Reolink RLC-410 Data Streams

ZoneMinder v1.33.16

I had everything exactly the same except I was running 1.32 cause it's the "stable" version. I tried 1.33.15 and it's working perfectly now. The strange part is I had already tried 1.33 but an older build. Thanks a lot for the help.

I am using a 410W in RTMP mode and it seems to be stable, zero smearing for now.
However, the bandwidth even at 720 and 8fps with 2000 bit rate stays around 250kb/s
As reference my 3 foscam and 4 Ezviz (all in RTSP H264 passthrough with audio) all use <50kb/s when not triggered. I guess they all use Variable Bitrate?

Any feedback?

Its been a weird combination of all of these tips to get mine to somewhat work, but I wanted to throw in here this thread for audio:
viewtopic.php?f=12&t=29143&p=114201&hil ... nk#p114201

I haven't tested my current config's audio but I'm using the RTSP method, not RTMP and FFMPEG. My current setup is finally stable without delays or smearing. One thing I also did outside of the advice here is that I found a blog post on Reolink's site about setting up their cameras for Synology. They have you set the camera's encoding to "base". See link below.

I honestly do not know what has had the best effect as my zoneminder version has updated between testing (also this is running as a plugin on FreeNAS), and I started to just shoot machine gun style and lost track of what I did.

I currently also have the Reolink NVR, so I want to see zoning, audio etc really get dialed in- I need zoneminder to be as good as the Reolink NVR and app (would use zm-NinjaPro) in order to ditch the NVR, but until then I can't bring myself to "downgrade". I really want to be self hosted, but I don't want my security to be an experiment or have glitches. I have to say, the Reolink app has really matured, I'm curious to see if zm-Ninga can somewhat take it's place.

And then facial recognition is very interesting. Something that is "one click" with Synology, I'm wondering how intensive for a derp like me it will be to setup in zoneminder.

PLEASE HELP!! PLEASE SHARE SCREENSHOTS OF WHAT YOU GOT TO WORK!!!

gosh I'm trying to find a good setup right now for the RLC,

I did find that if you go into the camera web interface and change the video stream down to 720P the ONVIF function works, but why in the world does it NOT work with any other resolution? 1080P does not work, neither do any of the other ones.

Edit:
The 720p stream settings from onvif worked until night time then I got smearing, treating, and other video problems so I'm still looking for help getting it to work good

I try to make rtmp code but i get message:
Unidentified codec:
VLC could not identify the audio or video codec
Or somethimes it insist to type pass, i type than insist again again again.
Help?
Also i am not sure, should i type ip adress only or ip:8000?

in VLC? show me the exact code you used, and what it requests. I had my cam working the other day I'll see what I can do to help.

I just bought a Reolink RLC-410-5MP. I was having a lot of problems in Zoneminder, as described here. I had to update the firmware to versio 3 to use the rtmp protocol, the camera came with a realy old firmware (version 2). So, before anything, update the firmware.

PS: I used wine to run the Reolink windows software. Works fine.

After spending way too much time trying to figure out why my cameras were refusing connection, I finally saw your reply. I too had to update the firmware on new cameras. Took me a while to boot into windows (always forcing updates!) but now it looks like the latest firmware has a web interface which can be used to update in the future.

One thing I had to do to make all of my Reolink camera stop smearing is to use the RTMP urls. They're not well documented, but it solved my smearing issues.

Example for sub stream and main stream below. You set those to be your source path and then set the method to TCP.

Sub stream:

Code: Select all

rtmp://192.168.1.100/bcs/channel0_sub.bcs?channel=0&stream=0&user=admin&password=password

Main Stream:

Code: Select all

rtmp://192.168.1.100/bcs/channel0_main.bcs?channel=0&stream=0&user=admin&password=password

In case you are still reading this I registered an account just to say thank you. This solved smearing issues for me with a RLC-410W running firmware v3.0.0.65_20073102.

Thank you!
