The reason why Vantrue dash cam cannot record and save videos longer than one hour is due to the limitations of the memory card format. Most dash cams use memory cards formatted with FAT32, which can only support a maximum file size of 4GB. Videos longer than half an hour often exceed this size limit, preventing the dash cam from saving them as a single file.
We only recommend Vantrue, Samsung Endurance and Sandisk High Endurance/Max Endurance Card. To extend the life of your card, we advise to format your SD card every 3-4 weeks for regular everyday users and 2-3 weeks for heavy users to free up space on your memory card for new recordings.
Note: Samsung EVO Plus and PRO Plus cards are NOT recommended for use with Vantrue dash cam.
1. Format the SD card and update the dash cam to the latest firmware version.
2. Try a new recommended card.
3. If you have tried the above steps and the issue hasn't been resolved, please contact our support team via support@vantrue.net.
1. Make sure you use the orignal rear cable. please kindly note that the rear cable of different dash cam won't be compatible with each other.
2. Check if the rear cable connection is securely plugged in.
3. Rotate the rear camera to see if it works well. if no, please contact us via support@vantrue.net.
1. Restart the dash cam and the Vantrue app.
