Hi,

When I try the parking mode on the A119 mini 2 without the hardware kit, if it remains motionless for 5 minutes, it switches to the parking mode. However, when you choose the time-lapse recording option, instead of disabling it when the GPS speed exceeds 8 km/h, the parking mode is disabled as soon as the image changes and you have to wait another 5 minutes. If the image changes, parking mode is disabled.
There is a logical error here.

Works stably with parking mode hardware kit.

It should work stably even after waiting 5 minutes.

Solution suggestion:
when using power bank
Edit: Instead of 5 minutes,
The transition time to parking mode should be 3 minutes.

1. In image detection parking option, image detection should be activated after 3 minutes of normal recording.
When there is a movement or impact, it records the 15 seconds before and the 30 seconds after for a total of 45 seconds. If there is no movement after 45 seconds, it should switch to movement mode again.
So it shouldn't wait 3 minutes again.

2. accelerated recording option.
Parking registration should start after 3 minutes.
and if the vehicle is hit, normal registration must be made. and it should do this without stopping and restarting the video. If there is no image change in the recording made after the impact, the video should be terminated according to the loop option and the accelerated recording should be started again.
In short, recording should not start after images from time-lapse recording are detected. It should switch to normal recording when there is a crash or when passing at a speed of 8 km/h.

3.Continuous low bit audio recording.
After 3 minutes, parking recording should start at low speed.
When impact is detected, the rest of the video should be recorded at normal bit without stopping recording. and parking mode must be deactivated when speeds of 8 km/h are exceeded.

All 3 parking modes need improvement overall. If there is a parking mode without a hardware kit in the menu, it should work stably.
If parking mode will only work with the Hardware kit, parking mode should not be included in the camera and application options when there is no kit connection.

Additionally, if the GPS disabled option is enabled in parking mode, it is necessary to give an additional idea to the suggestions above.
Because when GPS is disabled in parking mode, there will be no transition to normal speed-sensitive recording. Maybe normal recording can be evaluated here every time an image is detected.

The above suggestions will save both data and energy.

When you want to watch video from the a119 mini 2 camera, the video sound becomes louder than in the menu.
This helps to hear the video recording while watching the video.
But when you go back to the menu, the loud sound persists. i.e. the menu and sound notification volume setting will be disabled until the next time it is turned on again.

This may happen to all models with a screen. because I created a history report for a129 pro but it did not work.
