Model: Tapo D130  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.1.8

The only resolutions for this doorbell are 2K 5MP and 960P, I would like to have a 720p resolution.

 

Why? the lower resolution would stress less my router.

 

I currently have 6 cameras at the same time on my network. 5 of them are at 720p but only the doorbell is at 960p.

 

btw, while only the cameras would not pose a problem, I have many other devices connected to the network.

Do you need to watch all cameras at the same time? There isn't much-required bandwidth when the camera is in standby mode.

Do you need to watch all cameras at the same time?

 

Yes. I am using these cameras to perform AI model inference in real time.

 

There isn't much-required bandwidth when the camera is in standby mode. 

 

Don't get me wrong, tapo cameras are okay for a first try regarding AI detections... but they are pratically impossible to use in the real world because even when using the lowest sensivity:

 

  • Any movement could trigger the 'movement detection'
  • My tree that is outside is viwed as a 'person' at night because the light creates a shadow on the curtain
  • Line tresspassing just does not work for me, any changes on that region activates it
  • My doorbell detects everyone walking outside and I just desactivated the detections.
  • My 6 cameras would just notify every ten seconds
  • I used Wireshark to monitor the network activity and the cameras were a big problem.

 

I don't need 960p resolution, I don't even need 15fps of rtsp stream, I could work with 5fps...

 

I know that they are ONVIF complaiant, since I never worked with it then I don't know much but I would love if I could manually change the rtsp stream settings myself because I know what I am doing.

Do you have any solution for controling the streams of the cameras?

another thing, 720p will consume less space in the micro sd card that I am using inside the doorbell.
