Hi Newshound, interesting. A short while back I had created another ticket Recording starts on movement that should be blocked by Detection Zone and worked mostly with @carverofchoice and with tweaking of the detection zone (enlarging) and sensitivity (lowering) I had great success with stifling recordings that were started inside a blocked off area. I encourage you to take a look at my testing and results from that ticket.
I guess what I’m saying, is that I do understand what you’re saying above, but some of that doesn’t quite match up with my testing and results. So I’m not quite sure what to make of that.
I also had looked at the Green Box / Red Box WishList ticket but didn’t feel like it completely paralleled my issue of some recordings with many boxes and other recordings with none. I do understand that some of what you stated would definitely be the cause of not seeing any boxes at all in some of the recordings.
It is interesting that the Green Box usually does fall in the timing so that about 75% of the time I can see the green box on the event thumbnail. I’m guessing that if the green box is on the thumbnail, it may be indicative as to what caused of the event to begin.
As always, it’s fun and interesting to tweak the settings on these little cameras and learn more and more about them. I hope that sometime down the line they’ll figure out why some of the V3’s have bricked. I have 1 of my 4 V3’s that is a brick and doesn’t seem to be any resolution on the horizon. It is actually keeping me from buying more of them until that problem is addressed.
