I've been caught out a couple times now with my 0806 not locking/protecting videos right after it begins recording (i was under the impression the camera will lock 3 video segments, the one currently recording, the one after and the one before is that correct?)
For example, jump in the car after work, drive off something happens in the first video segment, i hit protect (get padlock icon) only to find out it didn't lock the "current" video segment (and obviously not the one before it that would already be on the car from the last drive), only the one following it (which is useless to me).
After that if i hit lock during the rest of the trip (bout 1 hr round trip from Home <-> Work) it'll lock properly
Is this normal? I'm currently using a 8Gb card so i only get about an hour of recording before it loops (less if there's locked videos - waiting on a 64GB transcend to turn up so this won't be a big issue as the camera won't loop over the segment as often anyway, still be nice to lock the segment as it should though), also recording in 5 minute segments and running latest firmware update.
Any advice would be good (as it kinda defeats the purpose of the camera and i'd rather not pull over to manually search + lock the video segment)
Cheers
ps, Is the blue LED indicator ment to always be on when connected to power? My cams connected to permanent power via a hardwire kit, so even when i turn the camera off (which is most of the time, except if i leave the car somewhere not work/home) the lights still on (more an annoyance than an issue, sure my old cam that died didn't stay on unless the camera was actually switched ON whilst connected to power)
