Default PDR Help

I have a new SD card in the slot and it tells me I have >800 min of record time available. I am able to start and stop a recording period and I also see a list of recorded sessions. I am unable to select any of the recorded sessions to replay. Help

I'm just getting into recording with the PDR, so I don't know all the ins and outs yet.
What size card are you using?
Has it been formatted to FAT32?
Is it a class 10 card?
Have you tried playing the videos on a computer?

You can't be moving for playback, not certain, but it may need to be in park. Not sure if that is the issue you are experiencing but something to check.

I agree. Also take the SD card out and stick it in your PC and see if there are any mp4 files on it. Then use the PC to play the files using an app like VLC.

Now I feel dumb. It just formatted the SD card and now it works. Was supposed to already be formatted. Thanks for pointing me to the obvious.

Glad you got it figured out. I like the software GM has you use.

A reminder that Spring Mountain recommends turning off recording before turning off your motor to avoid corruption.
