Thanks Mtz, its useful info. I appreciate your help. I used 'Handbrake' to re-encode to MP4 & then editing was no problem. There was a bit of quality loss, but not much. Handbrake has a batch process option, & each 270MB (5min) clip takes 2 mins to re-encode on my computer. Thats fine really, I...

¥16,000 ($170 USD) but that 'feels', more like about $130-$140 to me, the exchange rate to $ makes it seem higher. Its good enough & I cant expect too much for that price, I am probably just unfairly comparing to my DSLR. The 5 min clips it records are 270MB each, so its obvious there is...

Hi Guys, thanks for the suggestions & input. I tried out the cam today & will post a couple video clips below. Observations: • The wipers in the car do go right to the top of the window, so the mounting position where I have it at the very top is OK. • For now, the position seems ok too. It...

Good points! I hadn't considered the wiper issue. Yes, I might have to move it down a bit... to the same level at the rear view mirror. I thought I was being clever hiding it up there - ha ha! I left some gap from the centre because that right side of the cam is where you remove the card & there...

Thanks for unlocking that PDF! I didn't know you could do that, but I appreciate your help. I have installed the cam, it was a 5 min job. But I have not tested it yet (its my wife's car & I dont have a JP driving licence), I will of course post some videos etc when I get chance to give it a...

I just received the Yupiteru DRY-FH31 1080p Japanese DashCam & will be installing it this evening. I will report back with some details after trying it out. I dont see this model or indeed any of the Yupiteru cams mentioned on this site at all, so it may be interesting to some of you...
