When I go to the timeline to review the footage there are multiple several hour gaps in the footage. I cannot review any footage in these gaps, it just appears blank. Is there anyway to fix this?

Hi @GO6

 

Are you still experiencing these gaps within your timeline?

Yes, there are still large gaps in each day’s recordings.

this has happened to me a few times, and during critical moments.

 

Sometimes it's b/c the recording feature got triggered, so it recorded to the library and created a gap int he CVR timeline. Sometimes it was just missing.

HI @JehovahsFitness 

 

I have a few questions for you.

  1. Which cam has CVR?
  2. When are they getting gaps?
  3. Do you have a timestamp in the last 24 hours I can look in to?

Sorry, this was months ago on an Ultra camera

Hi @GO6

 

After reviewing your devices, I see that there may be some interference between your router & base station. Can you please move the Base Station away from the router & test again. Your base is providing a signal of -5dBm, so there's a really high likelihood it is interfering. Also your camera "Driveway" has marginal signal. Moving the base station may help bring a stronger signal to this camera.

Hi @JehovasFitness

 

Does you Ultra camera with the gap issue have a name?

When is this camera receiving gaps in CVR? 

Do you have a timestamp in you timeline of where a gap is?

I would like to look in to your account with this information.

The Ultra is the one labeled "Stairs"

 

It's been a while since I had an issue, or a need to check the CVR timeline, so I'm unsure of when it happened.
