Cameras not showing motion videos

A few days ago my 360 Camera and two outdoor cameras stopped being able to playback live video. They show they record motion in the app then when I click on it, it just shows a still shot, no ability to play the video. I've reset the cams, checked all the settings ejected and reinsert the SD cards. I'm at my wits end trying to figure why three failed at the same.

    We appreciate you reaching us about the event recordings from your camera. We'd like to know more about this.

    Do you have a subscription for your camera? Since the camera will only take pictures if there is no camera subscription.
