Arlo Pro 2 - Records after motion stops

Richpdm — Mon, 20 Nov 2017 18:35:50 GMT

I have four Arlo Pro 2 cams running on the rule to stop recording after motion stops (up to 300 seconds.)

Three cams are working fine, but one on the front porch continues to record for the full 5 minutes even after motion stops.

I double checked the rule and turned down the motion sensitivity to 70% without improvement.

The camera is in a corner pointing out (i.e. there's a wall to the left and right of the camera at 90 degrees)

Any suggestions? Could it be that the position is causing some kind of motion detection feedback that keeps the camera in record mode?

Thanks!

Swap this camera's position with one of the others and see if the behaviour continues and if it's related to the camera or the location

A few others have seen this, too. I don't recall if/how it was fixed but I would start by removing the camera from Settings, My Devices and resync it. Verify the firmware is up to date and try again.

Thanks to you both.

1) Good idea to swap cameras

2) Firmware is up to date, but will try resetting the camera and re-sync if #1 indicates it's the camera rather than the location.

Would prefer not to remount the camera, but if #1 and #2 don't work I can try modifying the location to be out of the corner.

There have been on and off issues with the 'record till motion stops'....

If swapping doesn't help, I'd recommend just going to the longest fixed time for your needs
