    What to do if SD card is not letting me view my files on Kenwood DRV-A100 Dash Cameras?

      Mary GreenAug 22, 2025
      If your SD card files aren't viewable, try different card readers and computers. If none work, the files may be damaged. Format the memory card using your Kenwood device. Note that formatting will erase all saved files. Kenwood recommends branded Class 10 memory cards and formatting the SD card with the device for first-time use.

      A 'Card Full' message on your Kenwood Dash Camera indicates that your SD card has reached its maximum storage capacity. If you have protected files, they limit the memory card's available space. Try deleting unnecessary files to maximize the memory card's use.

    Why do video files jump when played from Kenwood Dash Cameras?
    • N
      Nathan PhillipsAug 26, 2025
      Video files may jump during playback if you are not using a Class 10 SD card, which is recommended for best quality. If your computer doesn't recognize the video files, try viewing them on another computer. You can also copy the video file onto the computer and use the computer's video player instead of the device's playback feature.

      Mark MayAug 27, 2025
      If your Kenwood Dash Camera is only recording for a few minutes, it's likely that your SD card has very little available space. Back up all necessary files from the SD card, and then format the SD card using the device.
