Cam recording while turned off

Just realized that 2 of my 6 cameras have started recording even while turned off. And yes I’ve double-checked and triple-checked - they are definitely turned off. I’ve deleted both until I figure out what’s going on.

Is this a known bug?

Would you please explain why you believe that the cameras are recording when turned off? I know I haven’t experienced that nor have I seen anyone else post about it.

Woke up this morning and checked my overnight “events” in the app. I only had the garage camera turned on over night, but there were morning events from two other cameras. Verified that those cameras were turned off. Turned them on and then off again and they continued to record and display events.

What kind of cameras, and what firmware version?

Cam V3
Firmware 4.36.8.26 up-to-date

All of them or just the ones recording?

All of them. Have 6 identical cameras. All with the same firmware version. Only 2 seem to have the recording-while-off problem.

Were you viewing events from the Events tab at the bottom of the app? Do you have an SD card in these 2 cameras?

Yes, I am also wondering when the SD card timeline showed the camera was on (light blue timeline). And do you have any Rules defined that record a clip from those cameras?
