The general information page for the Cam-Pan-V2 shows, " Continuously record 28 days of video with Wyze microSD Card." Then later in page, under the “24/7 Continuous Recording” section, it shows, “Capture and view up to 3 days of continuous video with a 32 GB microSD card (sold separately).” Which…

The length of time you get onto the SD card depends on the quality of the video you are recording. If you record at the highest quality (HD), you are only going to get about 3 days, give or take a couple hours. If you record at the lowest quality (360p), you will get much more video time on the car…

[image] SlabSlayer: The file system on the SD cannot be accessed from the cam. Otherwise great response but this may need an “officially” in there, as I think one or two independent projects can now make that happen. (?)

I haven’t seen any posts yet of users being able to read, copy, or manipulate the card contents while it is mounted in the cam. But, you are correct. It is not designed or intended to be read while in the cam.

I don’t event understand the .mp4 files names from a V3 on the card when put in a PC :astonished: My Dash Cam has a file number/name with the date and the time that the 3 min video file ended so it is easy to find a video for a certain date and time.

I’m not going to be any help there. I don’t have any insight as to how the file naming convention was formulated… Or if there even is one.

[image] Antonius: I don’t event understand the .mp4 files names from a V3 on the card when put in a PC I’m doing this by memory so I may have this backwards, but it is a very logical filename - just not overly human readable. The parts of the filename are the MAC address and the epoch time (…

Thanks for that information. I usually just make a play list on VLC and play a few video files to see what time/date they were recorded then go up or down the list a few at a time to find what I want. :rofl:

It’s been noted that accessing a directory in VLC will treat the whole thing as one long seekable video if desired.

[image] SlabSlayer: haven’t seen any posts yet of users being able to read, copy, or manipulate the card contents while it is mounted in the cam. Sigh, I guess not. It sounded as if WyzeHacks and wz_mini_hacks did everything under the sun now so maybe I assumed. Meanwhile, @appleguru had th…

I get about 11.5 days of continuous recording in HD from the V3 camera using this SD card. You can read this long thread about using the 256 GB cards, (Still in Progress)
