Hello

 

My base station is a VMB4000r3. In the past month or so, all 6 cameras that are attached record for only 1 second each. Motion detection is working great, the video quality is terrible. None the less, only 1 second recordings. I've tried adjusting the settings for recording until motion has stopped and set fixed recording times. It does not seem to care and will still only record 1 second.

 

Any thoughts on things to try?

 

Thanks!

Start with rebooting the base and maybe reinserting camera batteries.

I would try removing and resyncing a camera to see if that helps. If so, do the rest. Note that you'll have to rebuild any custom modes and settings when you do this. Also, if the resync doesn't help, a reset and a fresh start may be needed. Remove all devices from Settings, My Devices and give it a clean start. Note all settings, modes, rules and schedule before doing this to speed the rebuild.
