808 Cam Users, Setting the Time and Date How To
I see some vids from fellow 808 users with the wrong time and date stamp. Last night I learned how to fix this. Simply create a text file called tag.txt with notepad, create the following entries, edit the time and date, and drag it onto the root of your micro SD card. Put a space at the end of each line before hitting return also.
[date] 2012/01/27 11:50:00 And that's it, you'll be all set.

For example: if your camera shows up as say F:/, then click on that, and when it opens, that's the root of the card.

Hmmmm, different version of the camera maybe? Do you have WIndows set to show hidden files and folders?

Well, apparently some of the cams want a different file name. Try time.txt, and make sure it saves as a .txt file and try that. Also, I had my cam plugged in and saved it straight to the camera itself.

Yep, that should have done it. Try this, pull all your videos off the camera first so you don't lose them. Then when you plug it in, right click the drive letter associated with your camera and choose format, and click OK. This will wipe the memory card (and any files the camera creates on the card, like the default time setting file), then try it again. That should work.

You ever get yours working Robert? I just got my cam yesterday and wasted an hour of my life trying to get the damn time/date stamp correct I have tried it 15000 different ways and just can't seem to get it to work.
But, what do you expect for $12 bucks |
