When you restart your vehicle, does it automatically turn on and remember which video source it used last?

Yes it does. It based off your indash not these tvs. These tvs only pair from the main monitor up front.

My system doesn't come on when you crank the car. It's a reliable system either.

Hello, Yes the dvd player has the "Resume" feature which allows you to turn off the vehicle, and the dvd player will remember where it was when the power cut off. thank you

Yes it does come on automatically to what ever input was last toggled to. For the most part I leave mine to all 4 cameras the Quad display. When I am hooking up or pulling a trailer I would toggle to just rear view full screen and it holds that setting after power down/up.

It continuously records. It will stay powered on if you plug it into an accessory outlet that's powered even when the ignition is off. It loops back over previously recorded video. I keep mine on 24/7 so it records when I'm driving and records when my truck is parked. It also has a motion sensor that can be programmed to record when it's idle.

If memory serves, I believe it does as long as you do not disconnect power; if using the battery, just hit "Stop", and it will when restarted.

I don't know if this is a question, but if there is no video input it will turn itself off after a timeout period. I've never had it turn on by itself though.

It will automatically turn on and off with the vehicle if connected to switched power, so I would recommend that rather than using an always-on circuit and having to turn the camera on and off manually.

When I first set mine up, the videos were set to only record for 1 min, so it would start and stop every 60 seconds. I since changed it to 10 minutes. It also was set on motion-control, so when I would stop at a red light, it would shut off after a few seconds and then turn on once I would start driving. Perhaps those are what you are encountering.

Hi Smith, Thank you for contacting Timetec. Yes, if you leave the power plugged into the cigarette charger, when you start the car, the camera will start recording automatically. Feel free to let us know if you have any additional questions. thank you, Andy support@timetecinc.com

Yes, they basically worded it incorrectly in the instruction manual. Enabling this feature will remember the On/Off state of the TV when it loses power. So if you unplug it while it is turned on, it will turn itself back on once you plug it back in. It has nothing to do with the video signal. I tried the tech support people and even they weren't aware of this.

When I use the included lighter adapter, mine starts recording as soon as I start the car (the car's lighter socket is switched).

It gets it's power directly from the head unit. As long as your head unit supports video you will be fine. It's universal so it will automatically work.

Yes Gordon, it has a loop record function. So when memory is full the old one is deleted automatically to make room for new video. Any Save ON Storage (SOS) video will not be deleted automatically (this happens when you press the SOS button).

When I shift into reverse (at which time power is applied to the connected backup camera via a tie-in with the backup lights), the screen comes on immediately. And yes, as soon as the video input stops, the monitor shuts off.This is the camera I use with the monitor:Esky EC170-08 High Definition Car Rear View Backup Camera

Yes. It dose automatically loop through old video files once it reaches full capacity.

YES. If you stop playback, turn off the player or remove the DVD and then put it back in and restart the player it will automatically search last memory playback... AS LONG AS YOU TURN THIS FEATURE "ON" IN THE GENERAL SETUP PAGE DROP DOWN MENU UNDER "LAST MEMORY". The factory default is set to "OFF". And yes, it does work like it was designed to as long as it is turned on.

The old files erase and the camera keeps recording without any input from you. Things to note get a trusted 32 gig card and format it in the camera and if you want to keep a event manually lock that video file so the camera does not erase it. If your vehicle bounces around like my semi truck turn off the G sensor option or you will have a lot of locked video files
