@james-jenner_683177101791235 Have requested this several times. Hoping one day this will be implemented.

Appreciate if you too submit a request on https://support.reolink.com/requests/

@dg Good point especially if the NVR is in remote site. Mem and disk usage will definitely be required too.

@user_745241262715024_745241262715024 No need of any plug in on any of the browsers.

Both the E1 Zoom and E1 Zoom AI have an ethernet port. Opt for the E1 Zoom AI.

@slippinjimmy But if not compatible then they should provide a timeframe when this shall be made available. I can understand your frustration as I am a customer like you and wish certain things are handled better. One thing to remind you is that the Reolink doorbell (till today), it only sends a push message notification to alert of a visitor. It doesn't originate a call. They are trying to have a different tone but having lots of push message notification or you are in a noisy environment this is inadequate. I have requested a SIP call similar to what other suppliers have implemented.

@big_ted They are available....do a search. I would rather concentrate on functionality rather than providing something which is readily available off the shelf.

@user_697868551373008_697868551373008 This is based on PIR which detects the Infrared emitted by the object and it is triggered when the object crosses adjacent slots. If you approach the PIR then it takes time to trigger the PIR until you come within 5 metres when the adjacent slots are nearer. So the best location is that the PIR direction is perpendicular to the direction of motion of the object.

Note that PIR have a short range of max 10m with the sensitivity set to the highest value. And when the camera is IDLE only the PIR circuit is drawing current. When it is triggered it will start the application, start the recording, identifying the object tyoe and triggers the push notification/email. So it takes time. Sometimes as you stated the object is not shown in the video as it has already passed the FOV.

Best option is to have dc powered cameras which are constantly recording and their detection is based on pixel changes. Here you will get recording before the cam was triggered.

@user_736098558853348_736098558853348 Not yet available in Europe. Still waiting to test it out.

@andrew_235108831494334 Yes, I have seen some customers asking for ftping and connecting battery operated cams to NVR. Haven't seen any replies from supplier.

@user_697868551373008_697868551373008 You're welcome. So the best setup would be to have POE AI cameras connected to a POE switch and from the POE switch connect it to your ISP router. Then opt for an NVR and connect the NVR to the router too. Don't forget to read the specs and if you don't understand ask. Never be shy in this world.

@barotropic_491975863558276 Can you delete the camera from the client and add it again?

@crimp-on_62210811129 this is a simple chat amongst the members and if both happen to be on-line at the same time.

@input_343270296944801 This is old. There are newer firmware as can be seen in the unofficial site at https://[censored]/AT0myks/reolink-fw-archive

To ensure you have the newest official firmware email Reolink support.

@js1547_457196343931021 Agree. That's what I used to do when I was a developer. I spent most of the time planning and testing. But today this has changed with most suppliers launching products with inadequate testing.

@nacster_1969 We have requested this for both the client and the firmware. Hope we see this implemented.

@kodu-valvur_731575810646223 They stopped manufacturing Smart WIFI plugs. Only the floodlight is the IoT available from Reolink.

@drealine_329342379503810 It takes some time for the application to show Motion Mark on all the cameras. This happened to me on my Android appl. Maybe you can delete it and add it through UID. Have no idea what's the condition implemented on their application to add this feature for the camera.

@jedi2020_32727772450952 This is what I do too. I download and keep the upgrades.....they are not that big so no space issue.

@bod_747389899809023

@john_350143387672724 Good to hear that. I had to revert back to v8.12.1 as I am not getting the control icons (running on Win 10). I reported it to support.

@jp_303544246644872 I fully agree and I did a similar request in the past. I will inform them again. It would be appreciated if you make a feature request at https://support.reolink.com/hc/en-us/requests/new/
