I had a unwanted man in my yard last night and the video only did 9 seconds and only when he was with reaching distance, I wanted to know how he got in my yard and where and can not see. Do I need to subscribe to a plan for the cameras to be better or is this what I get. Thank you</P> Tue, 21 Apr 2020 14:51:59 GMT https://community.arlo.com/t5/Arlo/Only-records-8-9-seconds-after-person-is-within-5-ft-Need-to/m-p/1767210#M75363 Melissatolliver 2020-04-21T14:51:59Z https://community.arlo.com/t5/Arlo/Only-records-8-9-seconds-after-person-is-within-5-ft-Need-to/m-p/1767330#M75393 <P>Read the FAQs here on changing settings and creating custom modes.
