Background video recording

Post by checkbuzz »

I'm using Petrolhead Edition for android.
I don't seem to be able to enable background video recording whilst using the timer function.
There is no record-auto button as per your documentation.

That button has been removed as I didn't get it working reliably for Android. Need to revisit that item...

Really? That's a pretty standard feature that's been available on other android lap timers for years...
It looks like I've wasted my time and money on another over-hyped product.

Google Play Quote "The main differences compared to Rookie Edition are video recording in parallel to data recordings as well as full on device video overlaying" pretty deceptive advertising considering the fact you can't actually use the laptimer function and record video at the same time.

I (like most people) cannot do without this functionality. How do I get a refund?

You probably get it wrong. You just need to stay in video view, this is the mode LapTimer records video and data in parallel. And please don't get rude here on the forum.
