G6 PTZ - Huge letdown

I had a Tapo C520WS out back that tracked animals and people. It tracked better than the G5 PTZ that replaced it. I got rid it for several reasons. Their software limits you to one stream at a time. So when I had it recording to Surveillance Station, it wouldn't show in the Tapo app. I could add it

The Tapo camera/cloud/app performance has been dismal lately

I am experiencing the same. Have the cams only since October but they worked better at the beginning. The C500 is crap anyways and I will replace it in spring.

C325wb vs c560ws real shots

Wow 😮 I am so surprised. I was considering to get a C560WS for our farm to replace one of our C520WS but seeing this I am actually thinking of swapping to another brand.

FYI: C246D cannot change FPS

Can't show you a video because it gives a lot of personal info but I uploaded screenshots I just took to imgur here. It's currently 14:25 here and that will reflect on the screenshots. But for the C210,C110, and C520WS you need to go into settings and change the power line frequency from Auto to 60h

C530WS image clarity example

Just the software itself. I have two C520WS cams and when I try to access one of them with the Tapo software, I get a message that says something like, "It appears you've reached your limit for viewing this video." WTF does that mean? The latest firmware update seems to have messed something up beca
