OSD means On-screen display content, it includes camera name, date/time, position settings, more distinct OSD, watermark, and privacy mask.

Applies to: All Reolink cameras and NVRs

  • Camera Name: Users can set the camera name and choose to display it on the video or not.
  • Date/Time: Users can modify the camera date/time and choose to display it on the video or not.
  • Position settings: Users can change the OSD content (including the name and date/time) position on the screen.
  • More Distinct OSD: Users can enable it to make the OSD content more distinct on the screen when the background is white.
    Note: This option is only for the old hardware cameras. For the new hardware cameras, it will add a black border for the content automatically when the background is white.
  • Watermark: Users can enable/disable the watermark (shows the Reolink logo) on the screen.
    Note: This option is only for the new hardware cameras. Argus 2/Pro does not support this option.
  • Privacy Mask: Users can set the privacy mask for the camera to mask some areas.
    Note: Motions in the masked area will also be detected (except for the AI detection of the AI battery-powered cameras) if you didn't clear the motion detection area for it . And the camera in the WiFi NVR kit doesn't support this option.
