The colors represent different cameras. They reflect the color you set for them in the "Camera Settings" , "General" tab, "Color". If all the cams are the same color here, you will see one band in the timeline, but if you make them different in BI, then each band will r...

Daytime will look great, both 4mb and the 8mb (4k) . It's the night that makes the difference... the 8mb on the 1.8 sensor will result in needing more light and therefore more blurring with movement due to slower shutter speed. There's a lot of discussion on this at "that other site"... ta...

Mostly sound reasoning, and Empiretech on sale this weekend. But many would actually recommend the 5442 version (4mb on a 1.8 sensor) (IPC-T54IR-ZE-S3)... rather than the 8mb ( IPC-T58IR-ZE S S3) on the same 1.8 sensor... as that 4mb performs better at night. You would want the 8mb to be on a 1.2 se...

I have had several Annke and several Dahua (mostly the 5442 versions, one 4kt). Though the Annke is not exactly Hikvision, I read they are close enough, but all in all the Dahua's have been more reliable and easier for me to manage. And I like the 5442 4MB on the 1.8 chip... my Annke's were less des...

It moved to the "Alert" tab a while ago...

I was able to export normally with 5.8.9.0... set export start and stop points, then export as MP4, default preset...

Yes, they are all visible in the recorded video files when playing back Alerts. I can see them on live video and recordings on UI3 too. I note I have "Burn label mark-up onto Alert images" in camera settings/Alert/AI. Could it be that ? and the answer was: image.png (both were NOT checked...

I also have burn label checked. so something else, sounds like a quick ask of Ken:)

Thanks...

Tim: I checked further and none of my added overlays show in my timeline view or recorded files (including a date/time overlay). So the %003 is acting the same as the date/time overlay. Viewable in live view, not recorded.
Do you see any of yours in your recorded files (or timeline view?)

I added %003 overlay txt macro and it shows in the live view, but it does not show in timeline or recorded file. Is there a setting to have the overlay show in the recorded file?
