Live Viewing but no Motion Detect Recording

Hello everyone.

I just purchased the Arlo Pro 4 Cameras w/ Base Station. SIgnal and performance has been great so far. I have it set to record on motion until movement stops. One concern, while I was streaming live to watch plumbers work on my sewer, the motion detect did not record once I went into Live mode. Is this by design? Do I have to manually record when in Live as motion detect will not do this unless I go away from Live stream? Thanks.

Yes... When you go to LIVE VIEW, you are over-riding the ARMED command.... In order to get a recording you must manually start a record session ( target icon )

That was what I assumed. Any chance in the future the Armed Command continues to function as is despite going into Live Mode?

Thanks.
