Copy base-station recordings to a Raspberry Pi
ArloCloud-RPi makes a Raspberry Pi appear as a USB disk to an Arlo base station and copies its motion recordings into a network-accessible folder. It reads the local recording files, without using Arlo cloud recordings. It adds no live view or motion-event API.
A real USB-capable Arlo base station remains connected, and Arlo's app configures local recording. No Arlo Secure is needed, but this is a mirror that propagates deletions rather than a permanent archive. The code accesses a disk image while the base can write to it, which presents a filesystem-integrity concern that needs review.
