So last night I finished an installation of an A139 Pro. I then proceeded to show the customer the video files, where the date was wrong.
I though this was weird as I did the following
-Set the time zone correctly
-time synchronization
So why would it show the wrong date?
We even waited a few minutes to gather more video footage and yet again in Live View
-1. It shows the correct time on video footage but time in top left corner is wrong.
Further puzzled we figured out that because we were underground the GPS antenna had not been synchronized.
Customer took it for a drive and voila
-time is fixed in video folder.
So why are the 2 times different? Why does the time synchronization not fix both times?
In image down below you will see top left corner is GPS time
2023/06/28 is because time synchronization would not correct until dash cam seen GPS
-Please note this firmware is about 2 firmwares old, so not sure if it was corrected in last 2 firmwares.
