My new DCS-2132L has had persistent audio static clicking. I've tried everything under the sun, with no resolution. The noise is present on different operating systems, different computers, in D-ViewCam and when accessing the camera directly via both Firefox and Explorer browsers. The static noise also makes it's way into recorded video, both on-board and via D-View Cam. I've tried numerous configuration combinations on the camera, in an attempt to isolate the issue. The only additional insight gained was that sometimes the microphone turns off by itself, and toggling it off and on in the camera would turn the microphone on again.

The ability for a check box/radio button to enable the whole field of view for motion detection.  This would prevent users from having to use the worst internet browser in existence to highlight a grid.  Either that, or just make the grid work with chrome and/or firefox.

Not really firmware, but the ability to download the active X component for IE independently.

- Option to fix daylight/light problem. When it’s daylight and camera is directed towards the window to outside, camera cannot (automatically) correct the daylight/light. When I watch live streaming I see only white picture.
I tried with my iPhone 4 camera and the iPhone 4 camera automatically fixes the light problem.
Solution/Fix: I found out that 'Anti Flicker' option in Setup/Image Setup, if ON it make a white noise in daylight, if OFF it's better and I can see some off outside.  
- I would like to see "Rotate" option for the camera. It has the Mirror and Flip, but I miss the Rotate left or Rotate right 90º.
- More than 2 events in Event Setup (3 or 4 events would be great).
- Automatic Firmware update or check if there is a new Firmware and direct download and update option.
- Maximum frame rate of 30 (I think that camera supports up to 30 fps).
- Motion detection, select more than one area (better option to set 3-4 or more areas).
- Backup data from SD card to FTP/NAS with schedule.
- Better SD card delete option, to delete the folder and subfolders and files with one click.
- Option to disable the build in microfon.
- Dropbox cloud service support (add camera to Dropbox for backup).
- IE 10 support (now sometimes frizzing, cannot select other button in menu - not responding).
- Video Clip / Pre-event recording 0-15 Second(s) or more, Maximum duration 1-200 or more, Miximum file size 10000 Kbytes or more.

Are you saying that this is already fixed since anti-flicker corrects the issue?

No, it is not fixed. The image gets over-exposured in bright light/snowy conditions even if the anti-flicker option is OFF. This is clearly a bug and should be fixed in 2132L firmware. Also I would very much like to see the FTP overwrite function in next FW release.

Motion detection config also with other browser like Firefox and Safari etc.
Now this function works only with the IE

Able to switch on/off PIR Motion detection only just like my DCS-942L. The PIR motion detection is a better alternative for the camera in regards to the room it's used in. I use the Surveillance Station on my Synology NAS and this setup works well with the DCS-942L. 

As a side note, please let me know if I'm using the camera incorrectly in regards to switching PIR detection only on.

Thanks,

My PIR motion detection is turned off on my 2132L. I'm not sure what you are talking about?

I don't have a Synology NAS.  But that setup appears to be under the Event Setup->SERVER option, which is unrelated to Event Setup->EVENT, which I detail below:


I set up the event trigger option for PIR or MOTION DETECTION (which uses the motion detection settings you set (sensitivity and percentage and location areas))

If I wanted to add PIR, I would create another event for PIR.

[jpms]

Hi thanks for the response. I don't use the D Link software at all so that event trigger wont work for me and possibly others who choose to use the Synology surveillance station software instead.

Like I said, the 942L and the 5222L have the ability to switch the PIR on and off in the motion detection settings page (this is a check box). I then let the camera handle movement detection via PIR only and then it records it via the Surveillance station software to the NAS.

I'm sure that this ability can be added to this camera via firmware.
