Ive got an ulta facing out the front of my house, hsve put on person only and set activity area to just cover to pathway
But it records evey movement even when nothing there, could even be a hedge moving
Any way of stopping it recording everything

Only persons means you will only get notification when a person is reconized but still records evrything

Setting up activity zones can help.  You could also try reducing the sensitivity in the rules - but activity zones generally work out better.

 

Note you can easily filter out "all other motion" when you go into the library.  Then you won't see the extraneous movement.

Not sure where rules sensitivity is but will adjust the activity zone

Rules are defined for each mode.  There's a rule for the ultra, and if you edit it you will see that you can set the motion sensitivity there.
