My Amcrest AD410 doorbell encodes 2K (2560x1920) video at 15fps 24/7, and my previous Nest camera did 1600x1200 at 30fps 24/7. I guess it is more a limitation of their specific product than of the category in general.
- ComputerGuru 4y agoAs resolution goes up, frame rate goes down. Most IP cams let you choose where on the resolution vs fps divide you want to be.
- exhilaration 4y agoI'm curious about your setup. I've got a Nest doorbell camera and would love to stop sending my video to Google. Do you get notified when there's someone outside your door? Or a notification that someone rang your bell? What app do you use on your phone? What about intercom functionality, is there a way to replicate that?
- heywire 4y agoI have it set up with the Amcrest app, so I still get notifications, I can do two-way audio, etc. The motion / person detection is happening on-device, as it is not sending a stream to Amcrest. I don’t subscribe to their cloud storage plan, but I do have a micro SD card in the device, so it stores clips of detected motion and people that play back in the app as if I did. The feed to my NVR is secondary to all of that. Their app is not as polished as the Nest app, but it is sufficient. From what I understand though, after Nest moved everything under Google, their app isn’t as good anymore either.

- heywire 4y agoYou’re right, I was going based on their description. It’s actually higher than 2K. https://amcrest.com/4mp-wifi-camera-doorbell-ad410.html https://amcrest.com/4mp-wifi-camera-doorbell-ad410.html
