So after updating to beta firmware last night with 3 wire. I set timer for 30 minutes. How ever 8 hours later it was still recording.

I think I posted this elsewhere as well.

Was it recording in time-lapse mode or normal mode?

Which beta did you install?

I'm not sure, how do you tell the difference?

Ok that's the last beta, we're working on a new version now that should address the issue you have

OK sweet will wait for that.

How do you tell the difference between normal and parking mode? Is the led red or can be set as a different colour?

you'll see a clock icon on the right side of the display when it switches modes

On the beta thread it says:

No change log as this is a test build, needs testing by both 2 and 3 wire power supply users, note new menu setting Power Input, default is 2 wire, this will need to be changed to 3 wire for those with the 3 wire power supply

What does it mean by 2 and 3 wire power supply users?

you either have a two wire power supply, aka the cig charger, or the hardwire kit which is 3 wire

I'm about to load up 1.34T now. Will let you know how it goes.

ok thanks

Looks like coincidence. I'm still having these issues with either a) full video recordings instead of parking mode or b) a short 3 minute clip before shutting off. I'm at a loss as to why most of my issues seem to happen where I park for work in a parking garage.

what firmware version are you on currently?

 

[PegasusStrike]

Updated to 1.34T, formatted the card after the firmware update, 6 hour shutdown timer and 5fps, set the camera to 3 power supply and got about 1 minute of footage before the camera shut off

12.2V, same voltage since it's been installed

Try using the next lower value
