Issues with notifications, and recording.
This may be a non-starter, but if so maybe TPlink could consider updating the firmware\app to amend the below issues assuming this isn't user error on my behalf.
My problem lies with movement notifications being so spammy on my 3x Tapo C220's. I want notifications ON so if someone passes through a room it'll ding my phone, but is there a way to set a "cooldown" or similar for the notification events? Because so far for me when notifications are turned on literally any and all movement in the room continually spams notifications every second someone is moving. This results in DINGDINGDINGDINGDINGDINGDING on my phone for something as simple as me walking around my living room lol. I wish it would have a time-delay between notifications, like setting a 30sec or 10min delay before sending another one. Or that once it detects movement it sends a notification, and then doesn't send another one until it detects 2mins of "no movement" then detects "fresh movement". The notification option becomes useless if all it does is spamspamspam my phone when I'm walking around a room. Unless I'm doing something wrong? Yes I can set detection areas, and detection schedules, but doesn't change that it spams me as it is designed right now.
Second question is around movement detection recording. Is there a way to set how long it records after detecting movement? Right now it seems to record for 5 or 10sec after detecting movement, sometimes when continual movement is detected it records for 2 minutes, maybe 3min, but no more than that, even when movement is still occurring it stops recording and I can't figure out why. Is there a way to set a minimum time to record after a detection event like 10mins? Any reason why even though movement is still happening it will stop recording randomly even though it's set to record when movement is detected? My SD cards are the right speed\class and are over 90% free space so it's not running out of space or anything like that (it's set to loop anyways). Thoughts? Thanks all!
I'll try and attach a screenshot but I just turned on the people setting as discussed and while moving around the room i still get spammed with notifications. This was about 1-2min apart on average for a total of 7 notifications to my phone while folding laundry.
