Video files in the ipcam directory

I read somewhere that video files are stored in the ipcam directory on the SD card, regardless of whether or not you are doing time-lapse recording.

So I took a look, and found a bunch of files there, but they are all old ones, Some are from March 2024, and some are fron August through October. I cleared them out, but there are no videos in there now.

Is this because of an update?
Perhaps because I am running in LAN Only mode?
If it’s LAN Only mode, I’d REALLY like it to change that behaviour.

Be sure you have turned on “Auto-record Monitoring” in the camera settings.

Records in both LAN and cloud modes.

I don’t see that anywhere. Is it in the Calibration tab?

Device tab, upper right of the video window.

The Camera Setting “gear” icon only works if your printer is connected.

After another killed SD-Card realized now that to disable the timelapse is not enough. I found the ipcam fodler and saw that for each print there exists a video.
Which I do not need. I disabled it now.
