Hi  @Jabteles , 

Yes! Often a car is parked in the detection zone. Is that a problem? I expected a car to be detected and a notification sent when a car moves in the detection zone.

Is this being triggered because of a movement outside the zone and my car inside the zone??? Strange.

What do you suggest? 

Reduce the detection zone to exclude my car?

Disable the car detection but leave all others on?

Thanks,

Richard

  @RE_ I guess this is a bug.. I was also receiving alerts and recordings for cars PARKED on my parking spot, not moving at all. My mitigation was to disable car detection and only enable movement detection. Of course that if you have other movements besides from car movement those will also be alerted and recorded, in my case this is not an issue that's why it works as a mitigation for me. But this bug must be looked into by Tapo 

Hi  @Wayne-TP , thanks for your reply.

The type of detection that gets triggered when I have car detection enabled is "car", but way outside of the zone.

That not only happens in the night and when the light cars get in the zone, but also during the day without car ligths or car shadows getting in the zone.

Now I have disabled the car detection, leaving only motion, person and pet detection.

There is only one zone and this seems to work fine.

It sometimes gets still triggered from outside the zone when bigger cars iluminate into the detection zone during the night, but that does not happen that often.

Enabling car detection for me is a no go. Cars get detected in the whole camera view and not only in the defined zone. Also if its only one zone for all.

Thanks,

Richard

Thanks  @Jabteles , your proposal worked fine! Disabling car detection at all helps a lot.

Still wondering why car detection triggers with cars completely out of the zone.

Thanks again, Richard
