It's a conspiracy... they're out to get you, tin foil needed . 🙂

Do you want me to tell you the oblivious answer... reboot / reset /start over

( honest , can't tell u, I stopped using the schedule )

Hula_Rock,

A camera will only record if it s set to a mode containing a rule telling it to record upon detecting motion (for example: Armed, or any custom rule you may have created). Are you sure you had the above schedule active at the time these recordings were made?

Are you still seeing recordings from this camera during that time?

I am well versed on this system and report oddities that I find. Looking at these screen shots it clearly shows the camera are programmed as "OFF": I got 10 recordings starting at 6:14 PM!!!!!!!!!

Hula_Rock,

I understand you are well versed on the system (no offense was intended). Anything you may already know that I include in my posts is for the benefit of the community as a whole (those who may not know).

I appreciate your report. Are you still seeing this behavior? Or was this a one-off occurrence?

I fixed the issue. I had to unmount the camera for the HUNDRETH time and had to reset it and add it back .....

If this occurs so frequently, is it possible that you have a bad device? Does swapping around make a difference? I know you know all these things but maybe frustration has gotten the upper hand.

Ya, Frustration has NOT gotten the upper hand, I have a "peice of mind" that I have wired cameras PROTECTING zones of interest. I use "Ar-Slow" <<<<< (see what I did there ?) only to complement my FOSCAMS.

Heres the thing, understanding that "Bugs" exsist, this product should be 95% ironed out. Operational costs gets affected when a software bug introduces random recordings outside of its programmed perameters DRAINING YOUR BATTERIES, thats whats frustrating ......
