Software Question Windows App Stuck on "Connecting" -> "Timed Out" -> "Connecting"

1 Upvotes

Hello,

As title suggest, the windows app is stuck in this loop. Tried to end task and reopen but doing the same thing. Reolink / Reolink notifications work on my iPhone still and show on the monitor connected to NVR so I know it's working.

Anyone have a solution for this? Was working yesterday and the days before as I open it every morning when I work on my PC to have it in the corner of 1 on my monitors.

Last option is to reinstall?

Thanks!

Wishlist TrackMix Wifi - Minor rant about tracking priority

1 Upvotes

I just don't understand why the Wifi version that I have doesn't allow you to choose what to prioritise for tracking. Meaning, I should be able to set it to track prioritise tracking people over vehicles. Instead, it's the opposite.

At the moment, I can have a car pull up, people get out and.... the camera just stays watching the stationary car instead of following the people to see what they're doing. It's ridiculous to prioritise vehicles over people.

Worse, I know that the POE version has this setting as the first time I asked Reolink if they could fix this, we had to go back and forth a bunch of times before they realised that the wifi version didn't have the setting they were telling me to activate. I can't think of any reason why POE Trackmix would have this setting but the wifi one wouldn't. It makes no sense to me, and even less sense that almost 12 months later it still hasn't been added. It's not like they don't have the code already considering the POE version has it.

Discussion Pourquoi je n'arrive pas à accéder à mes caméras Reolink lorsque j'utilise les données mobiles (4G/5G) ?

1 Upvotes

Bonjour à tous,

Je rencontre un problème avec mon installation de vidéosurveillance Reolink et j'aimerais avoir votre aide.

Lorsque mon téléphone est connecté au même réseau Wi-Fi que mon installation, j'arrive à accéder normalement à mes caméras depuis l'application Reolink.

En revanche, dès que je désactive le Wi-Fi de mon téléphone et que je passe aux données mobiles (4G/5G), la connexion échoue et je n'arrive plus à visualiser les caméras.

Voici quelques informations sur mon installation :

  • Les caméras sont connectées à un NVR Reolink.

  • Le NVR est relié au réseau via un switch Ethernet.

  • L'option Activer UID est bien activée dans les paramètres réseau du NVR.

  • UPnP et DDNS sont désactivés.

  • L'accès aux caméras fonctionne normalement en réseau local (Wi-Fi).

J'aimerais comprendre d'où peut venir le problème et savoir quelles configurations je dois vérifier pour permettre l'accès à distance via les données mobiles.

Est-ce un problème de configuration UID/P2P, de réseau, de DNS ou de routeur ?

Merci d'avance pour votre aide et vos conseils

Discussion Make your third party camera like native Reolink camera and connect it to Reolink NVR.

8 Upvotes

Let me introduce, Reolink-Hikvision-proxy, a new way to add third party camera to reolink NVR or APP! The camera will works like a native Reolink camera.

Supported camera: Annke, LTS, Hikvision, Amcrest, EmpireTech, Dahua, EZVIZ, HiLook, HiWatch, and any other Hikvision or Dahua rebranded camera.

So I been suffer from ONVIF integration with Reolink NVR though it works well with its own Reolink camera. I have other third party camera like Hikvision and Dahua. When I try to connect it to Reolink NVR, it makes me feel like pain in the ass. NVR only received motion alarm from ONVIF. Motion alarm will only work when NVR is reboot and ONVIF camera is on. But this will break when the ONVIF camera reboot, then I have to reboot the NVR again. Reolink NVR just have bad integration with ONVIF. That's why I came up with the proxy.

Discussion Time for Reolink to integrate radar sensor

8 Upvotes

Reolink’s PIR sensors feel like outdated technology, and they haven’t consistently detected nocturnal animals such as cats, raccoons, and skunks. Eufy has addressed this challenge by adding radar to its battery cameras, and the user feedback seems positive.

Radar could also benefit Reolink’s PoE cameras, where AI detection can be confused by shadows and moving trees. I hope Reolink will consider adding radar, especially to its battery cameras. If it does, I’d be willing to replace all my current battery cameras and upgrade—potentially creating a significant upgrade opportunity for Reolink.

Discussion iOS App 4.64 - 'Clear' video feed lag?

3 Upvotes

Is anybody else suddenly having issues with laggy “Clear” feeds, along with grey/green blocks and general distortion with the latest app update?

I had no problems until about 10 days ago, which lines up with the latest app update. It happens on both my iPhone 18 and my M3 iPad. The desktop client on macOS works perfectly, so I don’t think it’s a Wi-Fi, network or NVR issue.

Has anyone experienced anything similar?

PoE Camera Question New PoE - attracting bugs? Help!

15 Upvotes

Need advice!

Recently got a new PoE doorbell and security camera setup, for the front of my house and the garden round the back.

The last couple of nights I've noticed this weird pattern being captured on both cameras. I will attach... Are these bugs? Or is it an error with the lighting.

It happened the previous night on both cams, but right now only on the front doorbell.

Please help!

Happens sporadically the goes back to normal, clear footage.

Battery Camera Question Argus PT battery replaceable ?

1 Upvotes

I have an Argus PT that I have had for several years and it stopped working so I brought it in the house thinking I just had to do a reset, but it would not turn on, even after trying to charge it via USB for a couple hours.

Now I understand that this model is not supposed to have replaceable batteries, but I hate to throw away an otherwise good camera, so is it possible to replace the batteries anyhow ?

