I usually keep videos of the past week if nothing happens. How about you guys?
Thanks for sharingHowever long it takes the loop recording to loop.
After long journeys I used to swap the card to avoid the loop recording overwriting that journey the next day, but now that cards have got bigger I rarely do more than reduce the bitrate to extend the loop time for long journeys.

When I first started dashcamming I saved everything- I think many do- but in time it was just too much hassle to bother with But now I don't save much, mostly things I'm involved with or which happen close to me. I've got some 'cam review' footage on YT and I think a little more. But most of what I have there is unlisted or private since I use YT for backup storage in case this cheap laptop dies suddenly I'm not interested in publishing car-crash or bad driving vids. If I had done them from where I used to live I could have compiled 5 minutes worth every day and I only drove on average 40 minutes per day back then My cams and their footage are for protecting me so there's little I feel a need to save. One dual cam of mine has a card which holds around 2 1/2 days of my average driving and that's probably more than I'll ever need but if the money becomes handy I'll be getting more and bigger cards.
