Would love a "records motion that lasts at least" feature like my kasa cameras

After upgrading some of my cameras to tapo and using the tapo app, the one thing I wish the tapo cameras could do is to record only after sensing a specific duration of motion. My kasa cameras (still an option in the tapo app) have a feature available that says "records motion that lasts at least" and you can select from a range of 0.1 to 5 seconds. This saved my sanity because I wouldn't get 20 notifications overnight of a new spider web. Or from rain. Or car headlamps briefly flashing into my activity zone. 

 

After switching to tapo, I've tried playing with all the settings like zones and sensitivity, but I just can't reduce it to tolerable level. With my kasa cameras, I set it for about 2-4 seconds depending on what they were facing and it was such a blessing. 

 

Maybe there is a feature in tapo cameras that is equivalent that I just havent found yet? If so I'd love to know!

This is not a setting currently available in Tapo, at least not in the several Tapo cameras I own.  I do know its a feature available in Kasa Cameras and it can be access on Kasa cameras that are being controlled in the Tapo app.  I am reporting this to the PM team for a possible future update.
