VIOFO A129 Duo (Pre-production sample)

[Nigel]

it would make sense if there is a hardware difference in the pre production sample, suspect that is what was meant

Indeed, there are hardware differences in the pre-production units, and like viofo says, the latest production firmware does not work correctly when installed on pre-production hardware - need to put the pre-production firmware back and it will then work fine...

Capacitors are not swollen, they look normal.

start by rolling back to the old firmware

Loaded 1.11 which was shared before the unit initially stopped responding. Have it plugged in and recording, let's see.

If that has parking mode then I suggest you leave the parking mode turned off.

Thanks, I don't use it anyway.

Been recording fine for the past 3 hours with 1.11. Turned it off and on a couple of times in between, seems to be doing fine.

 

[Harsh]

Still recording.

Remove 2 electronic parts will make it works with latest FW.
