Too many motion recordings

Question

I recently converted my battery powered Ring camera to a wired Ring camera (Stick-up Gen 3). Anyway, now my camera seems to detect movement constantly. I don’t get notifications, , but it will detect movement and record every 1-7 minutes all day and night long. The product is that if it’s currently recording detected motion and a person enters the detected mode, I won’t get a notification because it’s already recording. I never had this problem when it was battery operated only when I switched over to wired. I have it set at 'person detection' only and it still records all the time. I have the Ring Plus Plan so I am not as worried about the number of recordings as I am the lack of detection of people and therefore notifications while recording. Camera is in exact same location as when it had battery just wired. I even modified the detection zone and 'blacked out' areas I thought may bale setting it off, such as shadows, trees blowing in wind and garden flags.![image|690x382](upload://yUzV5qskIHXmfjf5cNU5JxUTJvQ.jpeg)

Hi. Did you try decreasing the Motion Sensitivity slider?

When you have it set up to detect 'people only' it automatically sets the Motion Sensitivity slider to the second from the lowest setting and prevents you from adjusting, which is weird because it did not do that when it was on battery only since I hard wired. I even tried turning off the People Only mode so I could adjust Motion Sensitivity to its lowest possible setting, the problem then is it still detects motion and records just as frequently, but I do not get any notifications.
