OK, I’m also having this issue, on all my cams V2 and V3 not consistent but has been happening a lot lately and seems to be getting worse as time goes by. I haven’t had time to investigate much but i see on here it is more than just I having this issue. I will try and capture a video of what I"m seeing. and also try and get a few logs. Android app and all on latest version of everything.

Motion capture events skipping 3 to 5 seconds on V3 cameras.

Recording starts and when object moves past the camera it jumps past the event up to 5 seconds. In general I find all playback on the V3 to be poor. Jumpy an unstable.

I was having the same issue on 2/3 v3’s since the last FW update. Yesterday I unplugged the 2 two that I was having issues with for 2 minutes and plugged them back in. For me, this has fixed the issue.

The one that had been working properly, regularly gets unplugged and plugged back in.

@shoehn I’ve noticed this in the past when I restarted a camera, but the problem comes back. I’m not sure how long it takes for the problem to reoccur.

@JCam I was wondering if I had seen this same thing in the past as well. I’ll keep an eye on it and report back if I notice the “skip” reappear.

This is absolutely ridiculous - months have passed and this issue has not been fixed. What’s the point in a security camera that skips recording important events?

If your still experiencing this please get a log from the app and the camera and put the log numbers here. Also, make sure your app and firmware are up to date

@JodyPM just out of curiosity. If you power cycle your cameras for an extended period, unplug for a minute plus, have you found that the skipping has gone away (for a while anyways) ? Or has this not changed their behavior?

I restarted my cameras about 2 days ago. Immediately after the restart the freezing/skipping was gone. About 24 hours after that, it seemed to have returned, but just for a tiny fraction of a second, hardly noticeable, 48 hours after the restart, the freezing is getting a little longer, perhaps 1/4 of a second. I expect that over the next couple of days it will progressively get worse.

JCam, did you restart by unplugging the power cord or restart within the App?
