It looks like better ONVIF support is coming to UniFi Protect

Yes - UNVR is in the same subnet as the cameras.

Is it different from your main network?

 

[LollerAgent]

From my "main" network? Yes, my NVR and cameras are in a dedicated VLAN. What specifically is your problem and/or concern?

Are you assigning them to a VLAN within UniFi Network settings? For some reason, when I move the cameras and associated UniFi Protect accessories / integrations (i.e. Superlink sensors) to a dedicated VLAN, I am forced to setup everything from scratch again; my UniFi devices get knocked offline from UniFi Protect as soon as I set a static IP under the respective VLAN.

I'm not exactly sure what you're asking. I have a VLAN (and associated L3 interface) configured on my Unifi gateway (a UDM-SE). The NVR and cameras are connected to switchports that are configured with a native (untagged) VLAN of my "security" VLAN.

Oh, that makes sense - I assume you assigned dedicated ports on your switch to that particular VLAN right?

 

[LollerAgent]

Yes -- the switchports need to be configured with a native (untagged) VLAN.

Thank you for confirming - looks like I will need to reserve a day for this

Well - speaking of ONVIF, here is recent discussion on Reddit - first thread has the OP deleted, but the comments are still helpful

In case you have cash to spare in this wrecked economy

As a test, I adopted 12 of my 54IRs this afternoon. It's strange that some show up as HD and others as 2K.

Is this related to the primary stream settings on the cameras being different?

All 12 are set up the same for the Primary and Secondary streams.

I turned this on and I'm getting motion events sent to Protect.

That's what I did. I was all excited until the bugs came out at night.

I've never used Smart Detection, sounds like it may not be so smart.

It’s dumb actually
Too bad the IVS detections are not being passed down through ONVIF on UniFi Protect
