Is there any way to do slow motion or frame-by-frame playback on SD card or event recordings using the Wyze app?

I ask because I have a recording of a vehicle doing perhaps 60mph in a 25mph zone and it is just about impossible for me to stop the playback using the app’s controls to catch a detailed view of the vehicle. Hopefully I’m missing something.

I don’t think this is possible within the Wyze app, but I see that I can right-click an event video when using the Web Portal in Firefox (unsupported) and select **Speed ➜ 0.5×** from the pop-up menu. I don’t know if that would be helpful to you or not.

I can see that you’ve already voted for [Enhancements for cloud events playback (e.g., slow motion, frame-by-frame, etc.)](https://forums.wyze.com/t/enhancements-for-cloud-events-playback-e-g-slow-motion-frame-by-frame-etc/14859) in the Wishlist, and you might also be interested in supporting this one:

Watching in real time can be a major pain point especially if you’re looking for something specific in continuous footage. This will make it easier to find footage that we care about (especially if we don’t have markers for events yet). Best, WyzeGwendolyn

For your current situation, your best bet for getting images may be pulling the microSD card to view videos on a PC, and I say that knowing that a given Cam’s location may or may not make microSD card retrieval practical. I’ve also seen suggestions that using the app’s **&nbsp;Take Photo** control during microSD playback can result in clear still images, like when trying to capture license plate information.

Are you able to post the video here? TomG a user on this forum slowed down this bird video my Wyze v3 captured a couple of years ago
