Considering this tutorial is completely useless for those with only the 'SD Card' option, here is a breakdown for those that need help with recording extended footage (ie more than 4 or 5 seconds!). If there is another video about this, D-Link should really place a link in the description. If no video, they should really make one. 1. Go to advanced settings as shown in the video. 2. Click on 'Event Setup' (NOT SD Card) 3. 4 boxes will show where you can change settings. 4. Make sure the first box has SD Card selected. 5. Click on 'Record Media' and change the maximum size AND maximum duration to fit your needs. HD will need larger file size maximum. Note: You may have to play around with this to get the best fit for you. 6. Change 'Event' and/or 'Recording' settings to what is preferable to you. Event is motion detection and Recording is regular recording. Make sure to save all of your changes and give the camera a minute or two update with new clips. *Disclaimer.... This worked for me but no guarantee this will work for you. You are responsible for any changes you make to your camera, not me!
+scorpionscythe Thanks, this was very helpful. I too could not see the "SD Recording" option and thanks to your post I made my 2132L record to the SD card, although the options were tiny bit different (you first have to add "Server", for whatever reason). Thank you!
this guy knows whats up... thank you!!! such a relief finding this comment. Worked like a charm. Was about to write a stronlgy worded letter to D-Link. "Easy set up" my a$$ lol.
Thank you for taking the time to share this. I was getting so frustrated until I seen your comment. D-Link seriously needs to add a link to this video with updated information.
Hi, may I have a question? I have a DCS-2132Lcamera, and I do not have the SD recording button on the left (but I do have the SD Card link on the left), so how can I set up for SD card recording? Thanks.
Are the videos recorded to the SD card available to viewing using iphone app?? Does the camera send notifications when motion is detected by email or to the app itself/ Thxz
I've been trying to format an SD card for hours. Always the same message "SD card is busy, whether or not to delete the SD card data?". Click OK, and bar appears indicating 1% of progression, and nothing else happens! BUSY? why busy if the camera isn't doing anything?
+tritoobe I had this problem with a 32gb SD and finally gave up and changed to another card. The second card worked great. It might be that your SD card is fried. I have not gone back on my PC to test the first card, to see if I could format it, or clean it. Perhaps you could try that, once you wipe it or format it with a PC then try running the format in the camera? Good luck!
when i click Advanced, it gives me a very different screen from yours. I need help. I have had this camera for over a year, and still cannot get it to record
My problem is that I dont know my admin details when I try using my IP address to change my settings. I've tried my dlink account stuff n nope. I'm stuck
What if somebody rips the camera off the wall and now you don't have the SD card with the footage is whatever was being recorded can I look at it on my phone even though I don't have the SD card anymore because someone had stolen it please let me know thank you
Dlink software is junk. After updating , now i can't view at all. They knew the problem but never fix it. Now it's just junk. Can't view, can't playback. Even if you are standing right in front of the camera. It's just useless craps. Good luck to those paying subscription.
Their Products and Apps are so complicated. I regret buying the camera DCS-2530L comes with the sd slot. I dont know why they say in the box that their installation for the cameras are quick. In addition their service for the app os super slow. So mich BS for wanting to watch playback on your camera ! Like really this company is FALSE ADVERTISING !! WHY DONT YOU PIT IN THE BOX THAT BEFORE YOU BUY THE CAMERA PEOPLE SHOULD BE AWARE THAT THEY HAVE TO INSTALL AND Download A BUNCH OF SOFTWARE ON THE COMPUTER TO FORMAT THE SD CARD. STOP PUTTING THAT IT IS "EASY TO SET UP" 😡😡 GOING TO RETURN MINE CAMERA THAT IT !
The Dlink camera I have just purchased is literally one of the worst products I have ever bought. Won't be buying another dlink product, that's for sure

You know your menu in 2018 is completely different right?
hi! thanks and gratz for the video. how long I can record on a 32gb sdcard? or how many MB per minute At low res? tnx
I don't have the option either, just a generic 'sd card' option where I can't change recording time.
How do you change the recording time now? because I want to change the recording time from 5 seconds to at least 10 seconds
So I don't have to have the computer always on for it to records rite? Just put in the SD card correct?
How do you wipe data from the SD card. Mine shows dates going back for years even though I erased the videos

Hi, there is no SD management option!
will try it with my Xeoma software, thanks!
This video is outdated, they menu shown no longer exists in MyDlink setup
Doesn't say SD recording or management - it only says SD Card. Please.. solve this. PLEASE.
Same here
Why won’t this work with Safari which comes with iPads?

I've had this camera for a bit and it's junk. It has a echo effect if you make a loud noise and people disappeared on the vid.
Dlink software is junk. After updating , now i can't view at all. They knew the problem but never fix it. Now it's just junk. Can't view, can't playback. Even if you are standing right in front of the camera. It's just useless craps. Good luck to those paying subscription.
I don,t give to entry in this page to configurate my dlink
