Купил пару месяцев назад. Дисплей умер. Запись не идет. Буду возвращать в магазин товар отвратительного качества

reload the firmware, if you see it again the camera will need to go to @alexsoll and I will sort it out with him

there's a bug in the motion detect though, it's not reliable enough to be used

Ok thanks

That’s a Novatek bug I’ve seen pop up even on other Novatek NT96663/NT96660 based dashcam products. The Fix is easy. Update to the latest firmware.

Talking about other NT96663/NT96660 models, so it wasn't/isn't the ribbon cable?

more likely ribbon cable needs reseating

Deep down I still don't buy it, think it's software related. Saw it recently on the 6663 camera but just for a split second and it didn't cause any issues. Will keep a closer look.

You mean same as the 6660 model in question or the DC?

And it's still happening with the new ones.

If it's a Novatek bug, which I also think it is. Very unsettling till it's fully resolved.

the problem doesn't appear often enough to point toward it being a firmware bug

Affects reliability (something I know you guys take seriously). Hopefully this can be put to rest once and for all.

С первого раза проблему не решил. Прошился второй раз. Проблема ушла

Кто какие параметры экспозиции выставляет на перед и зад, на ночь и на день?

Does this camera supp0rt 265Gb cards? I have 128 at the moment, but they cycle round and overwrite a little quickly.

(Want to use the HW kit too, but currently annoying people about that in the other thread.......)

 

[niko]

Yes, 256GB card supported.

Thanks
Also, that reminds me, haven't sent your dead rear camera back yet (been on holiday).

A quick question regarding AE metering...

I have a black dashboard and a white car, which makes the DC work hard on the exposure front. The way my cam is positioned, it shows a small amount of dash, followed by the bonnet (hood) then obviously the actual road ahead.

The cam is currently set with centre weighted metering and sometimes it seems over exposed. At a guess I think it’s because the centre of the frame is normally dark roads/trees etc which makes the white bonnet and sky too bright.

So, with that in mind, would it be better for me to have the AE metering in ‘full frame’ mode? I was thinking that it would then take my white bonnet into account...
