About this deal

A complicating factor is that Youtube use a different form of compression for 2,7 and 4K, it gives (we think) a better final viewing quality than with Full HD video uploads. The global dash-cam market was valued at USD 2.8 billion in 2019, so it’s big business, with 36.1 million units sold in that year alone.

With 170° wide angle and dual Sony Starvis sensors delivering 1080p at 30 fps, the MT1 delivers amazing video quality to protect in the event of an accident. The Remote Control provides the ability to control the (local) WiFi connection between the MT1 and network compatible device such as a smart phone while also allowing user or manual intervention of video recording for emergency purposes.

Founded in 2011, VIOFO identifies itself as one of the top manufacturers of dashcam systems featuring quality high resolution systems with unique designs and premium functionality. Lighting levels are good and obviously facilitated by the WDR feature when enabled and as may be adjusted through the plus/minus EV settings, something that can make a big difference depending on the direction of travel and respective camera views. Some motorcyclists utilize a single or dual channel (or other multi-channel configurations) for singular use as a road user/traffic safety tool, enabling the rider to have stored video evidence in the event of an incident or accident; whereas others utilize these systems for concurrent applications – traffic monitoring, travelogue use, etc., for even more return on the investment. The good news is that after speaking with Viofo UK and the Product Manager in China, it looks likely that a firmware update will be deployed that requires the WiFi button to be pressed and held before it activates, which should solve the problem.

And all of them will need to be installed on the machines residing in the home fleet garage, activities that are all part of the approach to minimize the cabin-fever aspect of life; which virtually all of us are experiencing to various degrees in our COVID-19 world; hang in there. The remote control is fine, but the WiFi and manual record buttons are close together and not that easy to index with a gloved hand, so it’s possible to accidentally press the WiFi connection button.In working through all the MT1 features during bench testing and lots of subsequent road use, one feature seems to be performing poorly (if at all), while another, both identified in the User Manual seems to be missing completely. But whether these features haven’t (yet) been enabled or just don’t work for some reason isn’t known – more information is provided below. Storage Media Access – open the pressure-fitted cover and use a fingernail or thin non-metallic object to push in the storage card slightly, activating the spring-loaded release that pops the card out enough for it to be grasped by its beveled edge and removed. The small USB-A interface SD-media reader provided in the kit is perfect for holding/securing the media. It's worth being aware of course that your own footage can be used against you, and deleting it could be a serious offence if confronted by the police. If one is familiar with single or dual channel point-of-view (PoV) action camera systems, then the MT1 will be familiar. But if this is a first foray into mounting a system such as this on a motorcycle, or any other vehicle, then it’s good to understand the ‘what’, ‘how’, ‘why’ and ‘when’ of it all; so we’ll start first with a component run-through… Some cameras can be mounted in multiple positions, giving you added flexibility and the ability to see which position works best for you. How long can motorcycle cameras record?
