Motion detection while offline
I was curious to see what happens if the camera detects motion when there's no active internet connection. What I had expected/hoped is that the camera would start recording to the SD card after detecting motion as usual, and later send a notification to the user/app when the internet connection is working again.
Unfortunately, this did not happen. There was no notification after reconnecting to the internet, refreshing notifications in the app was of no use. Even worse, there was no motion event shown on the timeline at the time when it should have been recorded.
I also had a look at the files on the SD card, but unfortunately, all mp4s have the same "last modified" date, and most of them are not even playable.
So I wonder why the camera seems to be incapable to detect/record motion when it is not connected to the internet. Is the motion detection performed on the camera itself or in the cloud? The latter would be creepy, imo.
