If you mean that when the mode changes you get a recording, that's not normal. Things to try are to recreate any modes you're using (and the schedule if using that) as well as removing the cameras and start fresh.

Yes, to make sure there's nothing goofy in the existing ones.

Go to the various camera settings, click on the section at the top with the camera name and choose to remove the camera at the bottom. Note that will remove any settings in your automations, too.

Gday..sorry  but needed to wait 24 hours to see if fixed.

Did all you suggested. Restarted cameras and automations..no change

Just a thought..I have "record a video " action on both cameras in my automations.

Could that be the problem..do motions etc be recorded without adding those actions...

Those actions are needed so the camera records on detection but have no bearing on recording when the mode switches (or at least aren't supposed to). Use Settings, Support (Center) to select your camera model. Scroll down to Contacts to start talking to official support.
