    How do I get smart events to record to the SD card?

    Thanks so much. It's working perfectly now. I think what threw me was the word upload which I'd normally associate with ftp or offsite storage rather than recording to a local memory card!

    How do I get smart events to record to the SD card?

    Oh wow that would probably be it! I spent hours trying to get it to record and now you post that screenshot it's so easy to see lol. I can't test it until the morning but I will and I'll come back and let you know. Thanks!

    How do I get smart events to record to the SD card?

    I have a Hikvision DS-2DE4A425IWG-E 4MP Outdoor PTZ Camera, 25x Zoom, 50m IR with AI Tracking. I'm trying to set up region entrance detection and in the arming schedule there is an option "Recording Linkage" which I have ticked.

    DS-2CD2087G2-L - SD Card - Any Lag

    I'm testing a Reolink bullet camera with an SD card atm and on the local network it's streams fine and plays back as it should. However over the internet, even though the connection is 50Mbps it's next to useless. I'm looking at swapping it with a DS-2CD2087G2-L unit and I was wondering if the...

    Thanks very much for the feedback. I will probably end up going with just the one camera as number plates aren't overly important, but I will have a read regarding ALPR in any case. If I went with the one cam, it sounds like the suggestion is a DS-2CD2342WD-I unit with a 6mm lens. Does that...
