one set of files from Friday (23 mins worth from a 28 min trip).one set of files from Thursday (17 mins worth from a 17 min trip) and.So at the end of your Friday commute you have: If your trip is actually 28 mins long, the video recording continues for another 3-minute chapter and we end up with a total of 23 minutes of video footage, from our total elapsed time of 28 minutes (4 x 5 min chapters and 1 x 3 min chapter). So when the camera approaches 24m:59s - just before another 5-minute chapter is completed - your GoPro will automatically delete the first chapter (the footage recorded in the first 5 minutes) to complete that 25th minute and continue recording. The camera setting of 20 mins means that once you stop recording you will have at least 20 mins of footage (assuming you recorded longer than 20 mins).
Now let’s say on Friday there was some heavy traffic and your commute took 28 mins (as per the diagram above) - because the interval was set to 20 mins you would have reached the point at which the camera would start to overwrite footage. Now let’s say on Thursday your commute took 17 mins - because the interval was set to 20 mins you would have recorded the entire trip (with no overwriting) and you would have 3 x chapters of 5 mins each and one chapter of 2mins. On the HERO4 this gives you a chapter size of 5 mins. Let’s say you want to record your daily commute and you had the interval set to 20 minutes. Let’s look at an example to make this clear. Note that this overwriting behaviour only occurs to the CURRENT recording.
This is a good option for the daily commute if you want to record an incident. This mode will overwrite the oldest section of the file currently being recorded so that your SD card doesn’t fill up. Here are some options to choose from: Loop Mode If you are documenting a road trip, you might choose different settings if you are recording your daily commute. Well, it really depends on your use case. So what GoPro settings to use as a Dashcam?
Set that to the desired setting (eg Looping), and anytime you power on your camera it will start in that mode using the settings you last set for that mode.Go into the Setup Menu and scroll down until you see Default Mode on the back LCD screen, or "DFLT" if you are using the front LCD screen and the buttons of the camera.
Once you have chosen the desired functionality (which we will look at below), just set your default power up mode as follows: This lets you choose different operating modes depending on what you are trying to do. Rather, it will just use the default power on mode that you have set for the camera. You can read all about our product ‘Dash’ here to convert your GoPro into a Dashcam.īut to keep the GoPro configuration and dashcam functionality flexible, we don’t force the camera into a particular shooting mode. As an added bonus, if used with a HERO4 camera, the included wired push button remote can be used to trigger the GoPro's "highlight" function in video modes so that the important footage can be easily found when later reviewing the footage captured. The CamDo Dash controller lets you convert your camera for easy use as a GoPro Dashcam by automatically turning the GoPro on/off with the ignition and start/stop recording at the same time.
