EZVIZ cameras will stream
through our cloud server and to save bandwidth there will be a 5 minute
time out. To avoid this you will need to stream the camera on the same LAN . F irst
1. Make sure the phone or computer is connected to the same WiFi as the EZVIZ camera
2. Go into the EZVIZ app or studio software and sign into your account
a. From the app, go to more bottom right and look for Function Settings
b. Open Function Settings and tap on LAN live view
c. Start the scan and your device will appear
d. Tap on the camera and input t he verification code underneath the camera
a. From the s tudio, there is a button under the login that says “Devices on LAN
b. Open the tab and you will see your device on there
c. C lick the camera and type in the verification code for the camera

 

NOTE. this option only works for WiFi cameras

    Hi!

    I preformed that solution provided but I still experience the 5 min. Why? What else can be done? I use the camera as my baby monitor and I can't have it time out every five 5 min.

    Please help!

    So this method works for me. 

    1. Open the camera you wish to keep displaying and make it full screen. 
    2. Double tap the centre of the screen and you should go into grid view showing four reduced camera images
    3. Double tap the same camera image and wait a second and it should go full screen again
    4. After this the 5 minute timer should have turned off and you'll be able to watch it without interuption

    If this stops working then try using the Ezviz Studio application for Windows PC which does not seem to have the same time-out problem in my experience.
