Can you tell me a little bit more about this product ? Will it record automatically when I turn the car key on ? Will it automatically delete old file and record new one when the disc is full or do I have to do the delete ?

The Panorama will automatically start recording once the car is started and 12V cigarette lighter port powers the charger. Cyclic recording is the main feature of all DashCam products. Oldest file is deleted to make room for the newest file. You can set clip length to various sizes. For a complete information page check out the DashCamTalk FAQ page. As you can see the Panorama is the current "Best All Around" model and has a tremendous about of support behind it. dashcamtalk.com/powerucc-panoramaii/

No, you need a memory card for it to record on. My camera turns off and on automatically with the car.

Plugged into the lighter it will record continuously. If the SD card gets full it just loops around and starts recording over the oldest files

the same thing happen to me as well, I usually just switch on the car and turn the ignition all in one go, so it won't even have a chance to shut off, or if it gets cut off, there's a power button on upper right hand corner, you just need to press it and it will start recording againI'm not sure why everyone suggest to unplug the power cord, there's a power button on top of the dash cam(the button that's right next to the mounting area) so you can easily turn on and off, I'm sure my model is the same as everyone else

It records on a loop just like the old VHS security systems used to do. Once the drive is full it starts recording over the oldest video on the drive. No need to delete or format the HDD.

This recorder does not overwrite the oldest file as a dash cam would do. However, you can manually delete files to free up space. It also has internal memory, in addition to using the chip. If you get into a bind, you can delete files, switch to internal memory, or lower the resolution of the recording. An 8 gb chip will record about 12 hours at the highest resolution. a 32 gb chip will record for about 50 hours at the highest resolution and for about 368 hours with MP3 at 192.

It's a loop recording so it erases past info. Just get an 8 gb card. Only record in 3 minute sessions as you won't be able to send recorded video if file is too big.

The manual is no help. The menus are fairly intuitive...that being said, don't bother setting the date or time because it resets all by itself every now and then. Keep am eye on it sometimes it doesn't start when you turn on your car and won't record. Just remember...you get what you pay for. Don't expect much from this unit.

I would like to know also as sometimes when I record over 1 hour and 17 minutes it will not copy it do a cd; if smaller it will. So I have learned to stop at that point and start new recording if you want to transfer to a cd.

In my car it's fine. I would assume yours is the same. If you try to eject the disk while it's in, the player is smart enough to feel the resistance and stop.

Are you recording from a a camera or another source using a rca input if will record in real time. It will burn to the disc when it is finalized. hope this answer your question

I'm sure answers will vary , one the memory used and the battery, mine records for approx 2 hours , and it make a file at 59 min , then it will automatically begin a new file . I don't know why it does this but it works fine. it does tend to get a little warm when recording for a long period of time.

Once the vehicle engine is started, the device automatically turns on. If the Automatic Record function is enabled, the recording will automatically start right after the device turns on. See Set Automatic Recording or more information.

If an accident just happening in front of you, and you would like the file to be locked, just activate g sensor like William said ( say adjust the mirror a bit so the machine detects movement ) , then that specific file would be locked and after that locked file, it will still keep on recording hope this helpsthanks Marie

Hi:Hi:Yes, the process is automatic, in any case there are several options on the recording mode, the default is to overwrite. I hope this information will help ..Regards

If you plan to record video while car is parked. You need to supply continuous power to the head unit and turn on motion detection. This way, the camera will trigger recording only when motion is detected. Thank you.

Yes. That's the only way I use mine. When I turn on my car, it automatically turns on and starts recording.
