Rear Camera records in parking mode but not when driving.

[jeparham]

I've had the front camera installed for a couple of weeks.

This week I finally got around to installing the rear camera.

The rear camera works as expected in parking mode. It does NOT, however, work when I'm driving down the road.

Any suggestions? The manual that came with the camera is... not helpful.

Hello，

The rear camera works as expected in parking mode. It does NOT, however, work when I'm driving down the road.

The rear camera's normal driving files are always named Year_Date_Time_R. While its parking file name is Year_Date_Time_PR. Please check the SD card to see if there are rear cam's driving files saved.

Or could you please share your SD card file list here?

Here is the file list for yesterday in the MOVIE folder. As you can see, the rear camera is not creating any files.

I reformatted the SD Card and also changed the live view back to "Front Camera with Rear Overlay".

One of those two changes seems to have fixed my problem, as the rear camera recorded during my morning and evening drives today.
