    Bumps in the road triggers locked file?

    G-sensors for sure better tuned these days, but TBH i prefer to have it off, at least in regard to when driving. But some dont allow for this and so i will have to make do with the low setting, which on Danish roads are also enough most times, not even talking 1 activation a week.

    70mai a810 unusable emergency video

    I am not a fan of systems that use a short memory buffer for pre event footage, as mentioned i like a bit more than a few seconds. Mind you that is also most often there in among the regular footage if we talk a while driving event, as for parking guard well nothing is there unless you are using...

    Total Eclipse

    Hayyyyy a Suzuki " GV" just like the one i had, though mine was the 1.9 DDIS and that one is probably a gasoline version. I have not experienced something like that, but i have been way up north on Greenland and had the sky explode in northern lights above my head, and that was extremely epic.

    Unit Gets Warm

    Yes to hot cameras, and all of them, from your little dash / action camera to really expensive cinematic cameras. The action side, well gopro and others seen thermal shut downs for many many revisions of their cameras, same with other brands. I cant say i recall any dashcams overheating in...

    What should I buy?

    To me it seem like the cloud based cameras, these also being the very most expensive ones, are the ones that often do parking guard best. The downside to those then is often they get beaten on image quality by cheaper not cloud enabled systems. Vortex radar in here and on youtube he got bucket...

    What should I buy?

    All dashcams record as soon as you start the car, if you also want that to happen when you are parked that is also possible by turning on parking guard. ( hard wire kit needed to enable parking guard ) But there are still some issues to be mindful of, first and foremost power use while parked...

    Pics that make you smile

    :) in a ironic kind of way. It is funny how the world work, and unrelated things seem to be related none the less. Notre Dane cathedral under renovation burn down. 5 Years - 13 hours and 17 minutes later and the 400 year old Danish stock exchange also under renovation burn. Then...

    Adding 2 or 3 hardwire taps

    I have run up to 3 hard wire kits with a total of 8 cameras on a single fuse ( 10 A car circuit ) with 5 A fuses in the new circuit for the cameras.

    A dashcam that can use the factory rearview chanel

    Yes it is not all cars that have a very low mounted reversing camera, but higher mounted ones might then be very downwards facing and so probably lack visual reach further out back. Also yes some new cars have a camera instead of the traditional mirror, not quite sure what to think of those...

    Dashcams

    Yep the 3 way splitters are nice to have, i still have 2 of those in my glove box but the one under my rear seat are long gone. Also OP might want, at least for rear camera to extend the 12 V side so his original power source can reach

    Dashcams

    You can grab power from the same fuse with 2 hard wire kits just fine, i have run up to 3 hardwire kits and 9 cameras on the same 5 A fuse tabs in my car ( tapping into a 10 A circuit ) If you do not want to use parking guard but just want to have your in Dash socket free for other stuff, you...

    To remove or not to remove the dashcam in hot weather

    Well the big + with dashcam batteries is they are very small, so i would assume also a lot less violent than phone or even larger batteries. And if the case plastics are packed with rather nasty fire- inhibitors, actually burning your car to the ground is minimal i guess, i cant recall a story...

    Dashcams

    Welcome to the forum Bd500 Separate power cables for front / rear camera sound strange, i have only seen / tested systems where the rear camera are powered from the front camera, most often with a USB cable that also move the data to the front camera where the memory card is. You can not power...

    A dashcam that can use the factory rearview chanel

    Welcome to the forum m32. You will not find any dashcam that can tap into a cars reversing camera, okay some cheapos that have a low resolution rear camera that is analog signal. But that is ancient technology and not something you would want to run. Even if the car have a digital rear camera...

    The list of shame fake 4K dash cameras Ultra HD

    Insta 360 launching true 8K camera ( 360 ) in 2 days, so dual 4K sensors i assume. Still pretty neat, also the bare minimum that could get me to go into 360 cameras.

    Pics that make you smile

    hehe yeah. You cant really do crypto mining in Denmark due to the price of power here, sure if you have your own wind turbine or solar array you can to some degree. But relying on what come in a cable in the ground, that would make it a no go. Okay their plans with renewables here will beef...

    I just read a news story saying in 2030, AI will use 25% of the US power consumption. https://www.tomshardware.com/tech-industry/artificial-intelligence/ai-may-eventually-consume-a-quarter-of-americas-power-by-2030-warns-arm-ceo Thats some price to run what is essentially a huge calculator. :)...

    Pics that make you smile

    Well that was the word used in news. With the lastest happenings here, it could potentially be a crime, ( leaving out white people i assume / it could be argued for racist reasons ) A guy here was sentenced to 7 days of jail for running a web page with jokes on it. Seem like jokes on the expence...

    VIOFO Improvement Wish List 2024

    I think solid state storage like M2 drives are plenty fast and can handle plenty of high quality streams too. A spinning HDD of course is a no go, i am however amazed they will not die, and have now grown to HUGE sizes ( I vivid remember when i got first large spinning HDD for PC which was 1.2...

    VIOFO Improvement Wish List 2024

    My action camera dji Osmo action V1, do 4K/60 100 mbit, and what is amazing is it dont really go strait to overheating either, i can record a whole battery worth of footage just fine, without being outside and in a hurricane. I would like better ( higher ) bitrate too, but NOT when saving to...
