IMPORTANT !
RECORDING INFORMATION!
!
! ! !
!When recording onto a USB drive, we recommend using the GPlayer Flash for the best results. !
!A thumb drive’s performance depends on its controller
chip and NAND flash media quality. !
Gplayers are Grade “A” NAND flash drives are guaranteed for 3 years• to function properly, and for this reason we suggest using the GPlayer for the finest results. Other thumb drives may not work properly. !
EPL Solutions will not be held responsible if videos are lost due to !
1) User error !
2) Storage media failure.!
(I) Cell blocks go bad over time leading to data loss. It is a good practice to occasionally
format flash media when using one flash media as as storage device for long periods of time. For more information see trouble shooting or visit http://eplsolutions.net/support.
