Hi guys. Just installed viofo129 duo with hardwire kit. Parking mode is important for me so I put auto event detection mode ON. I have some questions sometimes when I open the door I can hear beep sound and rec light flashing. It will turn off when I press the button. Is that normal? Another thing when I check back the recordings got some parking videos only not until I drive the car next morning. Is that bcz it auto off after battery colt reach 12.4?
I tried to test parking mode g sensor by shaking the car from outside free times. But it didn’t record any videos... pls enlighten me

QUOTE(tissue07 @ Dec 20 2019, 10:20 PM) What I mean was, is the setting correct to have the dashcam keep videoing never engine is off ? Each video is about 3mins.  Because all along I thought it will start recording when there's a bang or crash (during parking mode) Yeah I'm very new to dashcam! Thanks for all your kind advice x Mine also same. Is this normal? |

QUOTE(blurjoey @ Aug 23 2020, 10:37 PM) Um... If parking mode is important to you, should have went straight with Thinkware dashcam instead of A129. Viofo's buffered parking mode is not 100% prefect like Thinkware dashcam. But it is the 1st China dashcam manufacturer to get buffered parking mode to work almost like Thinkware's. Another thing, check what firmware are you using? Heard new firmware has some fixes for parking mode. Don’t have budget to buy thinkware bro. I’m using latest 2.1 firmware. Yesterday I format the memory card and reset settings of the camera. Want to test today |

QUOTE(blurjoey @ Aug 24 2020, 10:47 AM) Where did you get it installed? If at an authorized installer then should be ok. If accessories shops then need to check if correct or not. It’s not at Sizurez so definitely not authorised I think. But I get good deal (I think so) rm840 plus high endurance sandisk 128gb and installation. Btw today I found this notification when want to start my car after parking. The exclamation sign like the photo attached. It goes off after a while.

QUOTE(blurjoey @ Aug 24 2020, 03:00 PM) The warning is impact detected or manual recording. I doubted so. I checked back the videos n no video saved in locked files. Btw I go thru viofo website n found that parking mode with hardwire kit will only works if the cable connected directly to the camera not thru gps mount. So I just changed and see hw it goes Attached thumbnail(s)
