overwrite NOT WORKING

Post by frustrated »

Hi Forum members and Amcrest TS - please help.

I cannot view playback from previous days. It works until the disk is full (approx 3 days), but then the SD card remains full with no previous days visible in PLAYBACK.

DETAILS:
  • IP841 camera
    Up to date firmware 6/29/2017
    Formated 64GB SD card via web interface
    General / Motion / Alarm schedule set to 24/7
    Record Mode - Auto
    Disk Full - OVERWRITE
    AutoMaintain - both boxes UNCHECKED
How to use the overwrite feature properly and keep as many days recording as possible?

Thanks in advance,
Frustrated :cry:

I've got several 32GB SD cards. I can only use one of them (Sandisk Ultra) reliably. I don't know if other people have had similar experiences. Have you tried formatting it through the app you're using?
