Neuros MPEG4 Recorder
Was wondering if anyone owns or has used one of these little gadgets. Have a friend who is thinking about buying one for his microlight, so I thought
I'd ask here and see if anyone had any experience with 'em.

I've been using a bullet camera and camcorder for a while and will probably get the Neuos soon as well. I've got an ally box to protect
the camcorder but its a bit bulky. The big plus of my Sony camcorder is the LANC port so I can use a handy remote button to start/pause/stop the
recording.
I like the idea of the Neuros recording when the bullet camera is switch on as I've got a rechargeable lith Ion battery pack with a switch on
it. So that could act as my remote switch!
Theres a much better demo clip on Fastfilms web site as they sell it. Thats also where I buy a lot of my mounts and accessories.

At the moment the auto record only works once, Nueros are currently working on a fix.
You also have to take it out of standby with the remote after turning the power on.
This frustrates me as my plan was to have 2 dash switches, one to turn mine on and one to turn on the camera when I want to record.
There is a way round this that's been developed by a couple of guys on the
support forum , but I'm not sure when it will be available.

Use a camcorder to set it up, then don't move it.

Not used one, but read the specs a while back, they were poor resolution and limited (15 i think) fps.
As somebody pointed out on a new thread earlier today, check what your digital camera can do as you can get good results from them. OK the one in the
example was a 7MP one capturing at VGA 30fps (or is capable of) but you never know till you try.
