Hello people,

After developing a piece of simple Dashcam software Dashcam video merge program. I had a thought.

Gee, wouldn't it be great if I could automatically group contiguous files, so that the output would be "A Trip from Point A to Point B"

Dummy, what a rabbit hole I went down.

So each file is named like this ch0_20220918025848_20220918030347.mp4

Channel, Start time including year month day hour minute second, and End time including the same info.​

Well, like an insane person I split out each hour minute second bit of info into an array in python, and exported into excel to have a look.

On a positive note, I can confirm that the time stamps DO align with the duration of the video file.

But the gaps between are another matter. If you have a look at this excel file (if you're crazy too), you will see what I mean.

Recording Time and Discrepancies.xls

I have worked out two things.

The early files behave the best with consistent gaps of around 0-1 seonds, but after about 76 five minute video are recorded this seems to blow out to 3-11 seconds

By about 230 five minute video files, this DVR really losses it's sh!t

For example:

ch0_20220917103142_20220917103642.mp4	ch0	2022	9	17	10	31	42	2022	9	17	10	36	42	0:05:00	1:37:07

7​

-23​

ch0_20220917103238_20220917103736.mp4	ch0	2022	9	17	10	32	38	2022	9	17	10	37	36	0:04:58	###########

-4​

-4​

Yes, the second file finished after the previous, and they are both about 5 minutes long, but the second started 4 minutes and 4 seconds before the previous one finished. OMG.. Rabbit hole

THOUGHTS

A day of five minutes videos would be 288 files.

But my maximum for a daily long distance trip is usually 14 hours, which is 168 files.

I can't increase the five minute length as the options are 1,3,5.

So the only thing I can think of is testing a faster micro SD Card.

The one I am using is Sandisk High Endurance microSDXC Card, SQQNR 128G, UHS-I, C10, U3, V30, 100MB/s R, 40MB/s W, SD adaptor, 2Y, White (SDSQQNR-128G-G)

And that should be perfect for it.

Any thoughts?
[FYT Android Head Units] mastrv:
Try dashcam viewer to see how/if it handles your files. Not sure if it's compatible with the unit you're using:

Dashcam Viewer | Unleash Your Dashcam’s Full Potential

Dashcam Viewer is powerful, state-of-the-art software with unique and functional features that will unleash your dashcam’s full potential.

dashcamviewer.com

There's a free version that works with 2 videos instead of the 600 or 1200 handled by paid versions.

From what I remember, the developer is quite responsive and adds new devices often.
[FYT Android Head Units] mjcummins:
Tried it.

Flashy, but doesn't have more functionality I could use than what I developed in 3 days in my spare time.

I am not going to spend $55 to be able to do what my python code does already.

T'eyes DVR does not have any GPS tracking or other info.

And, if you want to view your dashcam files, use VLC.. It can play all of them for free, not just two.

You have convinced me to keep developing it though. GUI version coming for free in three months.
[FYT Android Head Units] surfer63:
Sorry: long answer.

I have seen this before on my own dashcam. When you switch of contact, it might very well be that your sd-card is not correctly unmounted. Maybe it was writing the video to sd-card when you switched off the car and thereby "broke" the file and thereby the file system. This causes errors on your SD-card. I have learned to "checkdisk" (to use the windows equivalent) my SD-card once a week.

You might think that if you set your car to deep-sleep, not to choose 30 seconds or so, but take a longer period to make sure your dashcam can still finish writing. This will not work as your dascam will keep recording (and possibly writing) as long as it gets power, no matter whether you are in the garage or not. So this corruption will still happen if it is caught on the wrong moment when writing to sd-card.

Writing "around" these errors takes time. It might restarting writing to be able to save a good file.

Note also that these SD-cards are FAT32. In earlier days we needed to "defragment" hard disks. NTFS, HFS+, EXT2/3/4 and other modern systems do that automatically. FAT32 doesn't. Make sure your SD-card doesn't get too full.

Or better: use two SD-cards. That's what I did. Take one out after a trip and put another in. Check your taken out sd-card, rip it, correct it, etcetera.

Speed of your SD-card: It doesn't have to be the highest speed for video. Read some photo/video sites. The highest quality 4K videos do need up to 100Mbits. Your 1920x1080 or 1280-x720 dashcam are at much lower Mbits/second (check with ffprobe or ffmpeg -i "file")

Super high speed SD-cards are for burst-mode photography at 10-30 images per second, each 10-30 MB big (still using memory to save to and then write to sd-card; one of my other hobbies).

Secondly: It might also be that the CPU has trouble keeping up with the video capture and immediate encoding of the mp4. Those "cheap as possible" Chinese dashcams only have the lowest spec CPU's inside.
[FYT Android Head Units] mjcummins:
All good ideas as usual, I'll implement as soon as i can.

