Save Videos on FTP Server / SMB share
Hi,
Many users have a Fritzbox Router or another router model that provides a simple FTP Server or SMB share functionality.
You can simply plugin a USB stick into our router and use it as NAS via FTP or SMB.
Unfortunately the TAPO C320WS does not provide a feature for saving the videos on an FTP server or an SMB share.
Would be great to have that feature. It would save money and energy because I would not have to by a dedicated NAS to store the recordings in my network.
Any solution would be highly appreciated.
Thanks!

I am just building up my house Wi-Fi with TP-Link Mesh Deco XE-74, and I am also actively looking for an PoE Outdoor Camera to be able to store videos on my custom SBM server. I have a raspberry with many functions. 1) It has a fine DAC, so I play music from Laptops and Phones via AirPlay over the network, then convert it to analogue audio and send it to my old analogue audio gear. 2) Have a home file server installed with USB3 attached hard disks through SMB server over Linux OS.
So for the SMB file server, it would be great to have an outdoor camera supporting SMB. In this way, I will have the possibility to add SSD storage without limits :)
Also opening the video files from any device from the local network accessing the file server.

It would be great to have support for FTP/SFTP, as well as the ability to send photos or recordings to the phone upon motion detection. Currently, recordings can only be saved while being on the same network, which is quite absurd. I have a cheap bulb camera that can do this without any issues. I was planning to purchase more cameras, but I will have to choose another manufacturer if these features are not available. I have Tapo C325WB
