Live view uploads .black. Video clips
Hi all,I've just installed my new Door View Cam. All seems to be working fine e.g notifications, system health, Wi-fi connectivity, except that Live View is selected it just says 'Activating' in the app for the whole 30 second clip, and 'black' video clips are uploaded to my Ring account.What could be wrong?

Thanks Caitlyn, I had a look at the links, but that didn't solve my problem.In the end - as my network is somewhat complex, with a UTM firewall that I believe needed SIP configuring - I opted to simply connect my Ring DVC to my alternative, more 'open', wireless router (a BT Smart Hub, which sits in front of my UTM). Whilst this provides a lower RSSI, the Live View feature now works as expected.
