Viofo T130 3 Channel Dashcam - 2K Front + FHD Interior + FHD Rear

Great example and very obvious. What TF-Card are you using? I am using a Samsung Evo Plus MicroSDXC UHS-I U3 Card
I'm using a Viofo 64gb card but I have been using Samsung evo cards as well with no issues whatsoever in the A129 Pro Duo and the A129 plus Duo eMMC version. They are very reliable.

I agree the Samsung has been solid. eMMC version looks like a good idea. I keep a spare TF-Card in the car in case I forget putting the copied one back. Been caught a couple of times.
I have been checking my videos and found with the original firmware Unit V1.0_0809 and Rear V1.0_0720 some of my footage is doing similar to your example. In some rear cam footage it looks like it goes into slow motion for a second or two.

You are doing the right thing by keeping a spare available in case it is needed. I do keep an extra one in the vehicle even though I have a total of 4 systems running simultaneously (testing units).

You have made some good observations with the timing of the tracks. I haven't had the chance to look at my footage with detail to see what else is happening. Maybe tomorrow will get to it in the morning.

I feel @viofo will correct the issue and provide us with a new firmware release soon. It is not unusual some bugs get introduced while fixing other issues but they will get it right.

Has anyone that is using parking surveillance noticed interference with keyless systems or the DAB signal?

What kind of interference? Wi-Fi connection or video damage? or other of course.

Bad DAB Connection or Keyless Systems not working properly. Don't get me wrong, I don't have a T130. Just want to know if that's still a problem with the newest cams.

It's not something predictable unless someone has tried the exact same routing and mounting in the exact same car as yours. These are both signs of EMI-electromagnetic Interference- which every dashcam generates and every car is susceptible to. A cam might do fine in one car but no others, or can do fine in all cars but one. A different cam can totally change those results either direction as can a different car.

So there's no way to answer your question properly. It may be better for you or worse for you and different for everyone else. It is as much the car as it is the cam where the problem arises from, and no cam is better or worse for EMI than any other, only different.

There are no problems with this on my car.
 
Nor mine
 
I am interested in one point:
Is it possible in the new firmware to make it possible to disable the internal camera in the settings?
Sometimes this feature is very useful. 😉
 
The rear camera does not work for me, V1.0-20210908T153452Z-001 was flashed normally, after some activation, it stopped working.
And it is not stitched.
The Reset button doesn't help.
Is there a bootloader for the rear camera? 😢

I've had 2 episodes of the T130 w/HWK not switching back to driving mode after low-bitrate parking mode. Cam wouldn't respond to buttom prersses; had to unplug-replug to start it up again. Last parking files and all other files are OK and not particularly hot when it's happened.

Using the HWK from the A139 which has been 100% with that cam, so it's not a HWK issue.

i haven’t installed the 3 wire yet. I’m using the supplied cigarette power supply.
Often I find I’m stationary for a period of time with the car running and found that as designed it goes into parking mode which is neat but all the dash cam buttons are disabled including the wi-fi.

if I’m not moving again but want to copy a file of the dash cam I have had to unplug the cig power. Then restart and attempt to download again but it fails as it goes into park mode again and disconnects wi-fi!
This means I never get a copy of the files I want!
This was part of my testing.
the work around was to disable parking mode when I first stop which isn’t really ideal.
cheers.

I think that "key lock feature" should be removed, or at least make it optional in settings for those who find it useful.
I think there are few more of us that have found it problematic as opposed to those that really need it.
 
There is no visual control during the operation of the DVR, why did they remove the AV output, then the wifi should work by default.
This is security, not filming.
Voice data is not a substitute for visual control.
And the quality of the shooting is very low, my cheap DVRs shot much better, very low bitrate, on cameras, the picture is falling, you don't even need to talk about night videos !!
The firmware needs the HDR function - definitely !!
