A229 Pro MOD firmwares

[Dex_]

As some of you know, I working on FW mods many years. To do such things I waste a lot of my free time and I also wrote NTKFWinfo tool and made it public for anybody else for free.
This thread was created for posting my mods for Viofo A229Pro and discuss it.

Today I share my mod based on official V1.3_240612 FW.

Changelog:

• Logging of chipset`s temperature to file "T.txt" if it was created on root folder of SD-card. Current temperature updates every minute. T.txt file sample:

• Leading zeroes in speed stamp was removed.
• New menu "Codec": H264 or H265 was implemented. Then H265 is enabled new icon under resolution text at dash screen is shown.

• New menu for customize action for Main button of Bluetooth remote.

Works not only with a new 3 button remote BTR200 but with old 1-button Bluetooth remote too.

Because of the previous point, I unblocked the selection of the 'Lock Video' action for the side buttons of the new remote control (previously, 'Lock' was hard-coded to the top button only and therefore its selection for the side buttons was not available).

• Streaming audio was added for RTSP Live video at rtsp://192.168.1.254/xxx.mov. (Video only was on official FW)
• For menu 'Parking Motion Detection' value Off was added, that allows in AED parking mode record video events only by G-sensor trigger (without motion detection trigger).
• For menu 'Screen Saver' values was added: Off, 5 min., 10 min. If Off was set screen never is turn off backlight (except turning to parking mode).
