- VIOFO A119
So I got a new car recently, which has stop/start. I usually turn it off, but not during my commute, as it's mostly in traffic.
I've wired my A119 into a fuse that is permanent ignition live. I was advised which fuse to use by other owners of the same car where they have had no problems with their cameras.
I'm finding that I lose 6 seconds of footage whenever the car restarts through stop/start.
But worse still, if I've only stopped for a short time, the camera will go into a strange mode:
The REC LED is solid red
The screen stays with the backlight on (settings is to turn off after 30secs)
The camera isn't recording (but isn't beeping, like it should)
This seems to have improved since I've updated to firmware 3.4, but still happens every now and then.
Has anyone had any similar issues with a car with Stop/Start?
