What
eufy battery and solar cameras in "Motion only" mode no longer keep the stream open around the clock. The recorder starts when eufy reports motion (motion, person, vehicle, pet, doorbell), keeps running until 20 s without a new event (3 min cap per clip) and stops again. The clip is kept and uploaded to the configured storage targets like any other motion recording.
Before this change, "Motion only" pulled the stream permanently and only threw away segments without motion, which keeps a battery camera awake all day.
