Green box = Event Recording

[Sptrr99]

If I see a green box, does that mean it starts an event recording? If I set the motion detection slider to 1, does that mean the green box should show up less? I didnt know if they were tied to each other or not.

That’s just motion tagging. You can detect montion without that. The slider is the sensitivity at which the pixel differential detects motion. The less sensitive, the more pixel differentiation has to take place.

I’m trying to adjust the sensitivity and was wondering if I see green box, does that mean I need to keep turning it down or down the sensitivity slider not cooralate with the green box.

That question I am not sure of. @Loki may know more about that.

Sorry, I don’t know either if the green box display is affected by the motion sensitivity slider.

Ya know, that seems like one of the things that should be in the manual somewhere.

There are a couple #roadmap s that would help @Sptrr99 if they are interested in voting on them.

Green box for motion tagging, Red box for notifications

Motion tagging and event recording to the SD card are not on the same sensitivity as for notifications. I find this to be not intuitive and causing a lot of WTH responses. There seems to be a missing link where sensitivity actually starts triggering a notification. For example, if motion tagging (green box) were to identify every motion recognizable and a red box identified motions that trigger notification, users would be able to fine tune the sensitivity and could visually see what should trig…

Notification zone over top of motion detection zone

It would be nice to set a notification zone over top of a detection zone. For example, this would allow me to detect (record) someone walking down my sidewalk, but only get notifications if they walk near my front door. I still want to record cars that may have stopped in front of my house, but only get notifications if they pulled into my driveway.
