I'm okay with limitations being set for bitrate and I agree that Viofo has one of the highest bitrate among the major dashcams.Normally we don't want to set limitations for the bitrate, but sometimes we have to. Like on A129 Pro, it can support up to 4K 60Mbps + FHD 16Mbps.
It seems VIOFO 4K dashcam video bitrate is already the highest compared to others.
According to our after-sales report, most of the recording issues are caused by the memory card, if using a very high bitrate for 2 or 3 channels recording, it will cause more recording issues.
Some people don't understand why they need a better memory card, and why they need to use the recommended memory card.
You can find many negative reviews under Amazon dashcam reviews.
I'm just wondering why there is a big discrepancy in the 2CH figures at the different resolutions.
If the camera is capable of 3840x2100 = 4K 44.86Mbps front + FHD 16.06Mbps rear
Then surely it should be just as capable (if not more capable) of running the same bitrate (44.86Mbps) for the front camera at a lower resolution (3840x1600) than the current = 28.06Mbps front + FHD 16.00Mbps rear that it is assigned to?
Based on the bitrate data posted by @rcg530 , 3CH 1600P is superior to 3CH 3840x2100.
Based on the bitrate data posted by @rcg530 , 2CH 1600P is inferior to 2CH 3840x2100.
I understand about memory card problems, but this is not a memory card issue.
The same reviewer @rcg530 tested the same camera, with the same firmware, with the same memory card. The only difference was the resolution.
It does not seem like this is a "heat" issue either as the higher resolution (3840x2100) is pushing a much higher bitrate (44.86Mbps) than the lower resolution (3840x2100) setting at 28.08Mbps bitrate.
