Configurable Time for Recording length following Detection of Movement or Person (C510W)

It would be useful to have the length of time the camera records after a detection configurable.
At the moment if a car drives into my driveway the camera will record the event and follow the car away from the camera's "home" position.
If the car sits in another part of my property for several minutes the camera will no longer detect movement and return to its home position.
At this point the car and person in it are outside the field of view because the camera has already stopped recording and returned to its home position.
So that I can see if said person exits the car and then smashes in my front door, I would like to be able to capture such an event. This could be achieved by allowing me to configure the length of time the camera records after the initial detection without the camera returning to the home position.
So, to achieve this two things are required:-
1. The time for continued recording after a movement detection should be able to be configured.
2. If the time above is configured then the camera should stay in the same position (unless it's tracking movement away from the current field of view) for this length of time without returning to the home positon.

So, I have loaded the latest firmware 1.3.3.
This is still not good.
After movement ceases the camera stays fixed on the last position while recording for 30 seconds. Then the camera returns to its home position (while still recording).
So events are still being missed as the camera is now looking at the home position and not where the last movement ceased.
THESE TIMES NEED TO BE CONFIGURABLE.
1. CONFIGURE THE LENGTH OF RECORDING TIME AFTER THE LAST MOVEMENT HAS BEEN DETECTED.
2. CONFIGURE THE LENGTH OF TIME BEFORE
THE CAMERA RETURNS TO ITS HOME POSITION
