I have a pucker BMW advanced car eye with front a rear cameras installed May 2018. Yesterday a ford fiesta driver went psycho simply because I was driving at 20mph in a 20mph zone. I have great footage of his unprovoked aggressive/intimidating driving on narrow a lane. I have reported the matter to the MET police so that will take its course (or not).
Anyway - I have the video footage on my PC and I can play back both cameras fine using the BMW software. Only some freeware video players will play the video - VLC is the best but it can only plays the rear camera.
So in readiness for the police to request a copy of the video I would like to:-
1) Extract the front and rear video footage so that these can be played on most PCs without the BMW software
2) The BMW Car Eye software has flipped (mirror image) the front camera view - anyone know how to flip it back. Front image originally played fine and I did play with the mirror button for the rear camera image - but that should not impact the front. The mirror image button is removed when the front video is playing. Software bug?).
3) I tried to load the video into video editing software - nothing would load the BMW files. Does anyone know of any freeware video editing software that will load the BMW files so that front and rear clips can be extracted and text added to the screen to narrate the scene.
