Not sure if users paid attention on a new feature of Datacam player / Registrator Viewer ( v5.9 )
Vadim ( RV Developer ) added an easy adjustable "Overlap time" into GUI Menu Settings.
With early versions you had to use "regedit" to adjust needed overlap value, which many people don't know or don't want to mess around. Now it is made easy job.
How to adjust overlap time, - look below.
Why you need to adjust overlap time ?
- in case you want to playback more than one file or stitch them together without having a "jump" between video clips, you need to cut an overlap time for smooth playback, which can be different depending on dashcamera specifics, or settings. Most dashcams have overlap time set to 1sec ( 1000ms ), but in some dashcams this figure is different or selectable.
For example Panorama series have 0, 1, 2 sec overlap time selectable from menu.
Another example: Mobius, as most other Novatek NT96650 based dashcams should have 1 sec ( 1000ms ) overlap value, but I have tested frame by frame and using default overlap time 1000ms still leaves very tiny "jump", so by test and try I found out that for Mobius the best value is 1020ms ( you see it from picture below ).
Same way you can change overlap value to any other dashcam specifics.
Hope this article will be useful for you.
