How long will it record to the 32 GB card. Do you have to erase it on a computer.Does it record over other recordings.

I personally only use it to record for about 4 hours a day so I believe you can get about 12 hours of video on a 32 gb card and then it will record over automatically...You don't have to erase anything..

A full day's driving and then some, it will automatically erase oldest recording as long as it was NOT locked or recorded because of accident (G-sensor) then it remains until you unlock and erase. All can be done on the CDR via "clicker" or on computer.

It will delete oldest file first. File retention [in days] depends on driving/use. I set for 720p with audio for best quality and can view files from 2 weeks ago. The car is used for 60 mile round trip commute 5X a week.

Dashboard cameras are meant to record the last few events before a crash, in order to provide an account of what happened. With this in mind, dashboard cameras record in loops. This means that once the camera has recoded for a certain amount of time, it continually deletes the oldest footage, writing over that space with new footage. So you don't have to erase it with a computer. The amount of time this camera can record ranges from about 440 minutes to 620 minutes, depending on your video settings.

The video recorder will continue to overwrite data once it runs out of storage. Exception: there is a built in sensor when it senses a crash it will keep I believe 5 minutes before and after the event "marking" it as do not erase. I believe so you can use for insurance purposes. There is also a manual button you can use to "mark" video. I am using a 16GB card and I get 2 hours on best - so you should get about 4 hours.

There is a format button in the menu of the device. You can also format it on a windows based computer, not Mac. When the card gets full it will wrap and record over the existing data. Hope this helps.

You can record up to 8 hours with a 32 GB card. If you download it to your computer you do not have to erase it. When you record up to 32 GB it will randomly delete files from the first 5 per cent recorded.

I believe around 72 hours, mine is only put 8gb and it record up to 18 hours but there is a option for loop recording so mine is whenever the video file over 18 hours, it will delete itself and keep recording the new one, hope my answer will help you :)

That being a longer video, and If I remember correctly, it will record 4gb and then start another movie as a safety save type of thing. It will be seamless when edited. Do you have LOOP on or off? The answer may be there too.

The 32gb card will last about 5-6 hours before it gets overwritten. The loop setting of 1/3/5 mins decides the size of the recorded file. Thanks.

You cannot record over an existing recording, but you can erase the file and record again. I'm not sure you'll be satisfied with this as a music recording system - you would be better served by buying a cheap USB studio mic ($25 or so) and recording on your computer.

Mine has options in the menu for loop recording ("off", "3 min", "5 min", and "10 min"). I have it set to "off". When full it displays an icon that indicates that it's recording over the old footage, but when I go to play back the latest recording it isn't available. I pulled the card to check it on my laptop and

In "layman's terms," how much time does 32GB provide in recordings? (hours? minutes?)
1267012
The amount of data that is recorded varies tremendously. Variables affecting the total amount that can be recorded on a 32GB SDXC card are; recording resolution, frames per second, sound or no sound, GPS or no GPS. I record about 9 hours, 15 minutes at 900 HD resolution, 30 fps, with sound and GPS. The largest clip I've recorded is 173MB. At that rate, I can record 185 clips at 3 minutes per clip. After 9 hours 15 minutes of recording, the camera overwrites the oldest clip, in order. Hope this answers your question and helps.

No real need to do that. If you set the timer to 10 mins. it will just record in successive 10 min increments until the SD card is full at which time it will be to erase segments, oldest first and re record over them.

Mine only records when motion triggers it and it records for 30 seconds or as long as there is enough motion to be detected. You can set it to record over old recording if it is at capacity. I have a SD card that I download to my pc if I want to keep it, otherwise I just delete everything after a few days.

It depends on CD card capacity and resolution. With max supported 32GB CD card in 1080P recording time is 4h; in 720P it will record 8 h.

No, it will continue recording new 5 minute chunks until the card is full. When the card fills up it will start overwriting the oldest video. I haven't had to worry about it, I have a 32GB card in mine and the battery only lasts about an hour and 10 minutes, so it never fills the card. Also note that it only records five minute chunks in "vehicle" mode, in normal mode it will record one long video.

Sadly it doesn't, but i like how you think! You can record till the card's full and then you need to manually delete before you can record any more. Tell the guys from ION to include it in the next one!

With the free 4GB SD Card that comes with you can record 25 minutes in 5 minute increments.. I use an 8GB card and I get 40 minutes in 5 minute increments before it loops over itself. By looping over itself it will write over the oldest 5 minute increment and so on. The max SD card you can put in is 32GB which should give you 160 minutes, so you should be good for well over 2 hours. Be sure to buy a SD4/32GB Card. It must be an SD4. I use a Kingston SD4/8GB and will upgrade to a SD4/32GB soon.Correction: It should be SD4 or higher. I just bought a SDHC 32GB Class 10 and it works fine after a test drive.

I am having a problem with 32GB class 10 card, where it just stops recording. Also I was only getting a few days of use. Having to clear files every other day is not acceptable. So I switched to 16GB class 4 card and it seems to have worked. I have just started using it, but it is recording 6 days and counting... so I hope that fixed it. If not I am selling this one. I do enjoy having a camera in the car. This one does a good job except for this possible issue. However If I upgrade I will get one with front and rear camera.... you can get hit from the rear just as easy from the rear. However this was a low cost effective device worth trying.

I tried two 64gb cards. They both seemed to record but both gave error message saying they were too slow (although they were rated fast enough). I went back to a 32gb and all is well.

There's no built in memory, but with a 32gb card, it will record about 4 hours at the highest settings.
