What Dashcam Viewer can do for you:
- Play your dashcam videos on the main screen while watching your vehicle’s speed, distance, position, bearing, and shock-sensor data update on graphs, data displays, and maps.
- “Geotag” points of interest along your route. Export these to a file. Or import them back in.
- Export your GPS tracks to common file formats such as comma-separated value (CSV), Google Earth KML, and GPS-exchange (GPX) for further data analysis.
- Export portions of videos to new clips
- Combine multiple videos into a single video
- Audio event detection to jump-to sudden noises
- And much more! Check out our Features, Video Tutorials, and Users Manual for more details.

For questions on Dashcam Viewer that are not answered in the FAQ or bulk licensing questions, contact me at: 
.
This software uses Qt and FFmpeg licensed under the LGPLv2.1 and its source can be downloaded here. The GPL version of FFmpeg, which if used in Dashcam Viewer, allows PiP movie exporting for dual-channel cameras, can be downloaded here (this feature is Mac-only for now). See the Dashcam Viewer Users Manual for how to install the GPL version into Dashcam Viewer.

Hi! I downloaded free version of the app for Windows, installed it, but I couldn’t open it. When I try to do so the dialog box comes up with a system failure message which says: The programme can’t be launched because there isn’t api-ms-win-crt-runtime-I1-1-0.dII on this computer. Could you please advise me what to do?
Victoria, you need a Windows update. Please see this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rj4ui1R1LIs
Hi, I have the VIOFO A129 Pro Duo. With the files copied on to the harddrive, the video (front 1440 30fps, back 1080 30fps) playback is choppy (stuttering) (to be fair, it does with Quicktime as well, but not when using VLC). Is this due to my 2015 MacBook Pro (i5, 8gb RAM) or the codec?
I would like to purchase the software, but this issue is stopping me from doing that.
Thank you
Steve, thanks for the question. Dashcam Viewer uses the same video backend as Quicktime Player so it’s no surprise that you’re seeing stuttering on your i5 MBP–especially when attempting to play two streams of 30 fps video while concurrently updating maps and widgets. You can try copying the videos to your local hard drive and playing them from there instead of the SD card reader. But in the end you’d be better served by a more powerful MBP.
Thank you for the reply John. I figured that was the issue, but was hopeful it wasn’t. 🙂
Hi, re Sony AS200V. Files load and display OK but there is no map, speed or route displayed. The data is there as the Sony Action Cam Movie Creator displays the route, speed etc….
I am doing something wrong or the Dashcam will not display it. Please note that my VSys M2F dual camera works perfectly.
Many Thanks
Additional info – Just noticed next to the filename there is a spanner with the message “Found fewer GPS points than expected for this movie. Attempting workaround.”
Chris, I am not familiar with the AS200V. Any chance you can send me a sample video? See FAQ question #1.
Hi John,
Small problem in zipping the files, too big. I have emailed you a link to download the files.

Hi,
Do you expect providing support of gps data for mai70pro any soon?
Thank you in advance!
I have not been able to crack the 70mai GPS data encoding. I have reached out to 70mai using their website’s Contact Us form, but they have not responded. So currently the Dashcam Viewer does not support the 70mai.
Hi John,
As a registered user of your Dashcam viewer software I have a quick question., I am about to purchase a VAVA VA-CD001 dashcam and would like to know if it is supported as I couldn’t see it specifically mentioned on the list included in the manual? It has been around since 2017 so assume it is but would just like to make sure.
All the best,
Robert T
Hi Robert, I’m not familiar with that model. Please see FAQ question #1 for how to send me samples.
I have a camera that uses the Hisilicon Hi3556v200.
Dashcam viewer opens the video but gps information is not displayed.
Does it work or not?
If it works I buy the software.

Hi Alexandre, I am not familiar with that chipset. I’ll examine your file…
the new version does not work with Apple latest OS. is there a fix for this?
Please see the solution here:

Hello from Europe,
I am on macOS Catalina. I get:
„Dashcam Viewer“ kann nicht geöffnet werden, da Apple darin nicht nach Schadsoftware suchen kann. Diese Software muss aktualisiert werden. Wende dich an den Entwickler, um weitere Informationen zu erhalten.
Safari hat diese Datei heute um 13:35 von filedn.com geladen.”, which translates to like:
“Dashcam Viewer can not be opened because Apple can not search for malware in it. This software needs to be updated. Contact the developer for more information.
Safari downloaded this file today at 13:35 from filedn.com. ”
Any ideas? 🙂
Cheers
Hi Iro, please see question #13 of the FAQ: https://dashcamviewer.com/faq/
Hiya John,

See screenshot at https://ibb.co/yqM1b2r
Cheers

Hi, I have a older Allucam VG-10Z. Korean company may be closed. Can you tell me if your software will work. I have not installed it.
Hi Ro, I am not familiar with that dashcam model. I recommend downloading Dashcam Viewer and giving it a try yourself. The trial version is free. Thanks!
I meant I haven’t install the Allucam dashcam yet. Their website is no longer viewable. I will temp wire it and record a bit and see if its viewable with your software. I’ll report my findings. Thank you
I don’t see the Viofo A119 (3) in your list of supported dash cams as of 11-24-19 so if I get the paid of this . will it still work?
Viofo A119 should work (it’s on the list). You can always download the free version and try before you buy.
As an original viofo a119 owner, I can confirm the software works wonderfully 🙂
Thanks.
