Just got my Xiaoyi dashcam. Already flash to US firmware. About the quality of the recording, you guys just stick with 1080 or the highest?

I'm using it with 32 GB card at the moment.

Stick with 1080p as the 1296p is interpolated from 1080p.

Thanks will stick with 1080p. Next project is to hide the cable properly in the car πŸ˜„

How you flash to US firm ? Any different with stock version ?

BTW im just buy Power / Black Edition, does it support also ?

Apparently the video how to on YouTube did not work for my CABAA model. Followed a tutorial from a forum that need to add an additional txt file named AAA222CCC.txt that contains the new US edited serial number in order to get the serial number to be overwrite. After that instead of downloading the firmware need to download the emergency aid. Viola, done flashing the firmware πŸ˜„

For power edition, not sure

Guys, is there any specific angle or how far the dashcam should be set from the windscreen to get maximum recording quality?

This is my first recording, but does not look sharp enough. Looking at the number plate unless it is really close. Skip to 1:36

Firmware version: V-1.03.026 flashed from CN to US.

Is not "mushigen" already give you idea?
"I would lower the angle a bit to record my bonnet instead of seeing so much sky. If you view your video, seeing too much sky makes the video a little distorted and cause giddiness. In addition, with such high angle, you might record very dark traffic videos if you are facing the sun in the evening time. You install the cam to record traffic, not UFOs, right? "

Instead of the Camera Len set on 45 degree, try move to 50 or lower bit...Lot different especially night time.

I see, sorry misunderstood earlier haha. Will give that a try

My nearly 2 years yi dashcam finally giving me issues.

I noticed the recording playback on via app wifi connection will stuck after 2 or 3 second and not responding. Same thing when try to save the recording via app.

So far reset to factory setting and change sd card from samsung evo plus to sandisk extreme still the same issues, both are original sd card.

Anything else can be done or it’s a new dashcam for me
