Bro by the way, I cant really see the side parking car number plate during night recording while you car is moving.. Can you read the number in your original video file?

A119 & A119S is currently my daily dashcams now in my car... At the moment, they are the best for below rm400 dashcam range...
No dashcams in the world can't see clearly at night while the car is moving...

Thanks bro..!! Btw A199S is more than rm400 nearly rm500 with gps bangwall.gif

Right, thanks. So for this Mijia, if the SD card in the Mijia is 32GB, when recording in 1080p the SD card can only fit 4 hours of video? That means the card will have to re-write the videos in every 2 days assuming that the driver is on the road for an average 2 hours a day.
*
yes the card will auto rewrite every 2 days base on your situation... Just buy a good SD card to avoid SD card premature damage... Avoid Sandisk Ultra...

Hi I've just got my Mijia.

However, can anyone let me know where can I get the password to login to the cam using Mi Home app?

BTW, are there any third party portable mount for two-car usage?
*
use the wifi password in the setting....

blurjoey is there anyway to fully utilize the sd card for normal recording only? Right now i have around 20GB for normal recording and 10 GB for emergency recording... So theoretically I only have 20 GB space for recording which is too little...

y avoid sandisk ultra? is it no gooding? warranty 10yrs maa. last time I use 4gb for 2yrs on cheap dvr. after 2yrs it's spoiled, claim warranty but sandisk Malaysia no more 4gb card, they gimme 8gb (twice capacity) for replacement. now using 32gb for my eken h9r, so far so gooding for me. as long as u keep the receipt for 10yrs, u r good to go with sandisk. usually, after I buy something, I quickly snap picture of the receipt then email it to myself. that way, I can just throw away the receipt. if want to claim, just search inside my email. hehe
*
they accept softcopy receipt?

The darker video could be due to the firmware... Think mi need to tweak the firmware more...

Mine haven't hang yet though... Have you update the firmware of the mijia?

But 11street selling the mijia for rm230 now which is almost same as yi dashcam...

This weekend, I'll take the yi dashcam from my wife's car to do a day/night comparisons...

I using 1 year plus already seems OK for SanDisk

Your SanDisk died after how long using? Btw if it dies how SanDisk know what we used it for? Current price SanDisk cheapest to get rite.? Rm30+- can get 32gb card
*
When the Sandisk damage, it will goes into write protected mode which means u can't delete or write any new files anymore but you still can see what is in the micro sd card..

hi guys,

can't decide between Mijia and Xiaoyi dash cam. any reco? Since price is almost the same.

Also, I've been looking around and found out that there is many version of Xiaoyi (power, international). What's the difference other than the interface language? From some descriptions on the selling pages I see, the Power has lower fps rate than the international? Also I found out that the older version of the Xiaoyi is clearer than the newer ones? Does this have anything to do with firmware updates? I've been researching all night but still kelam kabut.  rclxub.gif

Wait TS do comparision video between mijia and xiaoyi.. coming soon..

Hi can I know what is the use of a Gsensor? And also what's the function for emergency recording?

Always in the midst of recording, suddenly a loading bar in red (with mandarin) appear at the bottom of LCD, can I know why is it there?

Lastly, possible to set the duration of recording for one video file before the program creates several files say 5 mins long?
*
Gsensor is a censor that trigger emergency recording if it detect a sudden shock or high vibration... mostly use if u meet an accident but sometimes it will auto trigger if u drive over the speedbump... If u dont like it, u can disable the function too..

In your SD card, it will separate into normal recording and emergency recording where each of them have their own space allocated... If it start to record a emergency video, u are unlikely to accidentally overwrite those videos when your sd card is full..

Files only 2 mins, cant change...

Thank you to t3n, blurjoey & NightFelix for the prompt reply!

However, I went thru the saved files and noticed that it does not always record everything from the moment the dash cam is on to the moment I switched off the engine.

Is it normal?

BTW, what app you guys recommend for stitching up the 2 min files into one video?
*
Did u trigger the emergency recording in between your drive? If yes then the files will be located in other folder..
