I haven't tried on mine, but looks like it should be possible

Only with recent hardware versions/firmware apparently ("New UI")

Hi. When receiving a notification of movement (person, etc..), what is the expected behaviour when tapping on this notification ?
I thought that automatically the app would send me to the playback of the related event, but for me it's always going to live view, and then I have to sort through events playback.
I can understand it's going to live view when the notification has just been received (less than a minute ago for instance), but on older ones, I was expecting it to go to the corresponding event playback.

I may be wrong, but I thought this was working before, and only started to realise this behaviour recently (maybe since daylight saving time came into the picture end of March in the UK ?)

Regarding the return to monitor point, in the app, when I view the live feed of the trackmix, select PTZ icon at the bottom, then select the little target icon to access Monitor point settings, I have an option "Auto return to Monitor point" and the wait time before doing so.
I guess if it's unticked, the camera would stay on its last position (but I haven't tried it).

Contacted support, and apparently there's no option to do that

During daylight, the flood light doesn't come on when not linked to a camera.
It's just when linking it, the only option available is to react to a detection event (person for instance), regardless of ambient light it seems.
Current firmware for light is 3.0.0.1311_22090741

Hello. I just installed a Flood Light and linked it to my TrackMix camera.
I could create a rule so that the flood light turns on when the camera detects a person, but apparently that also triggers during daylight.
Isn't there a way to create a rule like "IF a person is detected AND the camera is in night mode THEN switch on flood light" ?

I've subscribed to email notifications when a new firmware becomes available for my devices, but I've never received any when something new is out.
Same thing with the "Notify me" when a product becomes available on the store, never received anything, and nothing in Junk mailbox.

Are these actually working ?

On my side I gave up trying to get a PoE version from the UK, been waiting for months, Ethernet cable is ready outside, but impossible to get. Brexit I guess, it's all complicated now..
Luckily I have family in France that I will see in April, so I ordered from the EU site, to be delivered to them (they received it already !), and will take it back to UK in the suitcase.

@ginny
Thank you, very interesting.
I came up to similar conclusions while doing my own setup. I ended up adding a PoE switch to connect all cameras and the NVR, which links back to my main router on a dedicated VLAN.
Definitely noticed some firmware features are more advanced on the cameras directly rather than through NVR

Hello. I just received my E1 Zoom with person/pet detection and auto tracking (very nice piece of kit).
I noticed the tracking seem to be only horizontal and not vertical like the Trackmix.
Is that normal ? If so any plan to have vertical tracking as well in future firmware ?

@joseph-chircop_497308027822318
thank you, yes it should be ok for my setup.
But surely, there's an overall limit to the "25W per port" as I don't believe it will would be able to provide 16x25=400W of power should everything be maxed out. I assume the overall power budget is somewhere around 100W (it's more for curiosity here, in case I have to extend the setup one day)

Any information on the maximum PoE power the RLN16 can provide ?

Hello
I’m planning to build a system with a Trackmix, 2 RLC-811A, a video doorbell, and a floodlight, all connected with PoE to the NVR. Will the PoE budget be enough or should I consider injectors or PoE switch ?

thanks

thanks for the confirmation. I just can't find where on the site to buy individual chime

Hi. Is there a possibility to add a second chime to the video doorbell ? (if I want one downstairs and one upstairs)
Also, can they be bought separately ?

I noticed the same on my cameras.
I thought for a while that the solar panel was always topping up, but then one day the charge level started to go down slowly. When it reached about 75%, I unplugged the solar panel as I wanted to recharge it, and the battery indicator dropped down to about 50%.

With the Argus Pro 3 (or others), it would be nice when receiving a motion notification to be able to have a quick preview of what triggered it with long press on the notification, as it usually takes too long when away from home to wait for the live stream to kick in for a quick check.
Just seeing a still picture for instance, or maybe several (animated preview).

I understand it won't be running on battery as an option ? (I don't have power where the doorbell is)

I totally agree with you, it's not "my solution", it's what I understand Reolink support is telling you, but I may be wrong.

Hi.
When I activate Cloud recording, does that follow the same settings than Camera recording to overwrite clips older than X days, or will I have to manually cleanup at a point ?
Also, is it following the scheduling setup in Camera Recording, or is it always on ?
thanks
