Abstract
Methods and systems are described for storing video content collected by a home automation system. According to at least one embodiment, an apparatus for accessing video content collected by a home automation system includes a processor, a memory in electronic communication with the processor, and instructions stored in the memory which are executable by a processor to receive video content associated with an event, determine a priority level of the video content based on at least one predetermined criteria, and store the video content for a period of time based on the priority level.

A method for home automation at a home automation system, comprising:
- receiving multimedia data associated with an occurrence related to a physical environment associated with the home automation system;
- determining a period of the occurrence or a location of the occurrence in the physical environment, or both;
- determining a priority of the multimedia data based at least in part on the period of the occurrence or the location of the occurrence in the physical environment, or both;
- and
- storing the multimedia data in a memory associated with the home automation system based at least in part on the priority of the multimedia information.
An apparatus for home automation at a home automation system, comprising, comprising:
- a processor;
- a memory in electronic communication with the processor;
- and
- instructions stored in the memory, the instructions being executable by the processor to:
- receive multimedia data associated with an occurrence related to a physical environment associated with the home automation system;
- determine a period of the occurrence or a location of the occurrence in the physical environment, or both;
- determine a priority of the multimedia data based at least in part on the period of the occurrence or the location of the occurrence in the physical environment, or both;
- and
- store the multimedia data in a memory associated with the home automation system based at least in part on the priority of the multimedia information.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing code for or home automation at a home automation system, the code comprising instructions executable by a processor to:
- receive multimedia data associated with an occurrence related to a physical environment associated with the home automation system;
- determine a period of the occurrence or a location of the occurrence in the physical environment, or both;
- determine a priority of the multimedia data based at least in part on the period of the occurrence or the location of the occurrence in the physical environment, or both;
- and
- store the multimedia data in a memory associated with the home automation system based at least in part on the priority of the multimedia information.
