Hello,

I bought a new camera: DS-2CD2387G2P-LSU/SL

Like my other two cameras (DS-2CD2386G2-ISU/SL), I also integrated this one into Home Assistant.

Everything works perfectly, except that Home Assistant regularly receives incorrect motion alerts.

Below you'll find an overview of detections from the last 3 hours. As you can see, quite a few "detected" messages were reported to Home Assistant, while I only received one notification in the Hik-Connect app.

It appears the detection target (human/vehicle) isn't being taken into account.

The camera is running on firmware V5.7.20 build 241120


Any ideas why?
 
If you receive by listener mode, it seems your HA does not respond 200OK to an event in timely manner and you might get duplicate due to ANR option.
Or you are processing additional events which are not Motion/intrussion/line crossing and parse them as motion
 
Then i wouldnt know. All event integrations i did, work as they should. Either via cloud or locally. It has to do with either camera settings or something with HA, since you stated its same as on other 2 cameras, i believe its time you hit the HA community forum.
 
Meanwhile, it's become clearer: the camera sends motion detection to Home Assistant, even if the movement occurs outside my selected zone!

Specifically: I select my driveway, but every time a car passes on the street, I get a signal in Home Assistant.

So I think it is a problem on the camera-side...
