  @AABBCC_CCBBAA 

 

So, I have loaded the latest firmware 1.3.3.

This is still not good.

After movement ceases the camera stays fixed on the last position while recording for 30 seconds. Then the camera returns to its home position (while still recording).

So events are still being missed as the camera is now looking at the home position and not where the last movement ceased.

 

THESE TIMES NEED TO BE CONFIGURABLE.

1. CONFIGURE THE LENGTH OF RECORDING TIME AFTER THE LAST MOVEMENT HAS BEEN DETECTED.

2. CONFIGURE THE LENGTH OF TIME BEFORE

THE CAMERA RETURNS TO ITS HOME POSITION

 

Regards

  @Alf-63 Thanks for replying.  I have installed the update and for me, it has fixed the issue.  I'm no longer getting 4 or more silly little recordings and missed events.

There is still no configurable recording time option which seems a sensible addition and I don't believe it would be hard to implement but for some reason Tapo don't seem keen on the idea.
