I feel like these cars have more than enough sensors and data to be able to activate the alarm under numerous circumstances. Heck, the mics in the front seats could potentially have a dual purpose of listening for broken glass etc, given they are tuned for specific frequencies.
So dumb question, but does the dash cam/TeslaCam on the refresh S and X work differently that other Teslas. Neither of my other Teslas supported TeslaCam, but it seems like on other cars, the dash cam records a continuous loop, while in my Plaid, it seems like I can only capture clips. Is this correct or am I doing something wrong?
It should be a rolling hour loop. I think they still cut the clips into smaller chunks, but the dash cam should stitch them together.
The only caveat to that being if the dash cam software is half-baked. Entirely possible.
What is on your storage device? Is there files for a full drive? Do not have my car at the moment, but will check this out this week.
Thanks--I am using the default USB that ships with the car. I don't have a loop, the only clips I have are the ones I trigger manually or via honking.
Will definitely check this when I get my car back. Hopefully tomorrow or Wednesday.Thanks--I am using the default USB that ships with the car. I don't have a loop, the only clips I have are the ones I trigger manually or via honking.

Omar did you check the "recents" folder on your USB stick? That should have the latest ~10 minutes of captured videos.Thanks--I am using the default USB that ships with the car. I don't have a loop, the only clips I have are the ones I trigger manually or via honking.
On a whim, I tried Summons today, tried backing out go our two car garage)--I had given up on it since it never really worked right since delivery. Lo and behold, it worked. Not sure if it was fixed in a FW upgrade (on 36.8.9) or because I'm in FSD beta (10.6), but I thought I'd pass it along.

Guessing you need FSD for that? I have EAP on my 3 and I miss the fact I can't back my S out of spots or call it from across the car park (I don't miss it enough to sink $10k)

Tesla released the updated Model X wiring schematic. Weirdly, still none for the S. The table of contents says one of the pages is for "Steering, Display Actuators" but only has information for steering. No mention of trim light engines. Motorized mechanisms are still present in the parts catalog.

Perhaps this is already covered in one of the proceeding 42 pages of comments but does anyone notice that the quality of the backup camera on the display is not as crisp as earlier Model S? Just seems a bit more blurry despite cleaning the camera. Wondering if it is just a software issue or something I need service to take a look at.

It seems sub-par compared to the Model 3 in resolution and colour reproduction. Unsure if the resolution is just because the screen is slightly bigger, but I'm leaning to no, that's not it.
Yes. Can confirm it has been released in 44.5
Mine is still calibrating but someone posted a video driving while toggling the setting. Not much of a noticeable difference over audio. I’ll see what it is like in person later today.

I have it (and did a video on it) but am not part of EAP - downloaded 44.5 a few days ago and after about a day it just appeared.
