Understand Loop Recording Issues
- Loop recording is a feature that enables continuous recording by overwriting the oldest files when the memory card is full.
- If your Vantrue Dash Cam is experiencing issues with loop recording, it might stop recording altogether or fail to overwrite the oldest files.
Check Your Memory Card
- Ensure you are using a high-quality, Class 10 or above memory card with adequate storage capacity, as lower-class cards may not handle data properly.
- Format the memory card using the dash cam's format function rather than a computer to ensure it uses the correct file system.
Adjust Dash Cam Settings
- Make sure loop recording is enabled in the camera settings. Verify that the duration is set correctly, generally at 3, 5, or 10 minutes.
- Disable any features that might be preventing loop recording, such as G-sensor or parking mode, which may protect files and prevent them from being overwritten.
Update Firmware
- Check for any available firmware updates for your Vantrue Dash Cam. Manufacturers often release updates to fix bugs and improve performance.
- Follow the manufacturer's instructions for updating the firmware carefully, using the correct firmware for your specific model.
Test and Monitor Performance
- After making adjustments, test the dash cam's loop recording by driving for a period and reviewing the footage to ensure it's functioning properly.
- Continuously monitor the performance over several days to confirm that the loop recording issue is resolved.
