Green box - no image

JK2015 — Wed, 28 Sep 2016 21:28:17 GMT

2 of my 3 cameras show up with the last image and how long ago it was taken. The 3rd one only show a green box and the time is from when I intalled it almost a month ago.

All three capture video and motion well - just the one always show's green box. Same on other computers, and other phones

Thoughts?

Try opening the battery door, remove the batteries, put batteries back in and re-sync.

Gave that a try - no luck. Still shows the green box with the date of original activation

Thanks

Using g the app or browser, remove the camera in Settings and try to re-sync it. If that doesn't work with a new set of batteries, create a trouble ticket for a possible RMA.

I have the same issue. I have replaced the batteries, re-synched the camera (twice) and still get the same performance. The camera works--it records when it detects motion. There is no image, just a green box when not recording. I have a total of four cameras--three with an image, one without.

Any other suggestions?

I have the same issue with two of my cameras. . I added 4 cameras to my initial 3 camera system. . The first 2 new cameras worked with no issues but the last 2 additions are giving me the Green screen. Will try the "remove and resync" process...

MGJ,

Did you remove the camera before attempt ting to resync? Settings > My Device > click affected camera > Remove Device. After removing the device, go back through the sync process. Once the camera is synced, Live stream the camera and test to make sure the thumbnail is displayed.

I have the same issue added a 5th camera and all it shows is a green screen and 0 recordings. It is recording on motion just like the other four. It has always just showing the green screen was 0 Recordings. I have removed it Andrey synced it twice and still the same results. Obviously I am NOT the only one with this issue! C Cleghorn

ccleghorn1960,

The behavior of the alert counter has changed slightly from the way it worked in the past. For details on it's current intended behavior see here: Arlo media counter optimized

Have you live streamed the camera that is showing the green screen at least once after the resync?
