Did I make a mistake switching to Tapo cameras?
I had a whole Arlo setup and is was passable at best. The subscription killed it for me. During the last Amazon prime sale I bought the C675D to put over the garage, D130 doorbell, C236, C5560WS, C260 and the H500 hub with a 1tb ssd to record everything.
The video quality is very good. Everything is so clear.
It would be nice if the C675D actually recorded motion. I thought that the moving camera would record any motion that the wide view camera picked up, but only when it wants to.
Someone can walk across half the screen, but it wont start the recording until after they have passed the midway point and i see them walking away. I want it to track someone the entire way from left to right or vice versa.
You can see in the screen shots where the recordings begin. The first photo with the bike, the kid walked the whole way across with the dog and it didn't record until the mom was halfway across. This is unacceptable for a security camera.
All detection sensitivity is set at max for everything. No restricted areas. What strange is the camera will pickup kids playing basketball 3 doors down, but can't track someone directly in front of the house half the time.
Could my camera be bad? I can't think of anything else.
Another issue is I have to go in and out of the camera to get the recordings list to show up.
