Methods to directly view playback on a dash cam: 1. Remove the TF memory card from the dash cam, insert it into a card reader, and then connect it to a computer to read the contents; 2. Connect the dash cam to a computer using a USB cable, and the computer will recognize the dash cam as a mass storage device; 3. Playback can be done directly on the dash cam by pausing the recording, then pressing the MODE key to navigate to the recorded videos, and clicking OK to play. A dash cam is an instrument that records images, sounds, and other related information during vehicle travel. After installing a dash cam, it can record the entire driving process in video and audio, providing evidence for traffic accidents.
Actually, after driving for several years, I know best how to directly view playback on a dash cam. Generally, dash cams have a small screen. After turning it on, you'll notice a button labeled 'Play' or with a similar icon nearby—just press it directly. The screen will then display a menu. Use the directional keys to navigate and find the stored file list, select the video date and timestamp you want to watch, and press enter to confirm playback—that's all it takes. Note that the screen might be quite small, making details hard to see, so it's safer to operate while parked. I've also noticed a common issue: if the battery is low or the memory card is full, the device might freeze and fail to open playback. In such cases, you'll need to charge it or format the card first. It's also a good habit to regularly back up videos to a computer to avoid losing important footage. In short, this method is simple and reliable, saving you the hassle of connecting to a phone.
