Does it record video continiously or skips some frames (1-2 seconds) between video loop segments?

Only viewed videos once and didn't see any noticeable gap. But I wasn't paying much attention to that. I was more concerned with checking quality of video. While I like the camera, I suggest you look at other models. As stated in my review, it bugs me that the correct date can't be set.

There is a small skip between loops but its barely noticable. I use it for my daily commute and couldn't think of a better quailty camera for this price. I have had more expensive ones that were half as good. Hopefully this helps answer your question. You can even check out the quality of the camera on my youtube channel. My channel name is mydashcam6 Heres the link to it. the newer videos were made with this camera. www.youtube.com/user/mydashcam6

You need to play with the settings for video. It seems like you have the lapse feature on, which records in chunks as small as 1 minute; you can disable that and record without interruptions. The screen will automatically disable after 3 minutes of recording.

Yes. I have my system set to motion detection so that it doesn't record all the time. Be sure to check the recordings periodically so that the memory/hard drive doesn't fill up too quickly.

The issue is the software Operating system is limited to 2 Gigs per recording session. If you are recording a long video such as a child's play then that's a problem. if stop recording and start another recording session you will be able to fill your card with video. I've rarely recorded continuously for 8 minutes so it's not a problem for me. Also if you reduce the resolution to something less than HD such as VGA you will quadruple your recording minute. Remember if you record a VGA you still have better resloution than DVD.

I'm not sure about that. I couldn't find a setting for that, just make sure the "Loop Recording" is not set to "Off". Other than that I don't know what the issue might be, sorry.

When you hit record the first time, it goes into flashing pause mode. Then you hit record again and it records. After that it stays recording until you hit stop. That's not a defective, that just shows you certain settings on the screen before you hit record the second time. Mine has been working great.

No, it skips right over the videos like they're not even there. There is no way for it to display a photo, then a video, then some photos, then another video, etc, although that would be a great feature and if you know of a photo frame that does that let me know because I will buy that.

Yes it records in a loop mode-the oldest file in the memory card is overwritten.

May be the setting, but I know it should record 5 minutes segment in each file. This way it is easy to find the file. You also might need to buy a 32GB memory card because I first used a 64GB card. It didn't work and I bought a 32GB card, it works fine until now. I hope it will help you.

I haven't messed with the software that comes with it, but I recommend checking out iSpy. Free, and works very well with these camera handling motion detection and recording.

There are different settings. I have mine set on 90 seconds, the maximum. After the 90 seconds if there is still motion another 90 seconds is recorded. It takes a minimal video program to splice them all together if need be.

yes it can record continuous and it does record over the old video at a certain point, you can also download a certain recorded video to usb drive that way you can save it for future files

I tried a 64G one, Up from the original 32G and let it record consistently for two days and it still loops at about 6Hrs or 25G worth of video/audio. I re-formatted the card and will test again but am already disappointed that it will not allow a 64G from what it has already done.

When you set the motion mode in the menu it is very sensitive to any motion, whether it is a movement of the car/camera or just something passing in front of it. As long as it has power it will record approximately 1 minute segments every time it detects motion.

HiOur units record continuously but in segments, until SD card is full the loops to record over what was previously recorded. Thank you Darren Brock

No. What it does is, it records in 30 minute increments. There is no interfearance in the video. It's a very nice camera, you won't regret it. It's my professional opinion.

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.
