You’re welcome. I hope you get a fix, too. While I haven’t personally had a problem with using the Cam OG as a chime for the Video Doorbell v2 (and I’m an Android user), I’ve had issues with a Cam Pan v3, and I’m trying to track some problems with this feature, because I think it’s a cool idea, and I’d really like to see it work.
Thanks. And lol. My pan cam works flawlessly but not the OG. Unfortunately the pan cam is in my garage so doesn’t help in my main living areas.
Me too! No clue what changed
Probably something on their backend
Thank you for still looking into this as it’s been ongoing for me.
That resets the Cam Pan baseline orientation/position to temporarily fix pan/tilt drift. The reset I’m talking about is Reset Services, a backend/server-side reset.
I’m aware of what the Rule does. It invokes two different Actions, one of which is to Restart the camera, which is why I mentioned it, because that was part of the process you described. I understand that the services Reset is a different function that must be triggered manually.
In any case, it had no apparent effect, because I’m still getting the “Unable to View Playback” message (prompting me to insert a microSD card) when I tap Playback from the Events screen.
Perhaps your SD card needs a low-level format.
I can play events and timeline footage (I’m doing Continuous recording to microSD) from that camera’s main (live stream) screen SD Card, so I don’t think it’s a card issue. I think it’s one of the longstanding microSD card Events issues that’s been described numerous times on the Forum. I’m not sure what a low-level format would be expected to fix in this situation.
I appreciate the input, though. I also wonder if this is one of those things that takes a time for Wyze to roll out, and only chunks of users get some kind of update at a time. That seems at least plausible, given some of their previous practices.
Probably to those who complained enough like me.
If you don’t have critical footage that must live on the card, give it a shot or at least do a quick format via the app to rebuild the file allocation table and then powercycle your cam.
Might do. This’n’s lingered out there long enough that even an immediate fix isn’t going to make a huge difference for me with that single camera, and I still have some Cam v4s I need to finish setting up and installing, so that’s more of a priority for me today.
Maybe that’s part of my problem: I’ve been complaining about the wrong things. Still, apparently @Seapup gave up at least some of the complaining…
…and still got the fix. Maybe there’s cause for hope!
How about a fix for the earlier wyze plugs that will not reconnect after an internet outage? I bought 24 of them from home depot last year and they have to be physically unplugged to get them to reconnect after an internet outage.
I just swapped in a new card and had the same experience (“Unable to View Playback” from the Events screen but still able to select SD Card from the live view, find the event, and play it back from that context). It’s not the card.
Thank you for reporting back.
Of course! This is how we learn.
