Tapo C110 using too much memory
for information
I've been having problems with the memory card storage on my Tapo C110 camera for some time, I've been using a sandisk micro sdxc ultra 128gb card, after reformatting and only one person detection , the memory card was full and unable store any more detection clips
I used the HS2test app to check the sd card which was fine,
the chat support was a hopeless, kept telling me to lower the resolution which didn't work , I should have been able to store hours of videos at 2K resolution on a 128gb card
when I checked the card on my PC, there were multiple mp4 files, along with some other file types, taking up 119gb of the memory, which was puzzling, after a few reformats it was still the same,.
I then decided to reformat one final time, this time I turned off all the detection modes so no videos were stored, then again I checked the card on the PC , again there were multiple mp4 files and 119 gb of memory used up, for some reason every time the card was formatted it was adding corrupt mp4 files, why, I've no idea, so I deleted all the mp4 files, but not the other files file types, I inserted the card into the camera , I turned on the AI detection and tested it again on the 2K setting , this time it was fine, using a fraction of the memory for each person detection
