I have a mix of both Pro & Pro 2 cameras on the same base, and within the last week only about 50% of the recorded videos playback off of all 4 cameras??? This problem is on my galaxy note 8 app and also my chrome browser. everything worked fine before. The same videos that wont playback on my phone will not playback on my desktop. they just keep saying loading. while the other half of videos playback fine. Any ideas? Kinda useless if the important videos are the ones that dont play.

Hey @Kirk-Buente,

 

Are you able to download the video through your device or desktop and see if you are able to view the video that way?

Thank you for the response.

That did work, my phone played the video. but no sound. it says it has an audio codec error??

When you download the video through your computer, do you also experience the same issue/error?

I just tried it. It will play video with no sound on my computer if I download it. That still sucks, sound is kinda important. I wonder if I did a reboot on the base station since all 4 cameras are doing the same?

Try to reboot your base station if all your cameras are experiencing the same problem and see if it fixes the issue.

That did not help, I dont want to do the factory reset if I dont have to because I think that involves bringing all the cameras back in to the base station to reset. But that might be my next step?
