OHA
Video processing, please wait
Everytime our doorbells rang, the message 'Video processing, please wait' came up - and for so long that the visitors had given up before I could response.It then came to my mind that the problem had been there since the new feature History Timeline was implemented. After deselecting this, the video now answers almost immediately when answering the doorbell.Is that a known problem?

I can never catch any live video. Notification slow, and recording takes several minutes to process. It is useless technically and I’d better just go answer the door myself coming down from second floor would be faster than ring

This is not a “WIFI” problem. This is a “RING” problem. I have amazing wi fi connectivity and brand new devices with current updates and have the same problem. I will be looking for new cameras all around and doorbell as well if RING doesn’t fix this soon. They will be going out of business soon if their response to all these complaints is to blame it on everyone’s WiFi. Pathetic

I have the same issue with the "video processing" - especially if I access the application from a different network than the Ring. I will try turning off the timeline history but that seems like a very poor solution. I use that view often (except when all the videos are processing...)

Add me as yet another customer with this issue. I've got a Ring Door View Cam that has worked fine for nearly 2 years until this week.I had to remove the doorbell as my wife wanted to paint the front door and since I've put the doorbell back on I'm now not able to connect to live video or even see any video at all. Whenever someone presses the bell it takes about 30 seconds for the notifications to appear on our phones or through our Alexa's. When I installed the door bell again I noticed that it updated the firmware.I've factory reset the device, I've uninstalled/installed the app, I've installed the Rapid Ring app, I've tried connecting through the website, I've changed the wifi the doorbell is connected, I've disabled the event history timeline. Nothing works.My RSSI is currently -36, the router (Netgear Nighthawk R8000p) is literally 4 feet from the doorbell with a plasterboard wall in between, I can't move the thing any closer. As it currently stands the thing is utterly useless as the 30 second delay between someone pressing the bell and getting an announcement through the Alexa's means we usually miss who was at the door.edit:I've just looked at my activity on ring.com and whenever I try to view an event I get an error "The video is not available. A Ring plan or trial was no active when this event took place" yet I have the Basic plan which runs until November 2021.

After your Ring Doorbell or Camera is done recording an event, the video will take a moment to process before it can be viewed on the Event History tab or the Event History Timeline. You should not receive this message when activating the Live View. If you're experiencing issues with the Live View not loading, we recommend reviewing the troubleshooting steps in [this Community post](https://community.ring.com/t/ring-live-view-not-working-or-connecting-ring-troubleshooting-tips/249). The troubleshooting steps in that post will help you narrow down the cause of Live View issues. It's also always recommended to have the latest version of the Ring app and your phone's software installed. If you have a VPN on your phone, ensure it is turned off, as the Ring app isn't compatible with the use of a VPN. For more in-depth troubleshooting assistance, please give our support team a call at one of the numbers available [here](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/213608406).
