Yeah, certainly will be the last Reolink I buy, the buffer was not a real fix, I'm back to 15s. It varies a lot how far off it is. I'm probably within my RMA period but it's installed, had to drill out holes in the bracket a bit, etc., so really can't return it.

With buffer at 32mb the last 24 hours or so fell behind only 3 seconds, so a definite improvement. No response from reolink.

Never thought of the buffer, I just made it a huge 32mb. This system is memory rich. Will have to check with Reolink. What's odd is I was at maybe 4-5 hours of running and it was in sync (before changing the buffer) Not sure what that means.

That sounds right. If you disconnect and reconnect the camera just before testing, I bet the main stream is current and PTZ is quick. The issue is latency in the main stream I think.

Motion with the PTZ control in BI for me takes about 2 seconds to react (e.g. to a pan right or left). That's with Generic ONVIF, RTSP H.264/H.265,MJPG/MPEG4. I am not using a substream and am only running at 4fps. I will say that the 4fps is erratic, it's like I get all 4 frames in the first fracti...

Yes, this seems to work. Thank you. Apparently the zone configuration applies even if the motion sensor checkbox (where you set it up) is not checked. I was able to simulate this by waiting for someone to walk past out of the zone and manually trigger the camera - cancelled alert.

Thank you.

So the zones under trigger, "motion sensor" (which is not selected) will still apply to define zones in AI? I had presumed that could not be used if not checked. I've set it up (motion not checked, zone defined, selected in AI), but the wind has died down. May be hard to duplicate, hopeful...

I may simply not understand some settings, or maybe this is a fundamental limitation. I have a camera set up for camera detected motion, and have an area specified in it. I am getting confirmed alerts for objects outside the area. I think I understand what happens: It is a windy day, and the camera ...

I think I can answer my own question and it is a bit obvious, and I should have read the manual better. I had the (default) per camera AI option for "static Object Analysis" set, which causes a regular request for analysis even if no motion occurs. I'm not sure that is bringing any benefit...

I decided to turn off cameras to find out which one(s) were causing it, and the answer appears to be "all of them". With all seven cameras disabled the flow of requests stops, but with any camera active it continues, both cameras where BI is doing the motion detection and the camera is doi...
