I’m thinking about buying a Reolink RLC-422 and I have a question about the camera, that you maybe are able to answer. Is the RLC-422 fully compatible with the Synology Surveillance Station over ONVIF? Most importantly: do the multi-streams and the movement detection work on the Surveillance Station? I’m asking because I have a WansView […]

I’m concerned that only 1G of memory in the TS-228A might be an issue using up to four cameras. I also wonder if the Realtek RTD1295 is up […]

I was set to purchase the Synology DS218+ with a couple of Seagate Iron Wolf Pro 6TB Drives, on the advice of the IT manager at my workplace.

I recently had a boat built and had the builders install a CCTV system for me from Cmac CCTV (big mistake!) upon handover last week it became apparent that the vivotek anti ligature cameras were not compatible. The cmac ones are fine, however upon contacting cmac they were unhelpful and have left me searching for […]