Because of mastrv's suggestion I checked the MP4 output of both the T'eyes DVR and the CamRec rearview camera.

This is going to shock you. Neither file from either software has any embedded data like GPS in it. No, separate GPS.

Though the CamRec software does put a GPS position overlay on the recording. (Feels like hard-coded subtitles)

I wonder if there is a lightweight GPS logging app I could put on the Head Unit. Could be a future improvement to my video merging app.
[FYT Android Head Units] surfer63:
Sorry, but I am not shocked. I knew this already for many years, already since the Sofia 3GR when Joying and a few others started selling FYT units with accompanying dashcams. T'eyes did not even exist yet.

That's why idroid at that time (2016?) created a raspberry pi solution in combination with the FYT unit, which could handle two cameras and would write GPS info as well. And it had a better mechanism to write to sd-card to prevent these SD-card corruption (not 100%, but much better).

Or one could simply buy a not so cheap external dashcam that does have builtin gps and builtin colision detection.

That's also why I wrote "I have seen this before on my own dashcam". I don't use the FYT or alike dashcams anymore. They are cheap, but you get what you pay for.

Edit: it is not that they are all bad, but they are not so good. There are several light-weight GPS trackers, but at that time I used OsmAnd for navigation which can automatically track. And used exiftool to geotag them (by the way: did you ever heard of jExifToolGUI? ;))
[FYT Android Head Units] 03hdfatboy:
Sounds like something I'd do as far as trying to set it up for "video trip bundles" That Is a great feature to have. I Have a knockoff ATOTO dashcam that works fantastic for the $12 I paid for it with the app that came with it but just wish itI would use the factory dashcam app. Using a 64Gb Samsung Micro Sd
[FYT Android Head Units] mjcummins:
Yeah, it's definately something I will add, but I'll have to add a user selectable "fudge" factor to link files.

e.g. Dashcam_Stitcher E 100 25

E - drive where micro SD is

100 - The speed up factor for final file

25 - The overlap/gap in seconds allowed to work out contiguous or not. Default of 10 would cover most of my anomalies.

Just working out an elegant (and readable) piece of code (algorithm) will be the trouble.

I think I've found my part time hobby while summer hits hard in the whitsundays.
[FYT Android Head Units] surfer63:
Just thinking, maybe wrong. Assuming that there are hours or maybe even days between one trip and the next.

You are already name-sorting(=date-sorting) your mp4s. Wouldn't it be easier not to search for the small differences between files (like 10-25 seconds), but simply only for the big difference (>=1 hour?) between one file and the next?

And even in that case: If you drive one of your 14 hours drives (man, that's long) with two or more 30 minutes or longer stops in between, and you might end up with 3 video files, you can easily concat those again with ffmpeg.
[FYT Android Head Units] 03hdfatboy:
Sounds like youre on to something good, Keep us posted please.

When I get on to a "something that bugs me" project like that it drives my betterhalf crazy. I'll stay obsessed with it until I figure it out. LOL
[FYT Android Head Units] 03hdfatboy:
My dashcam stays on when the car is shut off and will detect and save collision detection while car is parked. So don't think thats the issue I would have, BUT I totally agree on the slow CPU comment. That is probably what is causing the issue mjcummins is having. mjcummins have you tried having it seperate the "trip" mp4's in a for example (30min ea) Folder to see if it helps prevent this lag? May not help but it's a thought.
[FYT Android Head Units] mjcummins:
Longer file size isn't an option. 5 minutes is maximum in my software. Yeah, good idea; I had it too
[FYT Android Head Units] 03hdfatboy:
I realized that, I was talking about putting the 5 min mp4's in a seperate folder every 30 min.

If your issue is caused by CPU lag you might want to make the files 3min not 5.
[FYT Android Head Units] mjcummins:
Ah, I will investigate the potential of that idea.

Does anybody know what to do in order to block software instalation after a hard reset? I do not want touch Flo 3d or any other third party program installed,...I just want a "pure" wm6.1
[Touch HD General] tnyynt:
While you can still always disable Manila, you can soft reset right before it starts to customize and skip it.
[Touch HD General] emariu:
I remember from my ex HTC Kaiser that it used to be a key combination to press in order to avoid program customization after a hardreset...do not know if it works by trying to softreset in that moment

[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] double b26:
I have a wifi only tab 4 10" with custom recovery and rom that's bootlooping. Was running lineage os. Seemed stable for a long time, but now flashes the Samsung logo boot screen, a few messages show up in the upper left corner real fast (not se android enforcing)(see pic), then it powers off and repeats. No button combos will let me into recovery. Only flashes the screen and errors for a split second, between power cycling off and back on, nonstop, until the battery drains

Any solutions? It's been so long since i rooted this thing, idk even know where to start.
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] html6405:
Download the stock ROM with frija ( you can find it on xda ) and flash it via Odin,

if the device starts again, you can start from zero and flash TWRP, LineageOS, ...

