UPDATE or NO UPDATE? ... that is the Question!
The latter, unfortunately .. tried twice today with no luck using a PC at the local Library
Crikey .. Mac computers are sooo much easier to use than PCs .. except for dealing with the likes of VicoVation .. it would seem.?
Although I deleted files/remnants of MAC off the Card Reader/SD Card .. I do not believe they exit without a fight .. and hang around eg. '.DS store
I tried to delete everything except EVENT, NORMAL and the .bin file ... No Go
Conclusion
VicoVation are NOT MAC compatible at present .. or certainly NOT MAC friendly.
My guess is that to overcome the difficulty in Updating your VicoVation Firmware when you own a MAC .. is for either VicoVation to make it easier/compatible .. or you need to acquire the services of a Geek who is familiar with VicoVation Dash Cams as well as Windows PCs and the quirks of Apple MAC.
I certainly don't see the point of continually banging my head against a brick wall .. or have to pay a Geek $ .. for minimal benefit.
Ok ... no Firmware Updates .. bit of a Bummer .. only the Dash Cam works brilliantly otherwise
Rating - *8.3/10 (not Mac friendly -no Firmware Updates, Audio is a little dodgy .. (which is what the Firmware Update also addresses), Lithium battery rather than Capacitor, only a 1 Year limited Warranty. (Premium brands should be 2 Years -if they have any Faith in their products)
* Early days
Disclaimer: I am no Electronics Gadgets Guru .. so .. the above comes to you from a n00b .. who has NFI what is going on with this Dash Cam ... trust me
I have skills in other areas .. but not this one.
