Camera video not recording entire events

Since around the first week in July 2025 my cameras do not record the entire event. When a person, vehicle,  etc. triggers an event, the still snapshot of the person or vehicle is captured in the event list. But, when I click on the video and play it, the video seems to start a couple of seconds after when the snapshot had happened. This being the case, the video does not show the important part of the event. I feel like Roku must have done an update to their system sometime around when this problem started happening. I have cameras connected at different locations and it happens to all cameras. Each of these locations has a different internet provider, so it is not an internet provider problem or any problem or change on my end. I have not changed any settings and this problem started occurring on all cameras in all locations at the same time. Also, when I view my events, the "motion rectangle" never shows up anymore in the videos to highlight the area that triggered the video. I have a paid subscription.

    It looks like you both have an issue with the recording of events on your Smart Home cameras. 

    Make sure that the app is up to date. Then try to sign out and sign in to your Roku account in the Smart Home app. Also, try to unplug the power cord of the Camera for at least 30 seconds and plug it back in. Once done, try to check the events if it is now recording. 

    Hope this helps!

    I'm having this issue with my camera now.  Were you able to get this resolved.  I can't get any customers service. I seem to be missing a lot of events.

      I am still having this problem. I feel like they may have done an update on their end last night, so maybe that will help?? Or maybe not... It would be nice if they gave us advance notice of when they are updating things instead of us just being surprised when things work differently.
