Video doorbell V2 only does 15 FPS

My video doorbell V2 only records 15 FPS (frames per second); daytime and nighttime. Wyze claims 20 FPS during daytime and 15 FPS nighttime.

See the attached video file info I captured through live view. Recorded event video clip I downloaded also 15 FPS.

This makes me wonder about the microSD recordings, but it’s cold and late, and my doorbell is in a cover secured by Torx screws that I really don’t want to deal with right now. :cold_face:

Video files recorded on microSD card are also 15 frames/second.

Curious if you’re hardwired or battery? I wonder if it changes based on how it is getting power. Or maybe there is a setting somewhere that you can reduce power saving features?

Video Doorbell v2 doesn’t have a battery. It does have a capacitor that can keep it powered for a short time during AC power loss, but it relies on AC for full-time use.

So much for that theory. Though I wonder if it is getting just enough power if that could affect it, but seems unlikely it is that smart.
