For the past month the batteries on the cameras are going flat so quickly we are charging one of the 4 cameras daily. They are taking videos of waving trees now and that never used to happen I have tried turning motions sensitivity down from 75% to 20% and it is still happening. Getting really fed up! I am still under warranty.

Make sure you're setting sensitivity in your modes and rules, not the motion detection test. As for the false triggers, the angle of the sun constantly changes, leading to seasons where the reflected IR causes problems. If turning down sensitivity isn't working, your choice is to reposition the camera(s) to eliminate those trees and concentrate only on the area of real interest.

It seems odd that these steps were not at all necessary a month ago. Burglars use trees for cover too.
