Hello,
I own a A129 Pro Duo dashcam and am very happy with it. The only issue I have is with the way it handles clips in parking mode and I'm not sure what I'm experiencing is normal.
Whenever I park the car and come back to it after a long period of time, it only has the last 200 or so clips (100 for the front cam and 100 for the rear cam) for that session. For example, if I park my car in front of our home at 5PM and go check on the dashcam a few times over the course of the evening and the following morning, I would get something like this:
Now, you'd think I ran out of memory or something, causing the device to erase the older clips, but no. I have plenty of space and I still have the recordings from the previous days. It's like every parking mode sessions can only hold keep a finite number of clips (about 200). I tried reading the sd card on my computer to see if maybe the Viofo app was acting up, but it's the same thing.
The card is a Sandisk High Endurance 256GB. I don't have a GPS Module.
Is this normal/expected behavior? If not, any idea on how to fix it? Thanks!

- At 7PM, I would see all the clips that have been recorded since 5PM
- At 10PM, I would see about 2h30 worth of recording (everything between 5PM and 7h30PM would be gone)
- At 8AM, I would see most of the night (in the limit of 200 or so clips)
- At 11AM, I would see about 2h or 2h30 worth of recording (and everything I saw at 8AM would be gone)
