Suddenly begins recording non-stop

by peteburford » Tue Dec 15, 2015 12:02 am

Everything works fine for a few days, it is set to record when a person is in the camera view.
Then for no apparent reason it begins recording 24 hours non-stop even though there is nothing in the view. This began around 1am. It totally screwed everything up, the remote access wouldn't work and the only way out was to shut down and restart, delete all the clips and go again.

I'm running an ip camera on Apple Mac (10.10.5).

It is very unstable on a mac.
every day there is some problem with it.
Usually it "loses" the camera config and i have to reenter it...
When i log in to it remotely using the wan ip address, i can see the camera ,but it says "video not available" even though it says there are 27 clips.

This is for security purposes so it needs to be reliable.
Every day this app has some kind of problem..It's the only thing I have running on the mac.
I'm very disappointed with this and I'm feeling it was a wasted purchase.
I'm thinking now of biting the bullet and buying a standalone NVR.
