what type of file is the video recorded as?

The f210 records 2 related files every 3 or 5 minutes continuously. One is the video file in .MOV QuickTime format. The other is a GPS data file in .NMEA format.

it is long time I have not paid attention to the file type , but it is view able by any window's Media player (very nice and clear , very good quality). and this is the least important feature of this camera . if you think to get one .. I strongly recommend it . its GPS feature (you need its SUPER CAR software which is included) is the best tracking and logging tool . Good luck

you can record between 8-12 hours (depending the light , dark or day light) you think you need more than 8 hours on a 32 GIG SD card ?? I have tested at least 10 different dash cams the ones with more capacity have BAD quality

Yes - the video is standard MP4 format which can be viewed by Quicktime or other apps like VLC.

The recording is saved on the micro SD card which is in mounted in main front camera, so you will not have the video.

No, I don't think so. To save a specific video you need to copy it to an external USB drive .

I am not sure about the video format. I bought this for a Christmas present. It has already quit working.

i am no computer, or camera "wiz" -- to tell you the truth, i am uncertain what format the camera uses, but, when i downloaded the few video's i took, my computer "processed" them to video player.

Looks like it uses h.264 which is a quicktime format. Do you have quicktime installed? I'm a mac user and never use AVI's so I hope I'm correct in this assumption.

My geeyacam files are AVI video clip files. They open with MS Media Player. I am not aware of the file type specified in this question.

It's not live. It gets recorded onto the memory card then you transfer it to your computer.

None, you need an SD card, and however big your SD card is is the amount of video.

Hi Philip, the videos are created in market standard mpeg4 format, as you supposed.

There are a couple of popular 3rd party software platforms that can be used for recording video. Blue Iris and Ispy come to mind. Disk utilization varies depending on the frames per second you require. 7 meg per minute would probably be the max.

The videos are saved as MP4 files and can be edited with any software that supports the use of that type of file. I posted one directly to YouTube, after doing just a little editing using Windows Movie Maker. Hope this answer helps you out. Bob Plyler Kodiak Alaska

Does the recorded video transfer onto the computer in one file? I have a spy camera that breaks the video into 7 minute files. I need something (does not need to be a spy camera) that has a time stamp and keeps the recording in one continuous file. Will this camera do this? If it doesn't any suggestions on another camera to consider?

The file format of the recorded material is probably incorrect. Double check what the file extension is on your digital file and see if you can convert it to a compatible file type.

Not sure, I have never used it for recording. It does appear to be HD video feed onto the screen I view it from.

Not sure I understand the question. I have no issues with the video it records. The files are AVI type files and all I do is copy them from the SD card to the computer, and play them using Windows Media Player. Have not had to convert the files to any other type of video file type.
