Arlo Pro 4 CVR Option

[UPBestPet]

We recently installed a set of 3 Arlo Pro 4 wireless cameras and want CVR (24/7 recording) for only one of the cameras.

Can we subscribe to just CVR or do we have to subscribe to another plan and have CVR as an additional option/cost?

If we to subscribe to a plan to have CVR as an Add-On can we have that subscription and CVR for just that single camera?

CVR is its own subscription (and is single-camera only.  If you get the normal Secure plan with unlimited cameras, you'd also get motion recordings and smart notifications for that camera.  If you just get two single camera Secure subscriptions for the other cameras, then you'd lose that.

Not sure if you know this, but CVR also requires

• that the camera be paired with an Arlo hub (and not connected to your home wifi)
• the the camera be powered with the AC charger (not solar). 

It's been quite a while since I tried it, but I didn't find it very useful.  The timeline is hard to navigate, and there were gaps.  Also, there is no way to download a segment of the feed.  You have to record your screen while playing it back.
