In your screenshot, I see all other files are starting with a S_ prefix (which I believe is used only for event videos to be permanently retained). These won't match the GPX file names (none of them will have the S_ prefix) and hence RV will have no GPS information to use. You'll see that the RV screenshot I posted also has no GPS info for the entry which has the S_ prefix.
I would probably first investigate why most of the videos are saved with S_ prefix by your cam and fix that issue.
On a side note, I also forgot to mention that the batch file that I attached in my previous post uses 7zip to unarchive the tar file. Will update that step to mention this. If you haven't already, ensure that you have 7zip installed and included in your PATH environment variable.
Is it possible in any way to view the messages of the execution of 'SyncDateTime.ps1 ?.
Well, as shown in the screenshot, after deleting all the files that begin with "S_" and executing the file 'extract-gps.bat' from the folder 'V:\DDPAI MOLA N3\DCIM\203gps\ tar ' and execute' SyncDateTime.ps1 'with PowerShell from the folder 'E:\DDPAI MOLA N3 \DCIM\203gps', the result is the one that appears in the image.
There is no path of the route taken nor information on the duration or speed of the trip made.
Do you know what could be the cause of it?
Couple of things that I could observe:
- I presume V is the virtual drive you have created. DCIM should be the root folder in the virtual drive. It should read as V:\DCIM\...
- Not sure what your E: drive is (sdcard or local folder?) - you'll have to run extract-gps and syncdatetime both from the same drive (local) but different folders.
To investigate this further, let's consider the 17 mp4 files that RV has grouped under the name "20210127140521_0060(17)". Verify the following:
If the above points are confirmed, then the scripts have done their job correctly.
- You should have 17 gpx files in V:\DCIM\203gps with the same names as the 17 mp4 files (responsibility - extract-gps.bat)
- The "Date Modified" attribute of the 17 gpx files should match the "Date Modified" attribute of the 17 mp4 files (responsibility - syncdatetime.ps1)

It sounds like you have no permanent power to the yellow wirePowers up when both feeds are live (red & yellow). If I turn power off on any of them wires the camera turns off.
Parking mode doesn't appear to be working, I'm testing it again now.
Red wire = Acc, Yellow = constant live
Iv sorted it now. I had a piece of cardboard between the mount and the camera (to stop vibration) and this was affecting the connection.It sounds like you have no permanent power to the yellow wire

See if you have the gps files for those dates archived in the 203gps\tar folder with the extension as .git. If they are not there, then there is a chance that the camera might have erased them permanently.@Sara.ramli
I have returned to testing and copied the entire contents of the microsd card to a local folder.
I have observed that no information appears from the GPS data prior to a certain date (02/04/2021). Before that date, the info of the traveled routes (distance, speed, height, etc.) does not appear.
After that date, the GPS data does appear.
I've checked twice by copying all files back to a local folder and the same thing happens again.
I have looked in the local folder E:\DDPAI MOLA N3\DCIM\203gps and there are no .GPX files older than that date.
However, in the local folder E:\DDPAI MOLA N3\DCIM\ 200video\ front there are still all the .MP4 video files prior to that date.
The oldest video files in E:\DDPAI MOLA N3\DCIM\200video\front are dated 01/29/2021. Videos from that date (01/29/2021) play well but without GPS data.

Any idea why they might not appear?
I have not erased or formatted the memory card in quite some time.
Perhaps they have been automatically deleted by the camera software as more storage space is required for video?
Thank you.

I have looked and they are not all gps files. Older .GIT files are also dated 02/04/2021.Vea si tiene los archivos gps para esas fechas archivados en la carpeta 203gps \ tar con la extensión como .git. Si no están allí, existe la posibilidad de que la cámara los haya borrado de forma permanente.
Looks like the camera has deleted files prior to that date, to reclaim space.I have looked and they are not all gps files. Older .GIT files are also dated 02/04/2021.
I guess the camera must have erased them.

As far as I know the USB C connection on the camera is not wired the conventional way. Pretty sure its mentioned in this thread.Hi, I just bought a Mola N3 and installed with the hardwire kit to my car today. It seems to work fine, at least with the Android app. When I arrived home from my first test drive I wanted to check the contents on the camera with my PC, so I removed it from the windshield (only the camera of course). Since I don't have a card reader in my laptop, I wanted to connect the cam directly via a USB-C cable to my PC. The camera turned on, but in my PC I did not see any sign of the camera in the Device Manager. Is it normal operation that the cam makes no data connection via the USB interface?
This button is not for locking files, but locking the CAM physically to the GPS cradle.Yes there is a lock button on the mount (see number 9).
Does your laptop have a normal USB port? If so you could use something like this@Carloz @richx thanks for the reply!
It seemed like a good idea to directy transfer files from the cam to my laptop. Indeed, I saw somewhere here the irregular USB-C pinout as well, but then it was a bit controversial since others mentioned after firmware change from CN to global version the cam would boot up only after connecting directly to a PC, and not just a simple power supply.
By the way, I could simply connect the USB-C interface with a regular Samsung cable, but the cam will just behave like it was connected to a power source. Probably the GPS is not using USB standard to connect to the cam.
So I guess the only way to download videos at faster speed than the WiFi (takes about 30s transfer time for 1min file) would be to take out the memory card and put into a reader.Does your laptop have a normal
