Cómo le haces para para poner la doble cámara en la parte derecha?

[@oxidize99]

great review. thanks!

[@simplesimon755]

I really like this camera but the nighttime results are really disappointing. Every time I have needed to review camera footage due to incidents that have happened it has been at night. If this one was better at night recording I wouldn't hesitate to get it. That ghosting effect you showed was significant. Great video.

[@NaterTater]

I have a feeling it might be fixable with firmware updates. I'll see what they say.

[@douglastipton9604]

@@NaterTater Unless that firmware update can change the sensor size to something larger, that camera will be blind at night period. A 4K camera like that should have a 1/1.2" CMOS so it can see well at night.

[@mohammadayache3991]

This camera is awesome, but if you use it with reolink NVR, you won't be able to use the tracking camera on the mobile app, you will need to go to DVR HDMI and use it. I have connected Reolink they said they are working on it, let's wait and see

[@ErnieMayberry]

Wow. I now officially have camera envy. Blows away Nest outdoor battery camera and cheaper to! Much longer record times for free with SD card memory. And the option of NVR recording.

[@NaterTater]

I agree!

[@coolhead8686]

Why they don't include the power adapter?

[@wbwright79]

great review. appreciate your time, thank you.

[@12345billjo]

How do I get directly to the event that triggered an notification on my mobile phone app and not to live view?, cant find a setting also any time frame on when this cam can use the cloud. I really enjoy your show

[@marcusaurelius2787]

Just ordered it, I also liked the reolink rlc 523wa wifi.

[@espinozanovak831]

you can get thumbnails in the phone app also, maybe an update. On windows, you can zoom in on the record bar with the little blue lines with your mouse zoom wheel if you got it over the blue lines. Lots of stuff is hidden, and you got to find it on your own with right clicks or zooms

[@glovedcop69]

Is that really the length? Seems really short? How long is the cable for the package NVR option ?

[@techpa6646]

Hi, good review !, which is the detection range ? at which distance it detect a person ?

[@NaterTater]

About 30ft

[@ClaudeFrancois-f2t]

having the camera way up, makes it hard to see faces if someone wearing a cap and tryng to break in, what max height suggestion to install the camera. 6 feet above ground maybe?

[@NaterTater]

Typically you want both, like I have a doorbell cam at 4.5ft and a 10ft overhead cam that is not easy to reach.

[@dhansel4835]

Even though you can get the WIFI version you can also use it on an ethernet cable. You can use it on a POE with a power break out box close to the camera to bring out the power for the camera. During the Amazon Prime day they had these 42% off the retail price.

[@SoulFlower1]

Hey, How is the zoom on this camera?

[@NaterTater]

@@SoulFlower1 good. I show it in the video

[@dalesupertramp9234]

So, if you are a burglar walking directly under the camera - it stops tracking you once you’re directly under it? That seemed to be the case in your demo.

[@NaterTater]

I've been really impressed how well it works, tracks and detects people.

[@GeorgeArmfield]

@@dalesupertramp9234 this disappointed me. It seemed to lose the person when he walked under it

[@pewpewi]

Helllllo sir, quick one if you setup a patrol, and it detects a person (while patrolling) does it follows the person?

[@NaterTater]

Good question. I didnt test that! I would assume it would begin to track and then return to patrol after motion stops.

[@pewpewi]

@@NaterTater thx for the reply sir appreciate it

[@TimSmith-db1iu]

Do you know how to remove the "zoomed in" screen from the app? I'm tired of having to select the "single" screen every time I want to view the camera.

[@NaterTater]

I dont off hand but I'm pretty sure there was a setting for that.

[@TimSmith-db1iu]

I looked and cannot find anything that is permanent. I'll keep messing with it. You still using that camera?@@NaterTater

[@beduinalbanczyk1853]

Can I use this camera live ? For ex I want to use my tablet to put on the wall 24/7 to watch what is outside from my sofa and want to turn on app in this tablet

[@NaterTater]

Yes, it supports rtsp and other protocols for that type of use.

