Hey everyone,
After a few evenings of working on this for a couple hours a night, I present to you the ITB-100HD bitrate mod.
It takes the bitrate from 7 Mbps to 12 Mbps. The average bitrate goes from 5.5 Mbps to 9.5 Mbps (average because it is recording in Variable BitRate mode - VBR). A 1 minute file is now about 70 MB.
See screenshots below. I don't have any in-car video yet as my ITB-100HD is still sitting on my work desk (aren't I brave -- or dumb -- to experiment on my only dashcam?!).
No hexediting of source files were done for this mod. So, everything works like it should... except the bitrate is now almost twice as much. The mod basically creates a "wrapper" for the original programs allowing me to set the bitrate manually. Based off the latest 2.1 firmware. Does NOT have the MPH mod.
Anyway, enjoy and let me know if you notice any improvements!
PS - The background video is of my kitchen and it's blurry because the film is still on the lens!
To install, copy the ITB100HDFW.BIN file to a blank sd card and insert in device. Turn ON device and you'll hear some slow steady beeps. After a minute or so, it will power down (3 descending beeps) and then after another 30 sec (give it time! don't freak) it'll power up again.
