Give us the motion video instead of a 5 minute clip in the app!

[user_665687082676291_665687082676291]

Why do we need to spend 5 minutes every time to find a 5 second motion detection video on the App from the microSD card recording?

A motion duration is often times less than 5 seconds. Instead of giving us that 5 second video in the Reolink app, why do you give us a 5 minute video to manually search ourselves?

It's 2023... who has the patience to watch through 5 minutes of still video to find the motion you need to check? Please fix this!!!!!!!

I believe this is when you have continuous recording enabled.

When in the app and viewing events such as motion, person, or visitor, there should be a way to tap on each event and be taken to the beginning of that event within the 5-minute recording.

@jwildman16_603295911534845 Yes, this happens for motion detections during continuous recording. Sometime you have to watch this 5 minute clip 2 or 3 times to make sure you didn't miss the action. VERY ANNOYING!!!!

Totally support this idea! Please fix it, Reolink.

Reolink. This needs fixing.

I would have thought that continuous is pretty clear. Tell the camera to record 5 minute videos, one after the other, all the time.
Tell the camera to record "motion" and what happens is a series of "motion recordings". May be 10 seconds, two minutes, whatever.

One or the other. User's choice.

If the user clicks on a 5 minute continuous recording, I would think the user wants to see 5 minutes. Why would the camera think, "oh, this time he wants to see something moving. Maybe next time he'll want to see all 5 minutes. I'm a camera. Cameras are great a reading minds."
