Re: REPLAY/PLAYBACK function recently started freezing (App only)

Thank you very much for the response. P2P is my current setup. Surely it's not the cell service considering 5G and the fact that sometimes my cell has faster download/upload that home wifi. I'll look into that, but wouldn't that happen at all times? Even when just live viewing? Again, this only happ...

REPLAY/PLAYBACK function recently started freezing (App only)

I have a very simple setup with 2 wifi cameras and an NVR. I'm noticing, over the last 6 months or so that all cameras, that when accessing replay mode in the App that the playback would freeze/skip and even jump ahead 20 seconds or so, making the replay function useless. If I log into my NVR on my ...

Re: Email Alerts suddenly stopped?

Thank you Revo, this might be how I go from now on. This seems to work very well. Only thing I had a question of is on the Alert itself it indicates "Channel 2" instead of the name I have assigned that particular camera. Any idea where to change that?

Email Alerts suddenly stopped?

I noticed yesterday that my NVR has stopped sending alert emails. I currently use smtp.gmail.com with the same send to/from so that I get an alert on the gmail app on my phone. I've tried changing Port/Encrtyption - no good. Tried changing and using a different gmail account - no good. Tried using y...

REPLAY/PLAYBACK function recently started freezing (App only)?

Good morning all, I have a very simple setup with 2 wifi cameras and a NVR. Up until Christmas everything worked like normal, including the replay function within the ViewPro app. Around the time I upgraded firmware on the NVR and noticed that anytime I had a camera (didn't matter which one) up and ...

Would it be possible to have multiple motion settings based on schedule?

I had mentioned this idea to Amcrest a while back, and was wondering if it could be considered as part of a update at some point. I would like the option to create different motion REGIONS, Sensitivity & Thresholds based on the schedule . So for instance, at night between the hours of say 9pm-6a...

Re: Motion Detection Frustratiion... about to return system!

I'll chime in here as well, like MacMan said I also record 24/7 just in case. I also experience several alerts when the sun fades in and out from behind the clouds -- The only thing i've been able to do that really seems to help is to make your region area smaller. One thing I had mentioned to Amcre...

Re: How to stop conversation view on gmai motion dection

I had this same question and apparently there is no option to stop conversation view within the Gmail App itself. You can stop conversation view via the browser on a PC, but nothing for the app. If you search Gmail's forums you'll see plenty of folks who request this, so me and others have the same ...

Just a heads up for anyone out there who have their notifications being sent to a Gmail service. In the most recent IOS update (10.3.2) something change with either the Gmail App, or IOS itself. Many have their notifications setup to send from your Gmail account to the same account, therefore genera...
