab part of the screen.

I have only RLC cameras. No idea if this works on the PTZ.

The latest firmware for Argus 3 Pro is V3.0.0.1117_2207100.
Have you tried the "Maintenance" menu under "System" in the Windows Client?

There is a web site called APK Mirror that keeps historical copies of Android apps. Of course, you will have to be alert because Google Play will offer to update it (over and over).
For Apple....... (I have no idea)

Surely there is paint left over from the last time the house was painted?
