steuk 0 Posted March 3, 2014 Hello all, I installed my 6 cams at home saturday (I'm really glad !). Now I want to setup my surveillance station. So I added one cam (Onvif, because DS-2CD2332-I is not known by Syno yet) and started to play with it. I have two questions : How can I configure it to send substream with the emails ? (I configured emails notifications so I receive alarms on my mailbox, but no video attached) How can I make it record in 4:3 ? (it records videos in 16:9 which streches the image) Thanks by advance.

steuk 0 Posted March 3, 2014 I just configured my cam as a PSIA device. Now I can choose to record with my camera motion detection (not on Surveillance Station motion detection). So I configured my area to detect movement directly on the cam. What I don't get is : I configure my area on the cam, and I configure on surveillance where to record (on nas) and what to do (send email), am I right doing like this ? It's a kind of mixed configuration and it gives me a headache... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

steuk 0 Posted March 4, 2014 That's what I thought (but I was really not sure ), thank you for the confirmation. About sensitivity, high number means high sensitivity (i.e : at 100, you catch bugs ) ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

steuk 0 Posted March 5, 2014 On my cam I can choose "0" or "20" (nothing between these 2 numbers). Are you able to set "10" for example ? At "20", I still have more motion detection than expected, should I set "0" instead or does "0" mean no motion detection at all ? In these conditions motion detection is almost unusable for me...Is there a way to make it more accurate ? (some settings I didn't find...) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(some settings I didn't find...) i have mine at 20, it works ok for me, but in certain conditions like snow etc, you will get massive amounts of notifications.

steuk 0 Posted March 5, 2014 I think I need to define a better area for motion detection (threes move - we have lot of wind these days)... About recording, I want to set motion detection when I'm not at home, and continously record the remaining time (with no notification). You may think it's strange, but the reason is simple : I have a baby, and you know babys can be funny sometimes. So if something happens that I want to keep in mind forever, I'd better record it on my cams My question is : Do I set motion hours on my cameras (since I asked Surveillance Station to use my cam motion detection) or in SS ? Same question applies for simple recording all the remaining time. Thanks for your help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
