Issue:  I click on the videos for Camera 1.  The calendar shows a dot under today's date which is good because I have videos there.  The calendar also shows dots under the 5 days prior to today.  I do not have videos for this camera on those dates, but I do have videos on those dates for other cameras.  The calendar filtered by individual cameras is idicating available videos in the entire library instead of the individual selected camera.

 

This is a change in behavior.  It used to work properly in the web app.  It still works properly in the iOS app.

Hi @Macahi

 

There has been an update that was supposed to address this issue. Are you still experiencing this issue with your web filter (Calendar dot)?

Try a reboot of the base via the power button  ( off then on, let reset )

Thanks for the suggestion.  I did try that before, but just tried it again now just in case.  Nope.  The calendar still shows a dot where there are videos for other cameras and not the one I'm currently viewing.  This is an issue with the web portal design.

@JamesC , I've also been seeing this for a while (and I agree with @Macahi that it is a change in behavior).  I can't confirm that it is connected it to other cameras making recordings (I don't think I've ever had a day when there were no recordings from any camera). 

 

For instance, this particular camera hasn't made a recording since 5 December:

Yes, this is exactly the issue.  I can confirm that if there are no videos in the library from any camera in the system for a particular day, that day won't have a dot.  (i.e. 12/6)

This is still broken.  Can we get some kind of response that it's a known bug and is being worked on?  Or tell us that you think it's another brilliant design feature, or something.  Some official recognition of this bug would be appreciated.

As has been confirmed in this thread, it's not an end-user issue, it's a design issue.

Yes!  It does appear to now be fixed!  Thank you developers.

 

One down, several more really bad design flaws to go...

 

thanks!
