I'm using CarDV Player version 5.5.0.0 and the video is upside down. Is there a fix for this? The .mov files play correctly with Quick Time Player.

I found the answer by using "Registrator Viewer" by Vadikus, otherwise known as Datakam. Google "car dvr player software". Works perfectly with windows 7 and uses Open Street Map for the Mapping and pinpointing where you are. It may show up as a potentially dangerous programme in MacAfee. But download to a safe sd card and scan. I downloaded from Foxoffer blog etc, etc . As I cannot add links here. Selected their Car DVR tab selected their option "About VF960S (GS900) Car DVR player software" and this is the same viewer as I have used, not sure about the other on google but looks the same. Copy the Datakam player app to the SD card in your camera in the player folder and when you click on it will search for all files on the SD card in your camera and play them as you want. Includes Map, Speed, compass and G Forces.

Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be a very helpful answer here. There's a suggestion that mino has "connection problems", which may or may not include "ultra". I'm not sure if or why there would be any difference if the software is the same. My general understanding from searching the web on this topic is that at least the 2d generation flips *should* work normally with late version macs (hardware & OS), but that their movie editing functions are not mac compatible. A suggestion above is that iMovie might render that less significant.

I too am having the same issue. When I playback the videos in large or fullscreen mode, it's jerky. In small mode, it's fine. I can't get Flip to respond to my email and can't get through on the phone, so I might be returning this one.

Why is one camera upside down and one upside right in the photo? Has the seller confirmed is this can be used with a GproHD and Gopro2? I do not have two of the same cameras. Thanks

Anyone have any issues with .avi files that are over 1gb? I can fast forward through it, but when I try to play it normally, it cuts at about the 1hr 50minute mark.Thoughts?

Same problem i have faced... the higher resolution video is jerky (stutters) while being played on a very fast computer. I tried copying it to my hard drive so that SD-Memory card reading lag time is been reduced, but to no benefit.

I am not having this issue. You might not have the codec downloaded to your machine. Do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed? Update QuickTime and try playing it with the QuickTime player.

I've played unencrypted MP4 files with no issue. However, I do not have any DivX files so couldn't answer related to that file format.

Hi. There are various MP4 file formats. If our unit does not read or recognize the file you would like to play, we recommend converting or downloading file as a AVI, DVIX or M4V.

I haven't used MM as I'm a Linux guy but I had the same problem: mplayer was no audio, vlc would sometimes play them, sometimes would hang, sometimes with repeating audio and Parole was fine. But the root of the problem is the Quicktime format MOV files. It's a hack, but there's a way to put the ROAM2 firmware on the ROAM (basically rename the ROAM2 firmware filename). They now use MP4. As a bonus you get 60fps and a LOT of options. It's like having a ROAM2 without the lock switch basically.

I had to hunt around on the web because at first I got no audio when playing it on my Macbook. I found out you need to get the free download of Perian so that it will playback in quicktime.

Okay guys I got the player yesterday and had the same problem so I did some massive googling for 2 hours and found the solution:Press Display, and then use the Up and Down arrows to scroll through the different display options. When you see the timestamp go off, just let it sit there for like 4 seconds and the display will go off.I had to do this once for divx videos, and once for dvd videos and have not had a problem since.

I simply renamed my xvid movie which usually has a .avi file extension to a .mpg file extension. Low and behold, the blu-ray player played it just fine with no conversion necessary. Surprise! (rolls eyes...)

Use the bracket that came with the camera. Mount camera and bracket upside down. Go to the LIVE VIDEO settings and check both the FLIP and MIRROR boxes. The image will display as though the camera is right side up.

I did not try .iso files, however it has had no problem playing .mov,avi,MP4,mkv or divx files. For the price the unit works really nice.

No. It's a good video file player and my friend loves it. You might need to search for a new firmware update on the net to make it play MKV tho as it has difficulty out of the box doing that. Hope that helps you.

Hi Shelley,I sent you a post in another discussion. It seems the Netflix movies are giving me grief!! I'm trying to watch Michael Clayton, and my player says its incompatible. I'm having a tough time installing the firmware update as well... the machine can't seem to locate the dang file on my jump drive. Oh well, maybe the disc is bad.Cheers!
