    <title>topic Re: iPhone XS Max On IOS 12 Is Not Playing Videos In Library in Arlo</title>
    <link>https://community.arlo.com/t5/Arlo/iPhone-XS-Max-On-IOS-12-Is-Not-Playing-Videos-In-Library/m-p/1640024#M57578</link>
    <description>&lt;P&gt;I’ve been following this thread since I posted my own comment two weeks ago. For those who have joined us recently, let me summarize what we’ve learned so far, plus I’m adding a few things I’ve learned recently.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;1. The problem &lt;U&gt;only&lt;/U&gt;&amp;nbsp;happens with iPhone Xs and Xs Max devices. It is &lt;U&gt;not&lt;/U&gt;&amp;nbsp;a problem with iOS 12, as anyone using iOS 12 on an iPhone other than the Xs models (or using any iPad) is &lt;U&gt;not&lt;/U&gt; having this problem.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;2. Since I started having the problem, I have enrolled my Xs Max in the iOS 12.1 beta. I am now on the current beta (16B5077c). The problem still occurs under this version as well. I have the latest Arlo app on my iPhone and all my cameras have the latest firmware. Specifically, the firmware revision on the camera model that doesn’t work is 1.2.21616.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;3. One person posted on this thread a while back that the updated GPU in the Xs and Xs Max is not compatible with Arlo’s FFmpeg. I have no idea if that’s correct but whoever that was (I can’t find the post right now) might be more knowledgeable about these things. It’s been years since I worked with FFmpeg. When it comes to video codecs, I’m an amateur at best. But, using some tools I found on the Internet, I was able to do a detailed comparison of a file created by the original Arlo camera model (VMC3030) and one made by an Arlo Pro (VMC4030). They are both H.264 format files but the “bad” one has a “Main@L4.0” encoding profile whereas the “good” one is “High@L3.0”. I googled for info on this — turns out the use of the “Main” profile declined once the “High” profile was developed. So there’s that, whatever that means.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;4. There have been a handful of posts from NETGEAR employees in this thread that engineering is aware of the problem and working on a solution. In the meantime, they recommend using a web browser to view the videos. I think this is possibly the most ridiculous thing anyone could suggest. The ENTIRE point of Arlo is to be able to easily view security footage on your phone when you’re away from home. By the time you get home to your computer so you can look at the video in a web browser, thieves may have stolen your computer! I still can’t believe anyone at NETGEAR or Arlo thinks this is a valid workaround. That is some bad messaging.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;5. It’s always true that you could discover that a new device is not compatible with older technology. So, although the idea that the original Arlo cameras may not work with the iPhone Xs is perhaps reasonable, THIS MODEL CAMERA IS STILL BEING SOLD. Company representatives posting comments in this thread is insufficient. They should have a big warning box in red text on the top of their&amp;nbsp;homepage stating that Arlo wire-free cameras are not currently compatible with iPhone Xs or Xs Max. It is reasonable to believe there are Xs users out there in the world who are going to buy an original-model Arlo camera today and have a totally bad user experience because this combination &lt;U&gt;does not work&lt;/U&gt;&amp;nbsp;and &lt;U&gt;no one is warning them&lt;/U&gt;.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;6. I know of no viable workaround at this time to get the movies to play on the Xs. If you use the download function to save a movie into your Camera Roll, it will have a generic white icon and is unplayable — it either does nothing or the iPhone crashes back to the Apple logo. The file itself is fine — if I use AirDrop to send it to my computer, the file plays fine there. I came up with one last idea to get around the problem — using email alerts. When video is recorded, the Arlo system can send a push notification to your Arlo app and/or it can send an email that contains a link to the video. Clicking this link opens the movie in Safari on the&amp;nbsp;iPhone rather than the Arlo app, so I thought it might be a workaround. Sadly, Arlo Pro movies work fine but videos recorded by the original model Arlo camera don’t play in the iOS version of Safari either.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I think that about covers all the bases. Hopefully Arlo will address these concerns with a proper statement &lt;U&gt;soon&lt;/U&gt;. These infrequent “please be patient” notes are &lt;U&gt;not&lt;/U&gt; cutting it.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Is anyone using an Arlo Pro system and the iPhone-iPad app running the beta of iOS 12 on them? If yes, do most functions (live viewing videos, push notifications, arming/disarming the system, etc)&amp;nbsp; seem to be working properly? Any issues or changes to be aware of with iOS 12?&lt;BR /&gt; &lt;BR /&gt; The Arlo iOS app and Arlo Pro firmware haven't been updated in months so I'm a bit nervous about iOS 12 compatibility (since iOS 12 is most likely releasing next week).&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;After switching to a new iPhone XS Max yesterday, &amp;nbsp;My video library wont work on the phone app. When I try to play a video, it acts like it’s playing, but the video is just a still. &amp;nbsp;The same videos still work on my iPad. &amp;nbsp;Also, it has even caused my phone to reboot a few times when I try to play the video. &amp;nbsp;I have took the app off and reinstalled it but that didn’t help. Any ideas?&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;I have exactly the same problem with my iPhone XS Max. Everything was fine until I upgraded from iPhone X (with iOS 12) yesterday. Arlo if fine on my iPad Pro with iOS 12. This appears to be peculiar to XS Max. I wonder if it is ok on the little XS. &amp;nbsp;I’ll bet it is a problem with the video driver for the Max.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Another iPhone&amp;nbsp;XS Max user here not being able to playback video.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I can live stream -but if I try to playback a saved video all I get is a frozen first frame.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;When I download/ save the video to my&amp;nbsp;&lt;SPAN&gt;iPhone&amp;nbsp;XS Max&lt;/SPAN&gt; all I get is a blank white screen video-&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I even tried to download on my iphone7 plus (plays&amp;nbsp;back fine) and airdropped to my Max with the same white screen issue.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I have uninstalled and reinstalled the app- tried to troubleshoot both over WiFi and on LTE with no positive outcome!&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Please address this ASAP- I love my&amp;nbsp;Arlo and rely on it to keep me and my family safe!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <title>Videos from Library aren't playing in App</title>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hello!&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I have a new (in the last couple days) iPhone XS Max running iOS 12 and videos in the application on the phone aren't playing. I can see the still image and it looks like they play but the image never changes. They play when I log into the website from my laptop.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I've tried restarting the app. Turnning the phone off, then on. Deleting the app and reinstalling it. Nothing seems to work. Guessing that it might be the new phone / OS isn't supported by Netgear yet but I wasn't sure.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Any help would be much appreciated.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Thanks!&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Chris&lt;/P&gt;</description>
