    Help setting up my dahua cameras for IVS recording to SD-Card

    NO, cannot confirm. It often record 300sec (although the event is alot shorter, eg. seconds), unless I miss a parameter/setting I unintentionally made incorrectly.

    Help setting up my dahua cameras for IVS recording to SD-Card

    After short testing period without fine-tuning of the settings (sensitivity and threshold): Recording of desired scenes is being done. However, there is also a lot of undesired/simply unnecessary records, eg. the lights of a car shine into the defined detection zone, when the auomatic door...

    Help setting up my dahua cameras for IVS recording to SD-Card

    Ok, so you are saying: 1. I should not configure any motion detection and leave only SMD enabled? Or, alternatively, 2. I can use MD but leave SMD unconfigured? 1. Meaning, SMD will trigger on valid events on the whole FOV. 2. Meaning, normal motion detection on all valid events, but within MD...

    Help setting up my dahua cameras for IVS recording to SD-Card

    I made following settings which does not lead to the desired results. It records all events, even if only a vehicle passes the scene. Perhaps someone is willing to point me to my mistakes in my settings? Below, the red area is meant to be the only area where events should be triggering the...

    Help setting up my dahua cameras for IVS recording to SD-Card

    Guys, I am neither offending Dahua, nor do I promote Reolink! I bought Dahua for a reason... The records from RL are supposed to demonstrate what I am after (in stand-alone setup with SD card only). There is no reason to argue about RL's night performance or else. It is just a demonstrator, as I...

    Help setting up my dahua cameras for IVS recording to SD-Card

    Yes, it has several triggers, which is fine with me. Trigger is motion detection with little parameters to configure. However, the videos show nicely that the RL cam records an entire event (motion) plus 15 sec. of "post-event recording". I do not care, whether it has one or several event...

    Help setting up my dahua cameras for IVS recording to SD-Card

    We are getting a bit off topic. Any thoughts about my videos and if/how to do with my Dahua's without NVR, VMS, or similar?

    Help setting up my dahua cameras for IVS recording to SD-Card

    Sorry, but a more expensive cam should be capable of the basics, particularly if used stand-alone. Or is Dahua clearly stating "Do not use stand-alone"?

    Reolink RLC-811A Easy configuration of event triggering, 15sec. "Record Delay", that#s it... Result is as expected. Interested in your thoughts.

    1st of, I really appreciate your replies and support! Watching your videos, your cat and you are being tracked (green box around cat/you ). Isn't that being done by your cam or do you have post-processing by another system? Perhaps I am wrong, but my assumption is, that my cams are with similar...

    Help setting up my dahua cameras for IVS recording to SD-Card

    Happy new year to all. @bigredfish thanks for your efforts, example and explanation! All understood, but your example is based on Tripwire as trigger and not intrusion zone. A tripwire is a simple "one time trigger", when passed by the object. This, of course, triggers the recoding routine...

    Help setting up my dahua cameras for IVS recording to SD-Card

    Sorry if I come across as stubborn or not really comprehending what I am told, but "It will only record up to 300 seconds (5minutes) but will be less if no movement." tells me something different. Imagine, I am walking into the intrusion zone, walk around and go out. All within say 20sec. It...

    Help setting up my dahua cameras for IVS recording to SD-Card

    @bigredfish thanks for further explanation! Just to be 110% sure I understood correctly: The cam's are NOT capable of recording an IVS event only as long as present. In other words, an IVS event gets triggered and then recording takes place until the set "Record Delay" time elapses? If so...

    Help setting up my dahua cameras for IVS recording to SD-Card

    Setting IVS "Record Delay" to 300sec. does now always do a 300sec. recording of the event, even though the "real" event is much shorter. Any idea what I have set up incorrectly? Desired behavior still like in post 1 described.

    Help setting up my dahua cameras for IVS recording to SD-Card

    @wittaj and @Chokolinho - Thanks for the fast responses. The limitation on recording to SD-Card is arbitrarily chosen by Dahua, or is there any technical explanation? From marekting perspective I can understand, though... Will be glad to consider any additional advises or hints.
