I just Installed 4 Arlo cameras around my house. The problem I’m having is I’m recording the tail end of things coming toward the cameras, I.e. car, dogs tail, my butt. It’s like I need to post a sign that says “if you are going to rob me, please do it in slow motion. If you don’t, I won’t be able to record you”. HELP! I have all 4 at different distances and they are all doing the same. Pam

Positioning and sensitivity settings are important. Read the FAQ here on best positioning practices. Motion is best detected when across the FOV, not at the camera. DIstance plays a part with people detection only about 20 feet out for these cameras. Increasing the sensitivity in your modes and rules may be needed to capture what you need.

 

Post screenshots of your cameras' views for suggestions.