[@beduinalbanczyk1853]

How you think is it better to buy eufy or this trackmix ? I mean eufy solocam . Cause i think trackmix have better mic sound and pic quality especially when zoomed . Thanks !

[@NaterTater]

@@beduinalbanczyk1853 you might want to look at eufy e330 kzbin.info/www/bejne/aJ_afJ-sbtaBnpI

[@beduinalbanczyk1853]

@@NaterTater wow very nice picture quality ! Now I have to decide between 3 of them haha . What you can recommend with same pic quality with microphone and night view in colour ? Thanks!

[@NaterTater]

@@beduinalbanczyk1853 the e330 has all those.

[@antoniocerasuolo757]

hi I need to mount it on a junction box can you please suggest one?

[@NaterTater]

This one is not designed to mount to a junction box. the screws are about 2" apart but junction boxes are typically 2.75 or 3.5" apart.

[@antoniocerasuolo757]

@@NaterTater ok thanks i think i will put all the wires inside the junction box and connect the PoE LAN cable in there and then seal with silicone, what do you think?? do you have another suggestion??

[@LAGMI20]

i am planning to buy 3x 823A 16, and a doorbell poe, and this one ptz.PTZ Will this all work with poe switch from reolink then connected to a nvr 36

[@NaterTater]

I believe so but still might be worth confirming with Reolink support

[@kenhargrave3932]

What type of bracket did you use to mount the camera on the corner of the wall?

[@NaterTater]

For this testing I used two bar clamps. ie temporary install.

[@philc824]

Does the NVR require a Static IP address ?

[@NaterTater]

If you want access from outside your home it needs static or DDNS.

[@GameKollector]

The jerky movement of the PTZ…Have you tried slowing the PTZ speed down to see if the jerky movement is minimized?

[@manuelcardona1723]

Hi nice video can this camera conect drirect to ethernet router? I dont have NVR .. if i can connect to a router i have to conect the camera on power? Or the ethernet wire conect the power and internet for signal?

[@NaterTater]

Yes, they have a POE version and a wifi version. You dont need a NVR.

[@manuelcardona1723]

@@NaterTater so just hook up the wire on the router ( the blue wire) which is better reolink RLC-823A OR REOLINK truckmix the one you showing..

[@NaterTater]

@manuelcardona1723 the rlc-823a is better (and more expensive). Your router has to support POE to just plug the ethernet from it to the camera, otherwise you need to plug in the POE injector to get power in the ethernet cable.

[@ClaudeFrancois-f2t]

is it 4K???? and can you do continuous recording even though there is no motion?

[@NaterTater]

I think you can if you have a NVR

[@kdscrapping4452]

do you need an NVR to hook to your computer. I am expecting this camera today and I do NOT have an NVR. can it be hooked up to more than one phone ?? I ordered the WiFi one !!

[@ProjectMadness]

Up to 10 streams can be accessed from the camera from any location. The camera works standalone without a nvr and requires a SD card for recording.

[@kdscrapping4452]

@@ProjectMadness Thanks !!

[@jjdavis7320]

Is the wind noise picked up by the Riolink or your phone?

[@NaterTater]

The camera

[@anotherperson6460]

just received my solar panel trac mix today for $190 including tax

[@NaterTater]

Good!

[@dartu5854]

The quality seems a little low for 4k? Is that just youtube compression? Also what happens with cars?

[@NaterTater]

Depends. Are you watching it as 4K on youtube? There is compression on the camera and less so on youtube. It can detect a d track cars.

[@OLDUSAFMedic]

Why didn't you put a pole right there to extend it up 5 or so feet and you would have 360 degree view and could watch the kids play too.

[@NaterTater]

Temporary install to test it out prior to permanent setup.

[@ClaudeFrancois-f2t]

good point on night time, cause most people want good visual at night time since that is when theft happens mostly. very disappointed with it

[@coolhead8686]

You are wrong. It is not a digital zoom. It just use a different lens for closeup and different lens for wide view.

[@NaterTater]

It has two lens that it switches between and it uses digital zoom "between" those lens and to zoom past the 3x.
