Amcrest Forum

That's what I'm afraid of. At least I can export the settings first.

The thing is it worked fine for the past year. Nothing has changed. I just noticed that ALL the blank cameras are Amcrest. Only the 4 generic ones are not blank. I've gone as far as to set every camera to 720P - in camera. They also record motion - The display will be blank, but the red motion detec...

We have a 16 cam NVR with 15 cameras hooked up. From 720p up to 4K. Recently I started getting these decode errors errors. Using the built-in tools I can see that the max bandwidth the cameras hit total is 32 Mb/s. I have even set all the cameras to as low as 1782 kb/s. And I still get the decode er...

I have 16 cameras setup, all but 4 are Amcrest. If a camera loses connection for any reason, all the motion detection zone info I have setup is lost. On some cameras it defaults to 100% of the area (all red), 80% sensitivity and 0% threshold. On others the detection zone gets inverted, but still set...

When looking at the display attached to the NVR, have you tried right-clicking and selecting sequence? I don't know why the option is literally nowhere else, but you can drag and drop camera order there.

I searched this topic here and using Google. Tried everything suggested. On my NVR: eMail is setup and tested. I receive alerts but no attachments. Under eMail, "Attachment" is checked. Under Alarm->video detection->motion detection - "Enable" is checked - "Picture storage&q...

I'm spending way too much time on getting motion detect to work correctly - I'm beginning to think it's just a bug-ridden antiquated system. Is there a simple way to see WHAT actually triggered the system? I have motion detect recordings with nothing - literally nothing - I can see moving. If I see ...

Do the settings on the cameras matter? Most are Amcrest and I'm basically ignoring the in-camera options since I'm using the NVR.

I currently have 12 cameras connected. I want recording to take place on motion only. Some background: I have a camera under our deck covering a window. There's no need to record anything down there unless someone is skulking around trying to break in. Same for a camera in our large shed we use for ...

It's working for me but the sensitivity and threshold make no sense. I have sensitivity on 0 and threshold at 100 and a leaf is triggering it. So I tried no zones defined and motion detect on - same thing. Then I tried making the entire FOV 0 sensitivity and 100 threshold and the door sensitivity of...
