NV4108e video at 4mp lots of motion blur....

[2ninety]

I have an NV4108e running a WD purple 4tb drive with one 4mp camera (IP4M-1025E) and as soon as the sun starts to go down, starts to get into low light, it seems like even the slightest motion is blurred. Cars moving less than 15 mph are blurred to the point if you pause the video you almost can't make out what kind of car it is. Almost a ghosting effect. Also, i know the camera only does 4mp at 20 fps, but it also seems like it makes motion seem "slow" if that makes any sense. Any of this seem normal?

Settings for the cam are on :
Encode: H.264h
resolution: 4mp
bit rate type: VBR
bit rate: 6144
quality: 6 highest
frame rate: 20 fps

Cam is GREAT during the day, just leaves something to be desired with motion after dark.

I have an Amcrest HDCVI analog system with 2.1mp bullet cams and they experience none of the motion blur issues the digital 4mp cam system does.

Any suggestions? setting changes?

I have the same problem, except this also occurs during daylight hours. the motion blur is so bad that nothing is recognizable.

Hello cgram7 ,

If you are able to login to the camera web interface, go to set up > Video > Configuration and disable the '3D Noise reduction'. Please check if that fixes the issue. If you have a high resolution camera, you could also try lowering the video resolution and check how it works.

Did un-checking the 3d noise reduction help anyone? I am having similar issues day and night with my 1080p bullet cams

Yeah this has to do with the noise reduction. Usually around 35-40 is a decent balance between less noise and too much ghosting, and you can play around with manual exposure levels too if your lighting level is consistant. Just a limitation of camera sensors unless you pay a lot more for the large 1/1.8" sensor cameras (a LOT more) or the new low light sensors coming out.
