New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera
Can you foresee an automation that can show the front door camera on my Google nest hub using onvif/door bell button press and home assistant(ha onvif)? Probably sometime soon. You could push the DB video to a touchscreen running HA in the browser via ONVIF or MQTT event. Here many many years... -

Whatever you decide to do first thing is to have admin access to the device and utilize the Hikvision Batch configuration program. I utilize an older version of this program as the newer version did not work correctly with my Nelly to Hikvision firmware device. I am running Batch Configuration... -

No. Just removing the camera from the cloud app. IE: just log on to the cloud app with your phone or PC and remove the camera. -
New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera
I can still access it remotely on my phone. Guessing.... Locally on the cellular network would be because your router has "hair pinning" (IE: NAT Reflection) enabled and you are still using the mobile app. Remove the video doorbell from the cloud app. -

What are you using as an external PIR? I am using a Sonoff 433Mhz outdoor PIR connected to a Tamota upgraded Sonoff 433Mhz wireless hub speaking MQTT. This is a switch of hardwired internal / external PIRs to wireless and MQTT PIRs. -

Computer monitor vs tv + remote viewing
Here disabled the new LCDs from the cabled / wireless network and only utilize KODI. That said I have a Kodi plugin that pops up a video display overlay from the outside IP cameras.

Here using a current relay to drive the automation stuff. I had to tweak it a bit. This is an autonomously utilized device for a zone contact on the alarm panel. The current sensor has a pot on it to adjust the sensitivity. I was originally using an Elk-930 for the alarm contact and that... -

That should work fine. Here still purchase from big box hardware stores. (Menards, Lowes and Home Depot). I like Amazon even though they priced higher and there no questions return policy of 30 days. IE: purchased the Arris SB8200 on Amazon cuz I wanted to go to Gb here but it never worked... -

What transformer did your purchase? Do you have a link for it? Personally I liked the way the Ring Doorbell had a battery and worked fine with any transformer. I did not like the cloud thing for house #1. I did install the Ring alarm system / with doorbell now in house #2 and can manage it... -
New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera
My real concern is that there is an issue with the wiring since the voltage drop only occurs on the circuit with the db1 and not on the button circuit or the common to trans leads. It's as if the wiring can't support the current not that the transformer is sagging voltage. That being said I'm... -
New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera
Yes here the chime still triggers but mostly use the automation here to sound doorbell chime sounds and use text to speech. So upping the transformer should work as it appears that your video doorbell is drawing a bit of power. You have to find the transformer. Mine was in the basement here... -
New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera
How many doorbell buttons are you using? If you are only using one button and the video doorbell then maybe switching over to a purely mechanical chime. You might be able to keep the old transformer in place this way. Here recently updated my older 8VAC Nutone chime to a newer chime that I... -
Advice on choice of Audio Cable
I have only seen two wires for the microphones on my test 38 mm camera boards with Hikvision firmware.

Great news @Test_1234!!! Relating to the hardware PIR with ONVIF output here noticed that I could never adjust it well enough to use. I went to using a small wireless PIR facing the doorbell from the top of the front door porch about 2.5 meters up which works a bit better than the hardware PIR. -
