Attempting to get Trendnet TV-IP311PI camera to save to ReadyNAS
Hi all - I think I must be doing something wrong - because I've wasted a few hours trying in vain to get my newly installed IP camera to use to NAS to save recordings to - and I've failed to do this ...

Looking at page 52 of the camera manual ( http://www.trendnet.com/support/supportdetail.asp?prod=210_TV-IP311PI ), I'd say you have the wrong file path.
From the screen shot, it is expecting the NAS IP address in the server address field, and /sharename in the file path field. You can also enter a username/password (perhaps "admin" and the NAS admin password).

Hi IanL-UK,
Welcome to the community!
Try to follow Stephen's suggestion and maybe that's where you got it wrong. If it still won't work, you can try to map the said share on your PC then try it again.

Hi both - thank you very much for the replies - and apologies for not responding sooner (work has been mad!)
The suggestion worked! (I guess I've spent too much time using Windows and become lazy).
I managed to allocate and 'format' the location for the files.
That said, I've not actually been able to get the camera to save there - but ... one step at a time I think I need to experiment more with the 'event' settings.
Once again, thank you for replying and providing the answer.
Best wishes,
Ian
