- 2x0801, 0806 (broken), Mobius 1, Mobius 2, Auto-Vox B60
Just noticed some odd behaviour over the last few days with the Mobius which is powered using an external power pack and is fitted with the battery rather than the capacitor so records all the time, and a Mini 0806 which is hard-wired in, so starts recording when the ignition is on.
Was checking over and viewing some video footage from a couple of days ago on the 0806 and noticed that it had stopped recording whilst I was driving, then started recording again some hours later when I set off from home, having checked the file numbers I noticed they were consecutive so it's not like the files were lost, it's just that the footage was never recorded.
So having sworn at the 0806 I ejected the card from the Mobius to view the same footage only to discover that it too had forgotten to record some footage on the same day, and once again, the file numbers were consecutive so it's not like they have been lost or deleted - please note that the missing footage isn't at exactly at the same time, but still extremely annoying.
This isn't the first time I've noticed that footage hasn't been recorded, but is the first time I've noticed that both dash cams were exhibiting similar behaviour in not recording at random times whilst driving.
I've now formatted both cards so will wait and see whether this cures the problem.
Any suggestions as to why this has randomly happened to both of them on the same day, and has anyone encountered this before?
