Blake,

I do not see that specific error message, but my Recordings are being cut short after I upgraded to 0.9.1-800f33e. I have also updated to the v2.1.0 of the integration.

Example:

This recording is the perfect example. Event lasts 30 seconds, snapshot is taken 10 seconds in. That’s perfect and expected behavior. Recording lasts 2 seconds and it’s the last part of the video where the delivery guy has already left

I got this exact type of error once I tried to add sound by changing the global ffmpeg parameters to remove the “-an”

ffmpeg:
   output_args:
     record: -f segment -segment_time 10 -segment_format mp4 -reset_timestamps 1 -strftime 1 -c copy

Once I moved these lines to the camera section, I got sound in my recordings and the “playback aborted due to corruption” error disappeared.
