Delay in recording time before it triggers? Seems like a 5 minute delay?

I currently have 2 wifi only cameras. They will record a 12 second video/sound clip and then there's a 5 minute delay before it will start recording again. Is there a delay in the recording time before the Arlo Go camera can be triggered again? Can this be set up to record constantly?

Sounds like you have the Wyze cameras (I dabbled in them before ditching them). Arlo cameras record for the time you specify followed by a brief reset period (~10 seconds) before being able to record again. Since these are battery-operated, continuous recording isn't possible, nor would you want it since it would chew through your data plan quickly. This is true even if you have it plugged in to AC power.
