8 - HOW TO USE CONTINUOUS RECORDING WITH A MICROSD CARD

[@poppopw5305]

3 words: WYZE CAM ROCKS! Installed one in the living room, purchased another for the porch. It is fantastic!!

[@FlightSim2703]

First when I started with these cameras, I was disappointed, because I was confused, well.. now I'm changing my mind, I'm so comfortable with these devices and love all abut these cameras, technology, and awesome kind supports, thanks so much . Best regards

[@tybdhnvynmnccvn]

Im using a 128gb micro sd card class 10. I followed you steps and formatted. 128gb! I love this thing!

[@wanmic1]

Hey, does it really works with 128 gb??? I thought max is 32gb...

[@tybdhnvynmnccvn]

@@wanmic1 yes it really does. At first it didnt but if you insert card and format through the settings it reads and writes just fine. I left it recording all night and the files are split up into like 2 or 3 minute clips. So i threw it into adobe premier to make one long edited video. Next ill try the time lapse feature

[@wanmic1]

I was looking for an outdoor camera to keep an eye on my dogs in the yard when I'm not home. kzbin.infoUgkxOXxsTZ3ptV_Pk0fFl8bNZvVqeoqBQFwe Tried a different one that was absolutely terrible, so I got these instead. They work perfectly! With 3 of these cameras I can see every corner of the yard, and they were very easy to set up. The best part is I only get the footage I want to see, not hours of videos of the bird feeder swaying in the breeze.

I must admit, your Tech Support team was awesome. They walked me thru a set up issue very quickly.

I wish I could say the same for my experience with the tech support I talked to... I have had my 3- WYZE CAM 2s for a year and one just stopped working all together! It doesnt recognize the power supply cord/plug no yellow light, no sound, NOTHING! Its very frustrating to hear everyone else loving theirs!

Do you connect them one by one? Without setting it up again?

[@micke9680]

It would be great if you could schedule your recordings, a reoccuring continous recording every day between for instance 00-06. This would make the storage last longer as well. Is this a feature you would consider adding?

Thanks for the very helpful video. It answers a number of post purchase questions I had. One it didn’t answer is: when continuous recording to the SD card, what is the expected battery life? (I’ll find out soon when my SD card gets here.) Thanks for the great information! Up until now, I was very confused as to where to put the SD card: the base station or the camera.

[@wyze]

It sounds like you have a Wyze Cam Outdoor v2! While it doesn't utilize Continuous Recording like other Wyze Cams, you can still record for extended periods of time using Scheduled Recording with a MicroSD card. This feature allows you to record for up to 10 consecutive hours. These recordings get saved to your album instead of playback. You can do this by tapping "More" on the live stream page and then Scheduled Recording. You can find out more about this here: support.wyze.com/hc/en-us/articles/7849731370651-Wyze-Cam-Outdoor-Features#h_01G9NH7ATHTARX25TRAVJ9C0AX

[@adri.khaz.6290]

The MaxDrive (Nas Drive) should come out soon for it to be worth it for the masses in the long run and cut out the need for microsd in case if someone steals or damage the camera(s) as some events last a lot longer than a few seconds. Hopefully the buyer gets to choose their storage (gb, tb, ssd, hhd) for the MaxDrive so it doesn't end up costing too much. There's real progress to be made. Curious to see if Wyze Cam shall dominate the market for its price and features.

[@Yod12]

Wyze Labs sent me three cameras because none of them recognize that an SD card is present - the original 32Gb card that came with the first camera. When I hopefully get this resolved, Dave said that it will record for a few days. A search here says "You can record about 90 minutes of 1080p (1,080 x 1,920) “Full HD” video on a 32GB SD Memory Card. If you reduce the resolution to 720p (720 x 1,280) “HD Ready”, you'll get closer to 200 minutes of recording time on a 32GB Card. So, "HD Ready" is SD? 200 minutes is only about three hours. Sequential 1 minute video clips...does that mean separate files...is there a lag time between these?

