Roku Outdoor Camera SE motion issue

I have an outdoor camera aimed at my back yard it works for motion sensing but in some instances it is triggered but there is nothing moving in the video. I believe that the motion trigger is activated but the recording takes a while to start so something moving quickly triggers the camera but is out of the camera range when the recording starts. I also have an Arlo video doorbell when I view its video for motion the actual video starts before the moving object or person is visible. I believe the Arlo camera is recording all of the time on a cycle and when a motion is detected it backs up a few seconds to capture the entire motion event. Can Roku do something so I'm not missing events in my backyard?
