Monday
Model: Tapo H500  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.2.18 Build 20260423 rel 12749

H500 and generic HDI monitor been working perfectly for several months. The HDMI monitor is turned off at night (on/Off switch) and On in the morning.

 

This has worked perfectly for months.

 

4 cameras displayed.

 

New behaviour: (lExact start time not known as we were away) - Turning on the HDMI briefly shows the 4 live cameras but then "Live stream paused" appears on all.

 

Resolution:  Leaving the HDMI monitor on - Turn the H500 Off - wait 30 seconds - Turn the H500 on. May require this twice. 

 

Occaisional Reboot will result in 4 black camera displays with "Live stream paused"

 

 

Actions carried out - SSD was full.  Re formatted - no difference.

 

In APP disabled Mirror function, re enabled with different Mirror, return to original mirror - works irregularly.

Try to reconnect the HDMI cable. Then restart the screen mirror feature and re-add the camera to the dashboard view.

 

How many cameras are connected to your Tapo H500? What are they? And which ones are doing the screen mirroring?

Very often the simple things. Removed and reconnected the HDMI cable and all is well. Thanks
