Marcus 4 seamless recording problem

[ics]

Vico Marcus 4 is losing 2 seconds of video after every 16 successfully recorded video clips.

It can be verified by letting the camera continuously record at least 18 video clips (90 minutes).

Between the 16th and the 17th video clip there will be a 2 second unrecorded gap and this happens after every 16th video clip that's recorded during a long continuous trip (between 16-17, 32-33, 48-49).

Here is video sample with last 10s from 16th clip and first 10s from clip 17 and the same for 32-33 and 48-49th clip (check the timestamp when clips are changing):

P.S. I have 2 Marcus 4 and i tested with different SD cards.

Hi ics,
I tested mine last night and it has the same missing 2-3 seconds when I play it with Registrator Viewer.
Though it does not blank out the screen, it just skips a few seconds on the counter.
I am using 4.8 beta Firmware.

Where did you get your hands on 4.8 beta?

Hi Kite,
As on another post, I had a problem with LDWS and FCW and when I contacted Vicovation they sent me 4.8 Beta to try.
It now works OK for me.

They have released new firmware, that should fix it up for you.

Hi dashcamph,

I am using 4.8 beta from Vicovation and it has this problem.

What new firmware are you talking about?

Regards

It seems that the situation has been corrected with 4.8G firmware update.
