Try rebooting the camera by removing and reinserting the battery to start with. It clears up a lot of quirks.

Is it possible that the camera is detecting motion and recording but Smart is deciding not to show the video because it's not selected in the Smart settings?

Activity zones might be suppressing the recordings. But not Smart - that only filters notifications.

@Moon78 : if you are using activity zones, try disabling them for a bit, and see if that explains the LED activity.

So the light is toggling on/off with no recordings saved in the cloud library?

Do you have local storage connected to the base? If so, look there for recordings also.
