Welcome to the forum @MyNewQuestion. Only events are stored on the cloud. It is recommended to use SD card set at continuous recording. The larger the card the longer the span of recordings.
Thanks for the reply.
Seems like that is norm. Unable to find any company that will record 24x7.
Figure if the camera is stolen, the Event in the Cloud may not have enough video without having constant recording.
Is that still the case? I remember that was supposed to be corrected:
I don’t recall seeing anything specific about an implementation after that, though, nor have I read about anyone experiencing it or trying to test it, so I don’t know what the current status is.
Not sure I’d say that is completely true. Amcrest cameras are reasonably priced and, when paired with an Amcrest NVR, very effective. Cost comparison would need to include any Wyze subscription to achieve a valid comparison. I think the cost differential would be recovered in just a couple of years and no recurring subscriptions.
Right, and that topic was what led to an extensive discussion in the Fix-It Friday topic that I linked, which is the last communication I recall seeing from Wyze on the issue.
What’s the evidence? I haven’t seen any either way, which is the basis for my previous comment. That’s why I don’t know what the current status is.
I remember Jason mentioned a desire to resume those after the beginning of this year, but my understanding is that this was contingent upon Wyze hiring assistants for him, and I don’t know the status of that, either. I have an unrelated Cam Pan v3 issue that I’d really like to get on a list, because it seems to be affecting more and more users.
Making assumptions is easy to do. I do it, too. I try to find evidence when I can, though, or at least ask questions to minimize chances of assumptions.
I think automatic locking of new topics was enabled for the Forum last spring, so if there are no new posts to keep something active then most topics will eventually not allow new replies (topics in categories like Wishlist are exceptions, I believe). FYI, if you encounter a locked topic but want to continue that discussion, you can use the “Reply as linked Topic” feature to create a new topic that links back to the locked topic in order to try to maintain the conversational chain. If someone can demonstrate that this is still an issue, then I would expect something like that to happen.
