How do I store and access my 4K videos locally instead of paying for expensive subscriptions?

If you want to access the 4K videos from the app, then you need a smarthub (VMB4540 or VMB5000). Then you can set up direct access to local storage: https://kb.arlo.com/000062337/What-is-Direct-Storage-Access-and-how-do-I-use-it

There are some limitations you should be aware of:

Recordings only accessible in the app (not the browser)
Recordings only accessible to the primary account (not friend accounts)
No Manual Recordings or Snapshots
No thumbnails
Remote access requires router setup (either port forwarding or a home VPN), which some find difficult.
