摘要： The present embodiments solve the problem of low-quality stored footage from video stream by storing copies of data packets at a local storage device of the A/V recording and communication device. The locally stored data is subsequently (e.g., after the live stream has terminated) uploaded to a remote storage device. If any data packets are lost during the upload process, those lost data packets can be re-sent from the local storage device to the remote storage device so that the complete recording can be stored at the remote storage device. The subsequent upload process may, in some embodiments, comprise a reliable data transfer protocol.

摘要： Streaming and storing video for audio/video (A/V) recording and communication devices in accordance with various embodiments of the present disclosure are provided. In one embodiment, a method for an A/V recording and communication device comprises: recording video image data; executing a write operation to write the video image data at a write rate; executing a read operation to read the video image data at a first read rate that is greater than the write rate; continuing to read the video image data at the first read rate until the read operation catches up to the write operation; reading the video image data at a second read rate equal to the write rate; and transmitting streaming video to a client device, wherein a beginning portion of the streaming video is streamed at a first stream rate and thereafter streaming at a second stream rate less than the first stream rate.

摘要： Streaming and storing content captured by audio/video (A/V) recording and communication devices in accordance with various embodiments of the present disclosure are provided. In one embodiment, a method for transmitting and storing video images captured by an A/V recording and communication device including a camera and memory is provided, the method comprising: capturing video images of a field of view of the camera; detecting a person at the A/V recording and communication device; in response to detecting the person, storing a high-quality version of the video images at the memory of the A/V recording and communication device; determining an available network bit rate for video streaming; if the available network bit rate is above a threshold, then transmitting a high-quality video stream to a client device; and if the available network bit rate is below the threshold, then transmitting a low-quality video stream to the client device.
