Firmware Version:

Hi,

 

I´ve set up my C100 for continuous recording and motion detection.

So the camera records the hole day and I get a push notification when something moved. That works.

 

My problem is in the playback screen the hole day is marked in blue although I got notifications for motion.

I would expect that is looks like in the manual where the times with motion are marked orange so I can quickly find them.

 

Am I doing something wrong?

 

Expectation:

 

What I get:

Good day.

Sorry for the delay.

Do you mean there would be notification on the blue area timeline?

When you checked the notification, did someone/something move at the time?

Did it happen very frequently, or how many times have you noticed this issue?

Did you test on a second smartphone and log in with same TP-Link ID and would you get the same issue?

By the way, how long have you had the camera

 

Thank you very much.

Hi,

 

yes there were notifications within the time and in the playback there is motion, but in the playback screen the hole time is marked blue:

    

 

No, so far I only tried it on one device. I have the camera for 3 days now.

Good day.

Thank you very much for your time and patience.

After checking with the senior engineers, I learned that:

The blue part on the timeline is on continuous recording schedule; as long as the detection& alerts  on the cameras are enabled, you could receive the notifications but it would not be highlighted during the continuous recording;

 

Thank you very much.

Ok, Thanks for the information.

 

But I think this would be a nice feature nevertheless. That way you could quickly browse through to times with motion.

Do you think you could forward this as a feature request?

 

Thanks a lot.

Hi, Good day.

Yes, we would forward this feedback to the senior engineers since at the beginning I also thought that all the orange sections are the motion detection area and the blue parts are not;

 

Thanks very much for your kind feedback.

Later If there is any better ideas, please feel free to start a thread.

Thanks a lot.