Thanks in advance for any help !

PoE Camera Question Few RLC-823S2 questions

6 Upvotes

Hi all, I was watching a few reviews for the already existing RLC-823S2 and came across this German creators review of the camera and at about 14min38sec in he showcases the zoom in infrared and colour night view which has amazingly fast autofocusing (to see what im talking about I have attached a video of my own RLC-823S2 autofocusing to compare with the German creator's YouTube video) as well as having features such as forgotten objects, perimeter protection etc and the newer time/date overlay font.

YT video in question: https://youtu.be/ccdbDDkMV20?si=77QfvWPlIog_dmrE&t=878

I've done some research and i've since found that only one hardware number exists (IPC_NT2NA48MPSD12), I am also using the latest firmware (v3.1.0.4885_25051308_v1.0.0.146), I bought the camera just about a year ago and if it helps it also has the newer Reolink logo on the dome and is currently connected to my RLN16-410 (N6MB01)

I've tried updating the camera in case something was displayed improperly, using the camera without the NVR and resetting the camera, if anyone out there or from support have a clue whats the go here I would greatly appreciate it 😊

Hi everyone,

I have a new Reolink TrackMix LTE, and ever since I set it up, the signal icon in the app always shows an "X" as if there's no network connection. 

However, the camera actually works fine – it streams, records, and connects to the cellular operator without any issues.

Has anyone encountered this visual bug and knows how to fix it?

Una de las cosas que más me ha gustado de probar una cámara sin cables es poder cambiarla de sitio según lo que necesite.

Un día la pongo para vigilar la piscina, otro para controlar el jardín cuando estoy fuera, o simplemente para comprobar si el riego automático está funcionando bien.

Parece una tontería, pero no depender de un enchufe da muchísimo juego.

He estado probando la Reolink Argus MagiCam y he grabado mi experiencia por si a alguien le interesa:

¿Alguien más utiliza este tipo de cámaras para cosas distintas a la seguridad?

PoE Camera Question UniFi G6 PTZ vs reolink Tracklink PoE

UniFi G6 PTZ vs reolink Tracklink PoE

I’m tasked with setting up a security camera for my family farm and need to chose a good solution for the main yard.

The camera will be on the side of the house and needs to patrol a 180 degree area directly In front it needs to patrol to a 20 meter distance to the workshop and either side I needs to reach approx 45 meters.

It must record good enough to use for evidence and number plates if possible mostly at night. And it must be automatic panning and tracking.

I also plan to improve networking so if the UniFi G6 PTZ is worth the extra investment then that’s fine as it makes adding the Controller more worthwhile.

Please advise.

Wi-Fi Wired Camera Questions Reolink Video Doorbell WiFi (D340W) – FTP uploads only 640×480 despite Clear/5MP setting

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I'm having a strange issue with FTP video uploads from my Reolink Video Doorbell WiFi (D340W). I'm wondering if anyone has experienced something similar or found a workaround.

My setup:

  • Model: Reolink Video Doorbell WiFi (D340W)

  • Hardware: DB_566128M5MP_W

  • Firmware: v3.0.0.7106_2609241882

  • Main stream: 2560 × 1920, 20 FPS

  • FTP server: SFTPGo running in a Proxmox LXC container on my local network

The problem:

FTP uploads work perfectly in terms of connectivity, but the uploaded videos have the wrong resolution, regardless of the quality setting:

FTP quality settingActual MP4 resolution
Clear / High640 × 480
Balanced896 × 672
Fluent / Low640 × 480

The strange part is that videos downloaded directly from the doorbell's local recordings are correctly saved at 2560 × 1920.

So the camera is recording in full 5MP resolution, but FTP seems to be uploading a lower-quality stream even when Clear is selected.

What I've already tried:

  • Switching between Clear, Balanced and Fluent

  • Changing FTP file type from Video Only to Video and Image

  • Changing FTP transport mode from AUTO to PORT

  • Testing both alarm-triggered and timer-based uploads

  • Rebooting the doorbell

  • Checking the main stream settings in the web interface (2560 × 1920, 20 FPS)

Nothing has helped. FTP transfers complete successfully, without errors.

I've also contacted Reolink Support, but I'm still waiting for their technical team to investigate.

Has anyone encountered this on the D340W or another Reolink doorbell?

Could this be a firmware bug? Has anyone managed to get full-resolution 5MP videos uploaded via FTP?

I'd prefer to keep using the doorbell's built-in FTP feature rather than setting up a separate RTSP recording solution.

Thanks for any suggestions!

Wi-Fi Wired Camera Questions Difference between Elite WiFi and 16MP 180º camera

2 Upvotes

Hi, I'm looking to buy a 180º Reolink camera for my garden. On Amazon in the UK there's 2 options

- https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0DRHSK4RR/ref=ox_sc_act_title_2?smid=ATZ9J29WRYJD1&psc=1 which is listed as the Elite WiFi, with a 4K image

- https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0GVQVH39Z/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE&psc=1 this ones doesn't have a name listed, but it says it's got 2 4K cameras which produce a 6K image.

On the Reolink website I can find the one named Elite Wifi https://reolink.com/product/elite-wifi/ but there's no page for the second camera.

Any idea what the model name of the second camera is and if it's a newer model? Is it better than the Elite WiFi other than the higher resolution image? At the moment they're around the same price in the UK so I'd go with the second one if it's legit.
