Weirdly, it hasn't been happening lately. The setup I have in the car, is the camera is plugged in to a BlackVue Battery Pack. That is then plugged in to a 10+ amp Battery Guard made by Kemo. Before this was installed correctly, it would shut itself off as the Power Magic Pro that the battery...

I have a B-112 in my car as well, and I am sure it will serve it's purpose eventually, I bought it as I want as much runtime for the cameras as possible, I already had a Power Magic Pro so I thought it would be a good idea to power the Battery Pack off of that, the problem I have is that it...

Hey, Did you get to the bottom of this at all? Mine is doing the same thing now, I’ve gone through two or three cards and exactly the same thing is happening as yours. Ian

Hi Rocky, I am getting the same thing. I'm guessing it's a Russian voice you can here repeating itself? By the way she's talking it sounds like it's asking to check the ad card. Did you ever find out what was causing it?

Hi Simon, Apologies for the delay in coming back to you, I downloaded the custom firmware from car-dvr.info, here is a link:- http://car-dvr.info/forum/index.php?topic=13.0 One piece of advice, I would make a backup of the config\version.bin file on your existing stock, you will need to make...

Just an update - It seems like it's the latest firmware. I spent the weekend trying to load the custom firmware, and it loaded correctly and now connecting through FTP is now working great. So I guess my question here is, was FTP disabled in the frimware update? Or did I just use the wrong...

Hi Everyone, It's been a while since I posted on here and to be honest I haven't needed to as I haven't really had any problems with my camera until now. Recently I had a problem with the time and date of the camera not correcting itself, after a lot of research I found the problem was...

Hi everyone, Thanks for all the comments, I have found the resolution and it was indeed a corrupt SD card. The symptoms were a little strange though. The first thing I noticed was that the normal recording light (orange I think) was blinking slower than normal, then eventually it would put...

Oh ok, I'm going to keep an eye out for one then, class 10 are cards I have always had recently so I will try one of them when I get one and see what happens to it then. On the plus side, I have used a class 10 in the DR500 in the front of the car and that has not been exhibiting any problems of...

Ok, so I have now formatted the card, however I have one last question! While I formatted it I noticed a number 4 in a circle on it, I am guessing that this means it is a class 4 card? Should it be a class 10 card that I install in the camera?

Thanks for the tips, I'll get cracking ok that tomorrow and see what happens. Thanks for the advice guys

Hi Hillbilly, When I'm driving I can see the camera in the mirror, and after I pulled away this morning I could see the gps light was on, but not the recording light. So when I got to work I checked the recordings and surely enough the last recording was from when I pulled away at the...

Hi everyone, I've noticed something a bit strange with the DR300 in the back of my car, I've been running it a few weeks now and for some reason when the card gets full, it chooses not to record over the older recordings which is something I thought that the camera was capable of doing? Does...

Hi Hillbilly, Thanks for the reply's, I used a bullet connector to place the wires together, that way it can easily be removed if I need it to. With regards to your post about the addafuses, I got the trusted multimeter tool on to it and checked the voltage, it was indeed coming in from the...

Hey Hillbilly, Thanks for the suggestion, for some unknown reason it decided to start behaving itself, immediately afterwards I used the Filezilla FTP program and read the card fine! Thanks for all your help, as always, you know your stuff! Thanks Ian

Now that is strange, I've just been able to connect to it...... I have no idea what is different other than I wasn't able to earlier!!

Hmm, that is strange, for some reason my Dell comes up stating that it was unable to connect. I have no idea why as it should detect it as a legitimate device to connect to. I'll have to experiment and see what is going on. I wonder if there is a specific channel or something that I need to...

Yes, which I thought would be the default as that's the one I use from the phone, but that doesn't work

Lol, That may well be the case, but you're still great for helping me out... You'll be even better in my books if you can help me with my WiFi issue!! ;-)

Hi Hillbilly, Your knowledge on this is awesome! I read the thread that you sent and think I understand a lot more now, so it is potentially dangerous to have them the wrong way round, I will re-check the way they are loaded and get them moved around if needed, so far I haven't blown any...
