Regarding the possible X-box/Car Number link, I observed that the X-boxes appeared as part of the status over-lay, which came up shortly after the hash or picture, following a very long VIOFO logo upon startup. If the hash appeared on the left 1/3 of the screen, there were 6 X-boxes overlaying the hash, and the rest of the picture was blank except for the status over-lay. It looked like the picture was all squashed into the left 1/3 of the screen but not the over-lay. But I didn't notice the pixels changing when moving the camera. If the active live picture came up, as it did after the first manual settings default, there were 13 X-boxes associated with the status over-lay, whereas the Car Number and Custom Text Stamp have only 11 possible entries each. In neither case (hash or picture) would the camera record at that time. I also observed a car icon that is not used on the A119/S. It too was part of the status over-lay and was located where the parking mode icon normally resides just below the video recorder icon. What all this mean I don't know, but maybe it will ring a bell for the right person.
