I set my recording timefor 2 minutes to avoid the issue as much as possible. Also, don't forget that the motion still has to be detected following the same rules as the initial motion (across the FOV, starting at an edge) which may not happen.</P> Thu, 15 Sep 2016 15:26:50 GMT jguerdat 2016-09-15T15:26:50Z https://community.arlo.com/t5/Features/How-long-does-it-take-the-arlo-camera-to-start-recording-again/m-p/1135906#M9426 <P>How long does it take arlo camera to start recording again after it has detected motion. In other words, it sees motion and records...it gets to the end of the thirty seconds but there is still motion going on, when is it going to start recording again? I've noticed it will detect motion, record for the 30 seconds I've set it to, and if you continue the motion I would think it would start right up again, but it doesn't.&nbsp; How long does it take to reset itself so it will start recording again?</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> Mon, 03 Oct 2016 03:48:05 GMT https://community.arlo.com/t5/Features/How-long-does-it-take-the-arlo-camera-to-start-recording-again/m-p/1135906#M9426 SabrinaS 2016-10-03T03:48:05Z https://community.arlo.com/t5/Features/How-long-does-it-take-the-arlo-camera-to-start-recording-again/m-p/1135912#M9427 <P>It seems to vary according to who knows what but maybe 30 seconds?
