I have four Indoor 2k camera and and 1 Indoor 2k Pan and Tilt camera as well as a 2c Pro and HB2.
These have all be working great for the last 12 months, however int he last few weeks I have noticed that none of my Indoor Cameras are recording any video. and when I click on playback it just says “There is no video!”
I have removed and re-added all of them and they work for a day or so and then stop recording video or sending notifications. I have set them up using a mobile, using my home wifi, using a wifi extender and always the same, after about a day, they stop notifications and recording, but live view still works.
I have put a couple in home kit but that doesn’t seem to make any difference as the ones not in home kit are still having the same issues.
What I have seen in the past, is that if you swap the sd card from one cam to another, recording stops and you can’t view videos.
The trick here is to format the sd card. In my case, the recording started again and I could view videos again.
I have used my 2 indoor pan&tilt cams for months without a problem.
All of a sudden they stop recording. Not all the time, working one day, but stop recording the next.
I have motion detection enabled and am sure that they should have been working. The cams are directed on a litter box, because my cat has bladder problems. He was on the litter box, but no recording was made.
I think it may have to due with a wifi glitch. If wifi is (shortly) unavailable, the cams don’t record anymore. If you reset them, they work. Until the next time wifi is shortly unavailable. Then they stop recording again.
I only noticed this because I have a Devolo Magic 2 WiFi next device in the same room. Sometimes it blinks red for 5 seconds or so. If this happens, the cam’s are not recording anymore, not even if wifi is up again.
This is really annoying, wifi is never 100% and the cam’s don’t really need cause the recordings are stored on a SD card.
Why is this happening and when it will it be fixed?
