Hi all,
I have the cam installed yesterday. No problems except in parking mode recording. It records about 2-3 hours in parking mode. Happened two times. I've checked on-screen battery voltage on the last recorded part and it shows 12.8V. Any ideas, why this happens? |

It's possible. The latest records on the card show that camera recorded 5 hours parking footage. I'll change the setup.cfg file and see what will happen. Last edited by civciv; 08-18-2016 at 02:59 AM.. |

I just had the advanced car eye installed on my f32. I called a few dealers in socal area but they never heard of the dashcam and said they would not be able to install it so I had to go to another car audio shop. I am having an issue where the camera stays in parking mode and beeps when I go over bumps or accelerate quickly. Anyone else have a similar issue? When on the freeway the LCD screen turned on for like 3 minutes but then it went back into park mode. I'm thinking of trying to hit the reset button. Any other suggestions?

It just looks so damn big! I wish the front camera was the same size as the rear.

Hi all,
I'm having a question about the motion detection. How does this works? It also works for people that are moving around you car or only with a bump to the car? Thanks! |

Can somebody with the bmw cam installed clarify a point for me?
You can chose to record front or front and back. Does it record two separate streams on the SD card? In other words, do you get two separate "clean" videos and not just the picture in picture combo. Thanks! |

Figured it out myself. The first time it switches on after a fw upgrade it gives you the option to chose between several languages. |

Does anyone know if it would be possible to improve the quality by specifying higher bitrates? Basically the video pixelates or breaks up when there is a whole lot of movement on the scene.
I find the sharpness a little lacking on this unit coming from a Vico came previously. You have to be almost right behind the unit to be able to make out the license plate number. The Rear cam quality is also rather poor. |

Hi!
I recently bought the camera and once it went out off the dealer that installed it, I began learning. Basically rear camera was not connected properly and I fixed it. One thing that gets to me is that I can't see the same videos in my mac that with the camera. Any chance you know why the difference? On the other hand, while seeing videos in the camera, I often get "Invalid File" in a sequence. From that point forward nothing is recorded until a new event happens. Has anyone experienced this? Thanks!

Hi i have the same dash camera for long time is great but now I have an issue with the calibrations of the screen looks like lost the position so now I can press or use all the functions that are located to the top of the screen because the position to activate those functions now is even higher out of the screen so I can’t use the top functions of the screen , I try to recalibrate , I reset the sister and nothing change , do you have any idea. I am thinking to buy another one and just replace the front camera because is the one that has the problem. If you know something how to fix it please let me know , I already all to the BMW dealer they don’t know about this BMW product , I bought mine from Germany.

I have to say I'm questioning the long term reliability of this dash cam. I've had mine for about 2 years but now when it is cold outside the screen turns green and doesn't show anything until it warms up.
I think it's time BMW release a new version of this dash cam with better resolution, compression and reliability as there are plenty of newer dashcams that now do a better job.

I just fitted this and my rear cam is severely blurred out of the box. When I looked closer the lens is free to rattle around in the main housing. It looks as though it should have been held in place with glue. I wonder if any others going blurry have got the same fault as mine - glue unstuck and allowing the lens to move out of its correct position?!
Taking mine back up to the dealer (UK based - hopefully for a straight swap). |
