    What is the purpose of the side button on the M10 waterproof case?

    Removing the button AND drilling the plastic boss out to full size made a massive improvement in sound quality. Sticking with the subjective scale, it sounds now more like 80-90% quality. I haven't done any testing with no case, but I don't think it would be much better than it is now. It's not...

    What is the purpose of the side button on the M10 waterproof case?

    First test with the button removed showed a marginal improvement in sound quality. Whereas the camera in the full case was about 20% quality, removing the button brought it up to a subjective 30 or 40%. I might try drilling it out so the hole is the same size as the button boss, because right...

    What is the purpose of the side button on the M10 waterproof case?

    I've been messing around with my new SJCAM M10 for a few weeks, and there's something that has been confusing me... Just what is the purpose of the menu button on the side of the waterproof case? Sure, it allows you to open the menu when you've got the camera in the case. BUT if you actually...

    Recording does not automatically start

    I fixed this problem today. For auto-start recording and loop recording to work, video length cannot be set to "off". It must be set to one of the other finite time spans.

    Record time: 2/5/10min or OFF? (DVR-207)

    Don't use OFF. It will actually record segments about 15 min in length, BUT it disables automatic recording and loop recording.

    DVR 207 GS review

    Success! I did a reset of the settings, and it now works as it should (with the exception of poor motion detection). I think the problem was this: -After powering on the camera, I set motion detection to ON to try it out -When it stopped recording after a few minutes (due to crappy motion...

    DVR 207 GS review

    I've been playing with my DVR 207 GS for a few days, and I've got some things to say about it! I bought from futuretrend01 on ebay for $50. It arrived way faster than expected! The video quality is as expected, though perhaps it's a bit harder to make out licence plates than I would like. See...

    DVR207 from futuretrend01 on eBay

    Bought a DVR207GS from futuretrend01 on ebay for $50 - seems legit. Has HDMI, video quality is good. I'm running into some minor issues (won't auto-start recording unless motion detection is on, etc) but I'm not convinced this isn't an issue common to all DVR207GS's. UPDATE: My minor issues are...

    207 Lock Files

    I don't know if yours is the G-sensor model, but apparently the sole purpose of the G-sensor is to lock files when it senses an impact. I'm not sure if it can be done outside of that context.

    Recording does not automatically start

    Interesting. I got mine from futuretrend01 - it could be fake, but the video quality seems to match what I've seen here, and it does have the G-sensor (theoretically). Is yours the version before the G-sensor was added? My firmware is listed as v1207311. Does that match yours?

    Recording does not automatically start

    I just got mine today and was looking here to see if anybody else had this issue. After playing around a bit, I've discovered that motion detection must be ON to automatically start recording. I don't know why, but it has to be on. This sucks because when my camera is mounted high up in my big...