If the card won’t read in any other device, it’ll likely need to be replaced. In all other circumstances though, please let me know! I'd also recommend manually reformatting the card from a computer if possible, as this will both clear it, and make sure that it’s formatted properly for the Wyze Cam! How to properly format your MicroSD card for Windows: Pull the microSD card from the Wyze Cam, and plug it into your computer (if you don't have a port, you may need an adapter) Open your computer's file browser Right-click on the microSD card's listing in the navigation panel (it should appear near your computer's primary drive. For Windows, this is likely your C:/ drive). Select "Format..." from the right-click menu Ensure that the Format Type is set to FAT32 Press "Start" How to properly format your MicroSD card for Mac: Pull the microSD card from the Wyze Cam, and plug it into your Mac (if you don't have a port, you may need an adapter) On the Finder bar, use the Go menu to access Utilities Within Utilities, access Disk Utility In Disk Utility, select the microSD card from the left-hand menu, and navigate to the 'Erase' tab in the main panel (the right-hand fields) From the Format dropdown menu, choose “MS-DOS FAT” You can either leave the Title field blank or name it whatever you choose.

Hey I was thinking of buying these over nest cams. If I enable continuous recording does that mean the entire bar will be green? Would I be able to know where there's motion within the continuous recording?

[@wyze]

Hello, Abdulsalam! Thank you for your consideration! Yes, with continuous recording the entire bar would be green. We will be adding markers in for events in the future. In the meantime, you could use your cloud videos to show you where you should check in the timeline or use the record on event feature. That will only save videos in which motion or sound are detected but the videos are a minimum of 1 minute long. There's no cooldown period so you can record for as long as there is motion.

Where is the playback video? after this one ends I don't get the playback video, thanks

[@shernpin2]

Great video. I purchase the wyze cam v3. I use to see the videos on event log but i no longer see them . Instead i see them on view back.can you tell me why is that. I cannot share the video like i could before with my friends. When i go back to view footage. Everytime it keeps reconnecting to wifi. I do have an sd card in side my wyze cam v3. How can i fix that problem of sharing my event log and connection and sd card issues. I need to be able to share my footage via event lig. But theirs not event when actioins took place , because i can see it on my play back view and the wifi now can i not use the wifi and just record only using my sd card

I recently added a microSD card and I was under the assumption that it would record one minute clips but it is still only recording 12 second clips. I went to advanced settings and turned it to the alerts, not continuous on the local mode, am I doing something wrong?

[@wyze]

You are, but you're in good company! Your microSD card videos can be found in the Playback section of the app instead of with the 12-second clips. When viewing the live stream, press "View Playback" to be taken to the right section. If this doesn't do the trick, please let us know! :)

Can any other SD card , larger than 32g...be used the capture local recordings

[@Kenz1337]

My Wyze Cam v3 suddenly not let me playback from MicroSD how do I fix it? I tried so many things Format MicroSD Plug & Unplug the Power/MicroSD Delete devices Even in my settings I tried and tried nothing works, I don’t even share the device and still not letting me use it

[@rickloudermilk6351]

I was told , I think on the Wyze forum, that a high endurance micro sd card would "endure" the rewriting and reformatting many times. I bought some and installed them and that fixed the problem.

[@louiep432]

so everytime you wanna save or transfer the files, you would have to take out the sd card? (this is for the camera that is not connected to the internet)

[@wyze]

Correct: if your camera is offline, you would need to either remove the microSD card or restore the camera's internet connection to save or transfer locally stored files.

A question: When you choose 'continuous recording' and motion detection does it mean that it records everything uninterrupted onto the SD card and just 12" event triggered records onto the Cloud? Or it doesn't record anything on Cloud and records everything onto the SD card?

[@wyze]

Thanks for reaching out to us! If you have the SD card set to continuous recording, the camera will record everything to the SD card but if you also have the event recording turned on those will also be saved to the cloud as well and you can see those videos in the event section on your app. We've also included the link to our support site where you can find out more about the recording options for your camera but if you have any more questions or if any issues come up, please let us know. :) support.wyzecam.com/hc/en-us/articles/360022669931-Event-Recordings-Push-Notifications

Can it do continuous recording as well as motion detection videos at the same time?

[@ryansims7418]

Does the Wyze outdoor camera not have continuous recording?

[@punteroism]

Can the wyze camera be turned on and off while it is in offline/no wifi mode?
