Yes, same with me. There's no video on sentry - or, at least such a short clip that nothing appears to move.
I haven't tried watching on the PC yet so that might have the whole video.

My Model 3 just had the update to 2020.16.2.1. Seems to offer nothing much extra in a stationary vehicle, other than Backgammon being a lot harder. The dashcam isn't much better as far as I can tell. They still haven't implemented a scrubber function nor variable speed playback so only able to view in real time; no way I'm going to sit through the in car viewing yet, unless I'm desperate.
Hopefully something will have improved on the road.

My comment was more a reference to everything tesla that is “coming soon”. Maybe the earlier generation owners know more about the meaning of tesla “soon”Not yet.
Release notes are still Beta

Installed 2020.16.2.1 this evening. Besides the toybox, charging sites and backgammon improvements, I really wanted to test the formatting of my dashcam USB drive to exFAT.
But I went to Controls > Safety & Security, the FORMAT USB DEVICE button was greyed out. I worked out that it won't format a drive when it had been partitioned into two volumes (I had partitioned my 360GB M.2 drive into a 200GB partition for dashcam and the remainder for music files).
After swapping the 360GB drive with a normal 16GB drive, I was able to format it. I went out for a short drive, and plugged the drive into my PC and can confirm the following:

- Tesla formatted the drive as exFAT with 32KB sector size
- drive name was "TESLADRIVE"
- a "TeslaCam" folder exists with a "RecentClips" sub-folder containing the dashcam videos from my short drive
Done the whole 'hit the advanced button' 5 times and everything as well. Per jason66's post a couple of pages back, puts me in the bottom 3%. I've driven the car every day in the past 3 months so not like it's been missing out on use.

Log a service call with Tesla Service Centre. I've read cars that had updates blocked at the server end---they had to be manually unblocked by Tesla before new updates started flowing again.

I have a separate USB drive for music files, hope the sentry system doesn't decide to format that one.

It would be interesting to see if Tesla can execute the formatting (on the correct one) when more than one physical USB drives are plugged in. I would swap out your music one with a spare drive before attempting

Am I missing something? I tried several times to format incar, but the "Format" button is greyed out.
2020.16.2.1 appears to have reduced the regenerative braking in my M3.
I noticed that I am using the brake pedal more often after the update.
Frist world problem but I am spoilt by single pedal driving.
Maybe its less aggressive but has the same regen.
I wish we had more than 2 levels of regen as I miss the deceleration.

I think not only is formatting and and save on honk greyed out on a multi partition drive with 2020.16.2.1
sentry mode is also disabled
No sentry mode recording screen warning
Nothing recording, no on screen xx number of event warnings, no mater what I tried
Sentry mode wasn't recording on 2020.16.2.1 until I reformatted to single partition
I had two partitions on SSD
Dashcam was still working

Thanks.
I checked it but it remains unchanged.
I manually turn the SMS message sync and notifications on after every update as that's turned off.
