There is a viewer program that the cam puts on the card, you click it and it opens, also it puts a couple new files in the directory... When you select the folder where the videos are at.. DCIM.. they show up in the list. Click play, and nothing happens... no video, no GPS map shown..etc. It does this if you connect the cam to a USB to computer directly, or take the SD card out and do it that way.

Are there any other programs that work? VLC plays the videos fine... Just wondering in case I every want to see the GPS map data also.

Thanks

Use Registrator Viewer (link in my signature) works much better than the included software

Thanks... Went an looked at all the things listed.. Got the veiwer and the format utility.. I will be getting a 64Gig card and trying that. Do you know if the 128Gig cards will work.. they are a little pricey right now. But that would let me record my entire work shift.
Thanks again for all your help.

large cards can work but need to be formatted using a 3rd party formatting tool, again, link in my signature to that
 
Jokiin - what I mean is that my 805 will not playback the recorded videos. The blue light flashes to show recording, but when I try to view them it just says invalid file?

is that message when playing on the camera itself or when you playback on PC?
 
the invalid file comes up on the player
On the pc I have a few players but none of them can open the file - but there is content in them!
 
Have you tried a different memory card. It seems that you have corrupt files.

no I've not tried a new memory card - I will try that. As it stands I cannot watch the files on either the dash cam or my laptop but there is definitely content in the files. If I take a still photo with the camera I can view that no problem

And reformat your card... In the camera....
 
I just purchased the mini 0805 a few weeks ago, it came with a 16gb class 10 Kingston SD card, I haven't had any problems with playback until just then, I was trying to watch some clips from an hour ago on my laptop and it is saying they are corrupt files, but then the clips from 20 minutes ago seem to be working ok? I'm assuming it's the SD card, I haven't updated any firmwire or anything yet.
Anyone got any ideas? Thanks 🙂
 
I think Registration Viewer has a file fix capability that might be worth a shot 🙂

I remember VLC repairing a file on the fly but could never copy or retrieve it.
