Welcome to the Forum, @garysilverman! :wave:

What additional detail can you provide about your experience? Specifically:

  • What camera models are you using?
  • What subscription(s) (if any) are you using?
  • When did you notice these changes?
  • What recordings are you talking about (cloud, microSD, etc.)?
  • How are you trying to use your cameras and seeing changes in the recordings? What example applications can you provide where you’re using your cameras and not seeing results you expect?

Please provide more detail and start with your specific cameras. We should move this topic to a different category and add appropriate tags for better visibility within the community, and more information from you will help guide that move.

Crease,

Thanks for taking the time to get back to me.

The camera in question is the Wyze Cam v2.

I have a VCam Unlimited subscription.

I started noticing this about 2 weeks ago. The interesting thing is if I look at my history, it shows a length of 12 seconds, but when I play it, it stops after 5 seconds. This was for sound detection. Possibly, it automatically stops when the sound stops?

I’m referring to the Events captured by the cameras.

I’m using the Wyze app from the Google Play store.

Thanks again,

Gary

That could be. I don’t recall where I read it, but I have a vague recollection of recently reading something about a time limitation on recording sound-triggered events. :thinking:

Thanks for providing the additional detail, too. :+1:

I don’t have any hands-on experience with Cam v2, but since that has been added to your topic’s tags and the topic has been moved to the Cameras category, that might improve your topic’s visibility and get the attention of Cam v2 users. :crossed_fingers:
