Is there a way to make it record a few seconds before motion or people are detected?

I just got my cameras installed and whenever motion is detected, the recording I get shows only the end of the motion. It there a way to make it record a few seconds before motion or people are detected? Thanks

Hi SSCamaro,

 

You might need to try re-positioning your camera or change the motion sensitivity on your camera. Try reading here to read how to optimize motion detection on your Arlo camera: How do I optimize motion detection for my Arlo camera?

Plug the camera in to a/c. They work SO much better. I was having the same issue with one of them due to its location but now it works great. Remember, motion coming directly at the camera does not get seen very well. But once plugged in it will give you the 3 second pre recording info.
