If I put both photos and videos on this unit, will I be able to set just one video to loop continuously (no photos showing)?

You can turn the slideshow off, so it only displays a single file. I might shop around a bit more to find a frame with a little better viewing angle. This is good for photos at a glance, but video won't look great because the viewing angle isn't the best.

you will require a video switch. Radio shack has switch that will switch up to 4 video to one

It overwrites the oldest files in the card automatically. So yes it does loop. Keep in mind that those files that are saved as events will not be overwritten , so too many events can cause quicker loops. Once a week SD formatting is recommended which can be done on the computer or on the blackvue itself (I trust the computer more but that's just me).

Mine has options in the menu for loop recording ("off", "3 min", "5 min", and "10 min"). I have it set to "off". When full it displays an icon that indicates that it's recording over the old footage, but when I go to play back the latest recording it isn't available. I pulled the card to check it on my laptop and

You can turn the camera on and off. It takes both video and stills. Do NOT buy this one, it's a piece of crap, it will break easily.The gears are CHEAP PLASTIC, where the shaft goes thru center of gear, the screw that tightens on the shaft will strip on first crash.

Let me know if i understand this rights (based on other answers as well) So if it's set to Random, when it turns on it always displays the first image and then proceeds randomly? If that's the case then this isn't a big deal.

I can't remember if there was two video inputs or one. If two yes, if only one then no, but you can add a video switch input, that makes one input into two, but you will be forced to switch to the one you want to watch.

You can set it to overwrite existing video files or set it to stop recording once the SD card is full

Yes it loops and depending on the drive size and number of camera's you run it can go about 7 days before rewriting over old video.

Hi Ronnie G, no it doesn't at this stage but apparently with the inclusion of synhcronised video they will be able to do it at some stage but the metrics are very difficult to work out, as for the synchronised video it is still in development. I am helping test a beta version at the moment but their updates seem to have come to a stand-still large problems so far.

I know it can loop video files, but I don't know about .jpg's. Worst case, the .jpg images could combined in movie software and saved as a video file.

I doubt it, only because it's unlikely you could have two instances of the program open at once. You could however build a relatively cheap second PC and record the second video feed through that one.

+1 for wanting this feature. it will be really really rare that i want to review old footage so why pay yearly when a tiny usb stick could hold days or weeks worth of footage? i also dont want my wifi upstream clogged with constant uploads of video from 2 or 3 of these cameras.

You can watch one camera. Push up or down once, till it stays on the camera you want. For two cameras, it shouldn't be on quad.

It records one video, as long as there is motion to record. Once it stops, it does not restart, so is not actually motion activated, which would continue to start and stop, each time there was motion to record.

Only has 4 video connection ... You need to run power to the camera ... A single balun unit witch is different then this one runs video, power and PNT but only runs one camera witch this one runs 4 cameras ......
