Small pictures in DVR emails

Post by Revo2Maxx »

Hello all, So I had someone reach out to me and thought it was something that should be touched on here in case others have this issue..

If you have a DVR and have setup emails to post when you get an event either VIA motion or IVS and your pictures are to small you can make a change in your DVR's setup to send a larger format image. On my 2 in use DVR's a 8m16-H5 and my 7108-AI DVR it is the same up to 960h and yet it starts out in CIF so if you don't want the smaller images even though you have your Sub Stream to be in D1 aka 704x480 you will still need to make a change in your Snapshot setup screen to a D1 or 960H format in the Event Type area...

So something cool about DVR's is that you can have your Schedule and Event formats in 2 different types. These can even be different to the Sub channel. Where in a NVR you have just the 2 Sub and Main options unless your camera like my 1046EW-AI offers a Special Sub2. There are others as well I just don't know what ones offer. However I today still only get alerts on my 1046EW-AI camera from 1 type output.

352x240 AKA CIF