If it's still dead, it maybe is an hadware fault because of an broken eMMC.
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] double b26:
Thanks.

I figured I'd have to dust off Odin. Hopefully I still have the rooting resources in the archives so I don't have to actually start from square 1

It's been bricked for about a year now, setting in the old-tech drawer. I can't remember if I was messing with something and broke it, or if it took a crap all by itself. In the back of my mind, I wanna say it was my own tinkering that was the cause, but idk.

Fingers crossed it's not the emmc. Of course, it's pretty old and slow, and the battery is about shot. Wouldn't be a huge loss if it's toast.

Guess I'll find out soon enough

Thanks again 👍

I bought a Hercules DJ Control Mix which offers Bluetooth Input for the Algoriddim "DJay" App. It requires to be paired from within the App which works fine from my other Smartphone (S10, Samsung OneUI 4.1) but does not work from my A5 2017 with the latest Lineage OS 18.1 Nightly Release (lineage-18.1-20220922-nightly-a5y17lte) installed.

How would one debug this Problem?
[Nokia G10 / G20 / G21] JohnnyEngel:
Hello.

This is my first time using a smartphone, and I'm new to IT as well, so forgive me for being dumb.

I recently got a Nokia G20 (Model number: TA-1336). It has Android 12.

Whenever I "shake" the phone, or just move it a little, the screen turns on. I believe it has something to do with motion sensing, but I couldn't find anything in the settings to turn this feature off.

Please help me.

On another note, is it possible to get rid of the google search bar at the bottom of the home screen? Without disabling the Google app, if possible.

Thanks very much in advance.

If this has been asked before, I'm very sorry for causing trouble.
[Nokia G10 / G20 / G21] JohnnyEngel:
Thank you very much WilliamMike, your advice fixed the first one!

The search bar, however, I still can't remove. The internet says to either install some NovaLauncher (which I'd prefer not to) or disable the Google app (this could break some features I assume).

Sorry for taking up your time, I appreciate your help!

Hi, I sold a very old phone earlier and the person sent me this video saying the phone is broken and you have to double press things.

Am I right in thinking this is a setting and can be easily fixed? It looks to be software rather than hardware. Their son is very upset so I'd like to fix it asap! If possible, otherwise a refund obviously.

It's a Samsung Galaxy S3 running Cyanogenmod. Thanks :)

Edit: Fixed by holding down both the volume buttons for 3 seconds!
[General Topics] blackhawk:
Easiest way would be to a factory reset since it's going to a new user. Make sure you delete the Google and Samsung accounts first then do the reset in settings not the boot menu if possible.
[General Topics] blizeH:
Thanks, it has already been reset though and it was like this from the start? It's very strange, not sure how to disable it. (also doesn't help that I don't have access to the phone!)
[General Topics] xtcislove:
Why not let them do a simple factory reset?
[General Topics] blizeH:
Update: fixed! I think holding down both volume buttons for 3 seconds seemed to work :)
[General Topics] blackhawk:
You already did a factory reset and it persisted.

So you did a hard reboot and that temporarily at least did the trick?
[General Topics] blizeH:
Thanks, like I said it's tricky because I don't have access to the phone, but either way they are happy with it now :) But yup - it was from a full reset and it was there, unless they turned it on by accident.

That phase requires a ton of DRAM. When building 19.1, this phase might consume as much as 12GB DRAM.

It's suggested to have 16GB DRAM. If you have less, make sure your swap partition is around 16GB.

You can also try to adapt these hacks to make it build with less DRAM.

Hey!

Is it worth getting a used 20X 5G for 350€? Am kinda on the fence as it is an older phone, which is running on an older Android version. I used the 20X years ago and I loved it, but since time passed I'm not so sure. Tell me your thoughts!

If it does what you need then I would say yes. I use my phone all day every day for music, work etc. so I am happy to pay whatever to get a device that works just as I want. It's a tool and any tradesman will tell you that cheap tools don't make sense.

I just sold a 20x with box and warranty for £350 and replaced it with a 20x 5g. Honestly, the 20x did everything I needed and had better battery life and speakers. But I felt like a change and typing for me on smaller phones is such a hassle, I always go back to the 20x size. I've owned 4 now.

(your english is perfect, no need to be sorry!)

step 1. put it in download mode (hold power, volume down, and home until the warning screen appears, then let go and click volume up)

step 2. connect it to PC

step 3. launch odin

step 4. download twrp and choose the twrp file in the AP slot and flash

after flashing, it will reboot and you can put it in recovery mode (hold power, volume up, and home until the boot screen with the phone's name appears, then let go of power but keep holding the other 2 until it boots into twrp)

hope this helped!
