Initially, I was not sure the pros outweighed the cons. I am pleased with the quality of the video, both night and day. The video quality is the best I've seen on a dashcam. Now that I've eliminated the hardwire to the car battery things are better because there's no more risk of a dead battery in the morning. However, I still have some things I need help with.
1) I can't find any files on the memory card for the previous day. I have been looking for files with the last modified file date of the previous day. I'm looking directly at the memory card in the camera before anything is copied to my pc. I'm using the recommended Nextbase memory card and I reformated it in the camera within the last two weeks
The camera only runs when the car is running. I seem to have this problem no matter how much I drive each day. I can only assume that somehow the camera is overwriting the data from the previous day. I am running both front and rear cameras. I have not gotten the camera to copy any files to the "protected directory when I press the protect" button. on the bottom of the camera. I will get the red lock icon on the screen when I press it, but it does not seem to be protecting the files. I expected those protected files to be found on the "protected subdirectory on the card, Is that not right? In parking mode, the camera does not respond to motion in front of it, or when the camera is bumped. My sensitivity is still the default value, which is the "medium level, I think.
