Wyze Cam v3 Beta, 2.33 App RC test 7/14/2022

Sounds a lot like the issue I reported for the v2 and Pan v1 here:

Wyze Cam v2 & Pan firmware Beta Test 6/23/2022

I’m curious if anyone else has been experiencing time gaps and overall choppiness during event playback with this firmware. For example, a 15 second clip may start playing from the 3 sec time mark (not 0), play through to 5 sec, skip to 7 sec, play to 12 sec, and finally skip to 15 sec. It seems that the more motion there is the worse it gets, as if the cam is running out of steam while encoding the motion. Playback from both the cloud and SD card are affected. I don’t recall this happening befo…

Another observation related to my previous post regarding the event playback issue… I have been having unusual amounts of upload activity and internet bandwidth usage for the past week or so, and discovered that occasionally one or more of my Pan V1s running this firmware have been uploading continuously to the cloud. It appears that in each instance, the uploads were triggered by a motion event that exhibits the choppy playback. I would expect to see only brief upload activity during the event…

The worst part is the random, continuous uploads to the cloud, which eat into my ISP-imposed data cap. A single cam can easily upload 2-5GB of who-knows-what to the cloud depending on when I detect and stop it; more if it occurs during the night or if more than one acts up at the same time.
