FineVu GX1000 Test / Review RCG

There should be multiple video files for smart time lapse. Here's the overview I wrote in the top of this thread for smart time lapse

"Driving Recording" modes - more info
  • Smart Time Lapse
    • Video File Info
      • Continuously records 60 second time-lapse video files
      • 2560x1440 30 fps combined Front/Rear H.264 time-lapse video files
      • Stored in "normal" directory - File basename suffix "_N"
      • Front/rear video is recorded at 6 fps - No audio is recorded
      • Each 60 second time-lapse video file equals 5 minutes of wall clock time
    • When an impact event occurs:
      • Writing to the "Smart Time Lapse" video file in the "normal" directory is not interrupted
        • The "Smart Time Lapse" video file continues to be written to while the impact event video file is created.
      • An impact event video file is created
        • Impact Event Video File Info
          • 2560x1440 30fps combined Front/Rear H.264 AVI
          • Stored in "event" directory - File basename suffix "_E"
          • 2560x1440 30fps 15.66 Mbps (F) + 2560x1440 30fps 15.66 Mbps (R)
      • Buffered: 20 Seconds Total = 10 seconds before / after triggering impact
Parking Mode
  • Smart Time Lapse
    • Continuously records 20 second videos
    • 2560x1440 30 fps combined Front/Rear H.264 time-lapse video files
    • Stored in "motion" directory - File basename suffix "_M"
    • Front/rear video is recorded at 2 fps - No audio is recorded
    • Each 20 second time-lapse video file equals 5 minutes of wall clock time
    • The smart time lapse videos are not interrupted by an impact event.
    • Both the smart time lapse and impact video files are written to the microSD at the same time.
    • Impact event
      • 2560x1440 30fps combined front/rear H.264 AVI file
      • Stored in "parking" directory - File basename suffix "_P"
      • 2560x1440 30fps 15.66 Mbps (F) + 2560x1440 30fps 15.66 Mbps (R)
      • Buffered: 20 Seconds Total = 10 seconds before / after triggering impact
    • Returning to normal recording mode.
      • FineVu has stated this parking mode should announce the number of events that took place in this parking mode.
      • My testing has found this parking mode does not announce the number of events.
I read that earlier and just wanted to double check.

Let me check the camera memory card in the morning and see what it says but I think something is off as this morning there was only one recording.

Thank you. With the Powercell 8 I can get a full night on a charge, basically from after work parking until I wake up in the morning and head to work. I need to drive more to ensure that the battery pack is fully charged before I leave it for the night as One full night afterwork will leave me with about 15% battery. I also put some Wzye cameras outside of my apartment patio as I normally park on my block as a back up camera in the event of an impact that is not caught on the dashcam.

Thank you for all your help.
