Mobius support thread and Tech Guide (post all problems/help requests here) Read posts #1-8 first

When I play a video recorded with Mobius One, VLC presents distorted audio (volume goes up and down, and it is scratchy), but in potplayer no such thing, works great. The thing is, I have M1's and I want to use it as a USB camera (webmode). Check this:

 
Yep i have also seen that issue with some players, cant recall if it was VLC or what, but i quickly fount out it was just in the player and it was gone after i had stitched one of my youtube uploads together.
I blame Microsoft and windows 10, they really not been great lately with their updates ASO.
 
I noticed that audio in VLC when I chose .mov but play OK in QT,
But if format is mp4, noise goes away in VLC.
But I am on Mac.

I think I tried MP4, but I'm not sure. But I think it does not solve the issue for webcam use in ZOOM for example... But I can try anyway.
 
I recall there being an issue with a VLC update some months back but I can't remember what the issue was.I never allow automatic updates so it didn't affect me but I'll have to do some digging around to see if they fixed the problem sooner or later as the older versions of things can stop working when technology advances.Still using W8.1 home here and planning to never go to W10; W7 was the last decent product MS offered and they're not going to change course to anything better now.

BTW, did I mention the Maxi works great in webcam mode?
 
OK, so, changed to MP4 and AVI, and both playback in VLC with sound OK (no up/down jumping and distortion), so that's good.

In webcam mode video however still no sound in ZOOM, as in VLC.....

That s@cks, cause now I can ONLY use in loop mode with MOV, but that's not cool in VLC (my program of choice), and loop doesn't work with MP4 ... aaahhhrggg

Guess I'll leave it on AVI then. Any cons/drawbacks for that mode by any chance?? 😒
 
Hi all,

I'm having a bit of trouble with my mobius 2.

Firmware: latest available (2.41)
Power: Permanent power with super capacitor.
Mode: motion detection and loop recording on.


When first recording on a newly formatted SD card it creates the usual folders DCIM / 100HDDVR and starts placing files there as expected.

However for some reason it will, at some point, start creating additional 100HDDVR folders, e.g. 100HDDVR(1) etc

This seems to mess with the loop recording and eventually the card fills up.

Has anyone else experienced this and found a solution?

There is a dedicated support thread for the Mobius 2 (M2). The thread doesn't get much traffic since the camera was discontinued some time ago. As @Harsh already pointed out it sounds like you have an M1 camera rather than an M2. The last firmware update for the Mobius 2 was v2.14.

FWIW, the last firmware update for the Mobius Maxi was v 2.40 just in case that is confusing the issue.

If @Harsh's suggestion doesn't work double check your settings in mSetup. Also, try turning off motion detection and see what happens.

If the problem persists try reinstalling the firmware.
 
If you're a biker like me, and want to record your epic ride outs, you must be painstakingly annoyed by the level of windnoise you're getting. So did I, because as much as I like the images, I also want to get as clean as possible exhaust songs recorded...... And up to some 40 mls/hr it's actually not that bad, but if you're an upshifter and breaking the speed at levels where there's no room for fear, the wind noise grows exponentially.

Therefore we can use external mikes with special addons for noise reduction.

Now, I wouldn't be a Dutchy if I hadn't tried to get the unwanted noise down without any external mike-hassle and for less then a dollar (or eu... whatever). So I tested something that probably have cost me 20 cents or so.

This time I used the Mobius One, so that's why I posted here, but you can transfer that to all similar setups ultra easy.

First seller listed in the China section is the manufacturer, send them a message and they'll be able to let you know how to get a battery
 
Shipping lipo batteries can be bit of a problem in today's world, i have replaced a battery in my mobius maxi with one i was able to source in a local shop, just needed to solder the plug from the old battery to the new one.

In general all you need to know is the size of the original battery.
 
eletoponline365 is the original factory authorized Mobius outlet on eBay. Unfortunately, they will no longer ship batteries through the mail.

digitalele889 is also an authorized direct Mobius seller and they will probably be willing to ship you a battery if you contact them and ask.

Banggood has Mobius batteries for sale and you can visit the following link to order one.
