Event recording

  • What is it? Each time your smart home camera detects motion or sound, it captures a video clip and saves it as an event recording. You can adjust motion and sound settings to determine when an event recording is captured.
  • Supported models: You can capture event recordings with all doorbell and camera models if you have a Roku Smart Home subscription.
  • Storage: When you purchase a Roku Smart Home Subscription, an event recording is stored in the cloud for 14 days, but you can also choose to record it simultaneously to a micro SD card in case the internet connection is lost. Without a subscription, an event recording can only be backed up on a micro SD card.
  • How to watch: An event recording stored in the cloud can be accessed from the Roku Smart Home app. To view an event recording backed up on a micro SD card, you must remove the card and connect it to your computer.
