@kimchigun And if you intend to purchase a cam with tracking capability, note that sometimes the Trackmix and E1 OD will not return to their guard position. I am experiencing this on both models. It seems to be a gearing issue. My personal observation.

@rainman Then you are running on Android 13. Try the last test I proposed. Even though the download center shows your firmware, do email them as they might have never firmware which they haven't yet released. Normally they shall reply within 48 hours.

@email_525317533946102 I suggest you to take it up with their support on support(@)reolink(dot)com

I have E1 OD and Trackmix with auto tracking and sometimes they don't revert to their guard position. So i have to manually set it again. Problem is with the gear mechanism. My solution was to disable autotracking as these are on my remote summer house.

Note that E1s are known to suffer from this problem.

@user_667513685061740_667513685061740 And clips should be sent in high definition.

@kraze_644556700938245 This is fairly easy. Check them out and let me know. If they work you shall receive 200OK ... like SIP for answer message 200OK :). Note that the Escape sequence is only needed for Win.

To enable

curl -s -k -X POST -H "Content-Type : application/json" -d "[{\"cmd\":\"SetNetPort\",\"param\":{\"NetPort\":{\"rtspEnable\": 1}}}]" "https://#IP_CAM/cgi-bin/api.cgi?cmd=SetNetPort&user=#USER&password=#PASSWORD" 

To disable

curl -s -k -X POST -H "Content-Type : application/json" -d "[{\"cmd\":\"SetNetPort\",\"param\":{\"NetPort\":{\"rtspEnable\": 0}}}]" "https://#IP_CAM/cgi-bin/api.cgi?cmd=SetNetPort&user=#USER&password=#PASSWORD" 

@guessy_305491556810936 Data transfer capability depends not only on the medium but more specifically on the source processing power which in this case is the camera. It can be seen from your video that the max data transfer is around 1.7MB/s or 13.6Mbps which is not that slow either. I have high end servers HP G10 and when I transfer a 20G file, the transfer rate is around 40Mbps. The issue I see is that somehow the transfer occasionally stops and this has to be sorted or improved. Maybe in the recent versions they change the mechanism of saving the data to HDD.

I did inform Reolink accordingly.

@user_664640953340025_664640953340025 I have asked for SIP calling on the doorbell camera for quite some time to close the gap with their competitors who already provide. Maybe they can provide the SIP client and then we register with a VOIP service provider.

@big_ted Actually I encountered this myself and did report it to support. Hopefully it will be added in a Win client upgrade. I am still on 4.35.1.1. Will ask for the beta to test it out.

@user_817957934338227_817957934338227 Try to add your request at Reddit Reolink. I don't use Synology.

@houseincloud_668925273444384 uh....this is old. So email Reolink support and tell them to push you the firmware. Please provide the UID, hardware version and your current firmware.

Can you let us know what are the plans for Reolink to introduce geofencing? And how about having a multitude of push notification? Perhaps rich notifications. Your competitors already have them for quite some time. You need to act fast to lead in this market.

@rob_631717169750022 I would leave it BUT I would add the stretch as an option.

@user_822884704698612_822884704698612 I missed this request. If you know some networking protocols, you could have connected a PC to the POE switch and run Wireshark. The phenomenon of reloading or getting powered off in the middle of running can result from the insufficient power supply and poor-quality PoE cables.

@albator_681579469856921 I checked with my friends and they got the same error code. Therefore you are not receiving any push message notification when camera is triggered and you have the push notification enabled. Seems a global issue.

Thanks a lot for confirming.

@newysurfcam_826122846044314 To 90 degrees it's a NO. See https://support.reolink.com/hc/en-us/articles/900000603746-Can-I-Rotate-Camera-Image-90-Degrees/

@arestis_676622578688071

Point 1: Unfortunately none of the Reolink products are able to perform update automatically. Recently they have introduced this auto upgrade on their Windows client and when I tried it it failed. I had to upgrade it manually. I guess they have sorted it out.

Point 2: Have you upgraded the client to 8.8.5? Are you able to connect through the iPhone using both WIFI and Mobile packet data?

Point 3: I did request this too. It would be very handy especially if you have a number of cameras.

Point 4: We have requested Reolink to add STATUS and a schedule for the scene mode. We have also requested the Geofencing but I didn't see any feedback from Reolink if and when this shall be implemented.

@villonesm_80414159839437 Please note that

1. Walking towards the sensing area of a PIR detector may result in later detection as it is possible to walk towards the PIR sectors without crossing them (which is required for detection).

2. Walking across the detection area of a PIR detector results in a rapid detection because multiple sectors are crossed quickly triggering the detector.

@brett-hyink_464759829713142 I have no issue to view my cameras through my 4Gand 5G smartphones. It not only depends on Reolink but there is also the WIFI at home, the copper or fibre path from home to the BB service provider, routing within its IP Core backbone, the interconnect from this ISP to the mobile operator IP backbone, from the mobile operator IP backbone to its Packet core (MME, SGW, PGW), from its Packet core to its Radio network and from the Radio network to your smartphone.

@user_831986059370713_831986059370713 Try to email support on support(@)reolink(.)com. Maybe they will help you on how to source a white doorbell. If you are not in a hurry I will wait for the new one which shall be released shortly. It shall include package detection and have a wider vertical FOV.

@seb_526812765704330 I have informed them too. If I have the source code ( I program in C++) I will also add the schedule when it is triggered by motion or cameras. few lines of coding..... It doesn't make sense to switch on the floodlight at daylight.
