HomeKit Secure Video recordings finally work again after tvOS 26.5

Finally, my camera recordings are working again after the tvOS 26.5 update.

I have had issues with my Eufy cameras connected to HomeKit Secure Video for probably close to a year. The cameras are set up to record to iCloud, but for the last year it has been completely random whether events were actually saved or not.

After updating to tvOS 26.5, everything suddenly works perfectly again. People, animals, and motion are detected, notifications are coming through, and recordings are being saved to iCloud exactly like they should.

For the past year it has been a total lottery whether anything was recorded, so this is a pretty big relief.

Edit: I have an Apple TV 4K 1st generation as my HomeKit hub.
