Got mine today as well. You will also see I have been playing with a video plugin for the main site (the forum can use YouTube video) so if you have anything worth putting on the main site then let me know.

Yup, downloaded Drivers, instralled, still no joy.
Also cam doesnt want to play ball ... press the button, nothing happens ... format SD Card, set time .. 0 byte files on the card. then after.
left it on charge for 4 hours, followed teh instructions and the video ... still no joy .. somtimes it works for 10 seconds, then hangs, one light just stays on and I have to turn the cam off to reset it.

Just opened a support ticket with them and boxed back up the cam :( pity, was looking forward to playing with it tomorrow

must be a faulty one cus mine seemed to work ok today ive not tryed using any drivers or as a webcam cus thats not what i want it for.

i put it in the windscreen & pressed record & went on a 40 min drive come back & pluged into pc & it had recorded 8 vid files like it should have done the only bit ive not worked out yet is im sure on the website it said it has audio but there is nothing in instruction about that & it did not record any audio but not sure if thats just for when using it as a webcam (i would rather not have audio for what im using it for anyway)

hope you get yours sorted as i think they are ok for £20

Mine has audio ok, when in webcam mode it can be disabled but in normal mode it seems to always be there.
