Hi,

I'm new here, so please be kind.:)


I'm having a problem with my B4K videos playing in Dashcam Viewer (on Mac).

Even though the program process the ts file, the video display window is just black (tried with all video resolutions).

The GPS data gets processed and displayed correctly.

I cleared all settings of DCV several times, often the program then crashes the first time trying to play back a B4K file. Subsequent attempts result in no crash, but alas, no video display.


VLC plays the files just fine, so does DVPlayer (including GPS data), with limited features compared to Dashcam Viewer though.

I just bought the B4K (firmware V15) new and tried DCV (3.8.1 and 3.9.1) on a 2014 iMac (BigSur) and on a M1 (Monterey).

I also downloaded and played a B4K (V009) file found on this forum, all with the same result: no video.


Has any of the B4K owners successfully played back its files with DCV on a Mac?

Is there any program other than DVPlayer that works on a Mac with GPS processing, preferably with the option to extract GPS data to gpx files?

Is there anything else I could try (except Windows)?
