Arlo Q Plus - Invert does not work with Activity Zones

chainsaw2k — Thu, 21 Sep 2017 20:49:53 GMT

There have been other posts about this, but the problem still isn't fixed. I have a camera that I have mounted upside down. I use the website to configure activity zones for that camera. But the activity zones don't work properly. It would seem that they aren't getting inverted along with the image. So in effect, they are detecting motion in the flip of the image.

Now, you might think that you could workaround this by flipping the activity zones. I've had trouble with that.

You also might think that you could workaround this by leaving the image upside down, and just living with that. But then Arlo Smart isn't going to work very well, because an upside-down dog doesn't look much like a dog anymore, I would expect the machine learning to be confused.

I would really appreciate this problem being solved.

My zones with an inverted Q seem to be working fine. Try resetting the camera until the LED flashes amber, resync and then invert. Set up your zones and use them in your rules. Any luck?
