What to Know About Reolink Auto-Tracking Cameras | You Ask, We Answer

Auto-tracking PTZ cameras are more powerful than regular ones because they can automatically track the moving target and leave them no places to hide. Reolink now has two types of auto-tracking PTZ cameras: the traditional auto-tracking cameras, like Reolink 823A and E1 Outdoor, and the AI zoom auto-tracking cameras, like the Reolink TrackMix series. So, in this video, we will walk you through these two cameras, including how they work and how to use them.

I have 12 of the Reolink cameras. 3 outdoor, the rest are indoor. It would be great on the indoor camera software to track common areas of a home or business, similar to the auto tracking of the outdoor cameras. Really like the quality of the outdoor cameras, solid construction and so forth - they are in constant patrol mode. I agree with others in the comments below about the patrol mode - when it senses motion to switch to auto track. Look forward to software updates and improvements.

3:39 I have 3 reo link track mix solar wifi cameras 1of them I can no longer control from the app the pan tilt zoom : also all 3 of them no longer follow any motion that occurs in front of the detection zone I understand that the allow button in the app under detection zone has to be enabled: all three have been enabled should these cameras be reset manually?

What disappoints me about the reolink 823a that I recently purchased for my driveway is that you have to choose between tracking and a patrol mode, it really annoys me that once a target is located is that is doesn't then track the target 😡.
I'm getting two track mix cameras next, I really like the 823a other than you have to choose between track and patrol, have you no firm wear updates planned to sort out this issue 🙏🏼

What type of cameras move periodically to detect motion to track targets ? Let us say a camera is facing east and the movement is in west, these auto tracking cameras would not be able to detect them right ? It would help of the camera can change direction when it senses movement.

G'day'I did a Firmware upgrade yesterday, I had a play around with the new layout and functions. I tried the auto track with the RLC-823A.There were too many people out on the street and the camera was confused about who to track. For this particuler aplication the auto track is not suitable. I am hoping to get the doorbell camera in 2023. It would be great if when the button is pressed it "Calls" the PTZ camera to that location and then tracks that person. That would have to be done in a new Firmware upgrade I assume.

How to active the " Monitor Point? ". I have two cam exactly the same model, but this feature only show on one device
??

I have a slight "complaint". I have a trackmix camera and really like it. However lets say when using auto track, the Wide angle lens detects vehicle motion. The camera moves to lock in on the moving object. The problem is, my neighbors black car is always parked in the driveway of their white house. That presents a really strong signal for the AI, and 7 times out of 10, the camera locks on their car and not the REAL car that is in motion. It would be awesome if when you paint out detection areas that the camera remembers it's position in space and ignores that area. As the firmware is now, the area you've painted out on the camera moves with the pan/tilt function. I hope that makes sense.

Otherwise, and outstanding product.

Suggestions:

• make the lights tunable so the user can match the kelvin to the existing exterior lighting of the house

• enable auto-update functionality to work on wired / POE cameras! Currently auto-update only works on battery-powered cameras

• fix the two-way audio quality! It’s awful on every model I’ve tested

Which camera is best to record license plates at night?

[Mark-dkck]

Can I link two track mix cameras together so that when one goes out of frame the other will turn and pick up where the other left off?

[cristian.alvarez]

A question why can’t I see the 2 screens on my phone? I have trackmix Poe because I’ve already updated it and I can’t see the two screens and I know everything about the video and I also downloaded the latest update. It’s the same as you recommend. I already sent messages to Reolink and they haven’t answered me. Or only work for wifi

Please can i connect multiple auto tracks or solar camera on mobile phone

[adelekeoluwaseun]

I have 4 camera and i need to connect them on a mobile at once can this possible ?

[Stefdu]

i'm will install a trackmix under my carport. That means that there is no wall, the trackmix will be installed on the ceilling. What will happen with the autotracking if someone is walking to the camera, until being below it, and continue to walk "behind" while going away? Is the autotracking able to follow that ?

[handydave]

Which of those cameras listed have the patrol option ? Otherwise, the tracking function wouldn't work if the person was out of the cameras field of view ?

[radvalve]

After it tracks someone and the event is over will it return to a programed home postion?

[ClaudeFrancois-ft]

how long doe the reolink reocrd, one minute or continuous recording? normally most camera stop recording even though there is motion person after one minute or so

[edwardrogers-wright]

Referencing the video shown, in the PT mode, does the camera pan when the object moves out of wide lens view?

[LeBionArc]

Can it stream the auto zoomed videos to a nest hub? And if so, are there any significant lag in the stream?

[dhansel]

Where can you get the face recognizing software so when it auto-takes a picture of someone the software can find out who they are?
