Hi Yah,

Two new cameras cameras installed with base station.  Have tried numerous different settings in cameras, flickering setting etc and check forum but to no avail.

 

Desktop My Arlo admin:
The camera footage continual flickers on both cameras and when the video is downloaded that to shows the flickering.

When initially started up the cameras and base station did a firmware update, so I'm guessing they have the latest installed.

Android App:
Same flickering footage...again in app& when downloaded

 

I was led to believe Arlo were the best on the market but not too impressed with what I have...I can say there is no flicker in Night Mode.

Am I missing something obvious?

 

Thanks in advance

Look in the base station settings and you will find a flicker adjustment setting.  Normally it is set to "auto".  Try setting it to match your power line frequency (50 or 60 Hz).

Hi Yah Stephen,

 

First thing I tried, we're in New Zealand which is 50Hz, I've tried on both settings 50 & 60 no difference at all  😞

The good and bad news is that you didn't miss anything.  There are others from New Zealand here (and their systems work). Hopefully one of them will chime in.
