Very helpful video. I've spent a lot of time trying to work things out on this software and figured out most of what I wanted it to do, while slowly discovering what it can't do and getting very frustrated with it. No instructions I ever found were clear on a lot of things. Nice job mate.

Great help thanks. However when I go to page where you pick where to store videos the line that says general record length does not show. A small window opens above the time adjustment for alarm duration and I pick 30 mins and save but it still only records the default of 5 mins. Any thoughts please? I also get no zoom in function. Is this down to the camera I have?

Greeting. I have ctronics 380c 4mp cameras. I noticed that the frame rate is quite low, 7 drops to only 4. The problem is when I watch the live transmission of the image, when someone passes by, the image seems to slow down a bit, lag,... Which ctronics camera model do you use and what do you think is the best model without being too expensive? If you have perhaps another suggestion with another brand that works well on Windows, I would be grateful. Thanks in advance

Try holding the reset button on the camera for 8 seconds or so, that may make it detectable on your computer. I had the same issue with my garden cam where the phone app could see it but not the PC, turned out it was an IP conflict. A hard reset sorted it, although I had to disable my VPN software to add the camera. CTronics could make a fortune if they just paid more attention to the software side and gave us a direct way to chat with them One other thought, try disabling windows firewall temporarily as that can cause issues

That is an american style fire station alarm, when its red it means it has detected movement inthe frame. If you have your camera set up to only record when there is movement then it will only record when that red alarm shows. I have bushes and trees in my video that constantly set off the red icon so just leave the camera recording 24/7. If you go into the Config cog, then click on Parameter Settings, click on your camera, click on Alarm Setting, you can then toggle it on or off, the sensitivity and the recording options mate
