1080P 2.7" HD TFT Car Dash Camera Video Register Recorder DVR Cam Night Vision

This is what I got from Santa.

First time I have watched back videos on the cam and noticed how jerky it is, is there any settings I can adjust?

Make sure the mount is steady and that the camera isn't zoomed in. That's all I can think of at the moment. Santa got me a dashcam (Roadhawk DC-2) and I've just bought an E-Prance 1080p camera for the back window. £40 off Amazon.

Not as good as the Roadhawk obviously but it is fine just for facing backwards.

It's a nice bit of kit but having viewed back the video it's jerky. Trying to upload a video for all to see.

Night vision needs to sorted not sure if there are setting but it does get very dark on camera and lights do glare on the screen.

Video attached,

I tried to hard wire the cam today and think I may have blown something internal GRRRR, the power light lights up but nothing on the screen......

Just watched the footage. It only lasted 1 second though so maybe hasn't uploaded properly. From what I could see, the picture quality was somewhat pixelated and way off HD quality. Try the settings menu to ensure it isn't on a lower quality setting.

I've uploaded some videos to YouTube which I have posted topics about in the new dashcam forum area. That shows the 1080p footage from the Roadhawk DC-2 and shows what you should expect with 1080p.

I've yet to get daylight footage with the budget camera I bought for the back window.

Only a second lol took me ages to make it smaller didn't know I made it that small. It was on 720 for a bit but changed it to the next one up. I'll have a look when I get a new one as I seem to have blown this one up lol. Some how.
