Initially adding it showed the stream working great, image It did take some tweaking with the settings though, I found that manually setting it up was the only way to get it working, just switch the URL prefix to RTSP, type in the URL and that’s about all you need to do. Setting up the Eufycam 2C in BlueIrisīlueIris has had mixed results for me so far getting the camera to work is easy enough taking the above information into account. The camera activates on motion anyway so surveillance station can just doĬontinues recording when the feed is live. However, Iįound that I wasn’t getting recordings. Motion only, knowing that the camera only worked on motion anyway. When I initially set this up, I set Synology to record With the RTSP stream live I was able to test the connection and Type into surveillance station should look something like thisġ92.168.x.x:554/live0 (With you adding the correct numbers To modify the URL provided by the Eufy to include the port number so what you So toggling RTSP off then on worked immediately.Īs far as the settings go, it is pretty easy. When I first tried, I had already got it to work in BlueIris, leaving it for a while the Eufy closes the stream so when I added the camera to Synology it just camera up with an error. The trick to getting this to work is to enable RTSP as you add the camera to Surveillance Station. Setting up the Eufycam 2C in Synology Surveillance Station If you don’t power your router or Eufyĭown very often, it shouldn’t change its IP anyway. So you will have to tell your router always to assign the IP address to thatĭevice (if your router supports it). It looks like you can’t do this manually on Eufy, The main thing you need to do is make sure you have a static Setting up RTSP within Eufy is easy enough, just go to theĬamera settings, hit the RTSP setting and go through the step by step procedure. Up the storage – in my case, this would take the potential storage from 16GB to Just be aware, you are not getting added functionality, you just massively bump So before you try to integrate the cameras with your NAS, Would get via recording directly to the microSD card. Opens up when motion is detected which leads to the same functionality you Synology Surveillance Station, what appears to happen is that the RTSP stream RTSP Stream not working? It is not a 24/7 streamįrom my testing, getting this set up with BlueIris and To mitigate this you’ll want another external backup, preferably to the cloud.Eufy Security euf圜am 2C 2-Cam Kit Security Camera Outdoor. If the box just dies, or if something catastrophic happens like a fire, you’ll still lose all your data. Whichever you choose however, don’t consider your NAS to be the only backup of your data. RAID 6 meanwhile requires four drives but offers both striped and dual parity, so two drives could fail and the RAID could still recover. As data is ‘striped’ across three drives, reads are fast, but at the expense of slower writes because of having to also write the parity data. That means a RAID 5 array can withstand a single drive failure without losing data or access to data. RAID 5 requires at least three drives and offers parity data. You can then replace the faulty disk, and rebuild the RAID array. In this scenario, the second drive is a mirror of the first, so if one drive fails completely all your data is safe on the other. Most NAS drives will offer at least two bays, which means that you can set them up as RAID 1.
