TeslaCamViewer V 0.4.1 : Still hung

When I open it, it hangs on scans of system. No user feedback.

same for me.

Same for me as well. Are there accompanying files needed for Windows 10? I ran the executable in compatibility mode and as administrator and still hung.

Did some debugging, the hanging issue for me, is related to the naming of the files. The regex in TeslaCamFile is ([0-9]{4}-[0-9]{2}-[0-9]{2}_[0-9]{2}-[0-9]{2})-([a-z_]*).mp4, however my files on my computer also displays second, thereby we are lacking a [0-9]{2}-segment in the regex.

This might be related to different locations? Considering the display dateformat, I assume the author is American? I myself am from Europe.

that and FileFormat for TeslaCamDate needs to have -ss for seconds

I'm in the US and it still hangs for me as well

I have it working with an optional in the regex that includes the seconds in the format + the format has to be changed for tryparseexact to match the seconds.

I think you are correct. An example date folder in my (Dutch) car is "2019-06-18_07-59-44". An example filename is "2019-06-17_18-40-35-left_repeater". TeslaCamViewer can't "see" the directories nor the files.

It would also be nice to be able to specify the TeslaCam base folder.

Is that a code change you can recommend? maybe make a pull request?

Is there some way to specify the load directory so it doesn't have to search?

Jul 10 '19 22:07 SmartCarrion

Potentially useful app but fails to leave the starting block due to a pointless search! Please just allow the path to be selected and saved, that's all it needs... it never changes as the USB pen always has the same drive letter.

Same for me. I'll just post here instead of opening a separate issue:

I cannot get TeslaCamViewer to work. On startup it just hangs.

I then disabled "EnableAutoSearch" in the config file hoping I could just point to the correct directory after starting the program, but it doesn't look like that is possible.

Clicking "Search for TeslaCam drive" just hangs forever. I have lots of disks with gazillions of files. I have also moved the TeslaCam files to another drive so I can put the USB drive back in the car immediately.

Would it be possible to just have a "Open directory ..." function? I'm not very well versed in C# unfortunately so I don't see right now what would need to be added, and how to add it myself.

Turns out the problem is actually the extra "seconds" in the file name, I did a fork and a quick fix here: https://github.com/nlmunro/TeslaCamViewer and it has a build in TeslaCamViewer-4.2.EU.zip

There is a cleaner fix here: https://github.com/mattw01/TeslaCamViewer/pull/11 but no built version as far as I can see.

I can't get either to work. Tried the 0.4.1 and it just hangs, tried @nlmunro's 4.2.EU and it gets a bit closer to loading (not greyed out) but nothing displayed. Can see the files absolutely fine on the SSD plugged in to Win 10. Any chance of an option to just specify a folder to browse?

I actually gave up and started using this Android app as I can check the videos in the car using my phone (with a suitable USB adaptor): https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.snailboat.teslacamreviewer

Thanks - for some reason my SSD isn't wanting to work with my phone just now, yet it did a month or so ago. Not sure what the reason is :(
