My Arlo pro 2 stops recording after bout 10-20 sec even though there is still motion. It then starts again however you miss what happens in between the recording

As mentioned many times here, if you're using record while motion continues, the CAMERA has to detect motion, not your eyes. Use the motion detection test if you need to determine where motion is detected for you sensitivity settings. Use a timed recording if that doesn't work for you.

Hey guy, noticed my Arlo pro 2 does not record something’s that r in constant motion. Also with constant motion recording stops between 51sec and 1:11 min

Well if I’m looking live from my phone I’m seeing what the camera sees. Which is motion.

The camera electronics does not trigger the motion event, the PIR sensor positioned directly below picks up changes in infrared level from the front of the camera.
This is why it is recommended to have the camera facing across a walkway rather than looking down along it.
The camera is only used to detect activity when activity zones are applied but this only works when it has already been already triggered by the PIR sensor.
Hope this helps.
