V9 DashCam

V9 landed last night in my MS, installed it straight away.
I'd already bought a tiny 65GB flash drive, formatted it, created the root folder as instructed and plugged it into one of the front USB slots in readiness with V9 dropping.
Went out for first drive today, all seemed to be working well on the dash cam side, red dot to show it was recording, I pressed the cam to save off the last 10mins when I got home.
I thought I'd have a quick peek at the recording quality and was shocked to see the recordings were all in 1min files, I was expecting it to be a single 10min recording.

Anyone else noticed this...or is this how it is supposed to work?

A quick google around and I found out this is how it's supposed to work.
It saves 60*1 min mp4 files, overwriting the oldest over time, these are named 'recent-front cam-date/time.mp4', then when you press save int renames the last 10 files to 'saved-front-cam-date/time.mp4' so they don't get overwritten.

I'm sure over time the functionality will become more configurable and user friendly.
