ZM v1.37.50 record duration problem

With last three updates I have a problem with record length.
I have 5 cameras and all of them are set to record 300 frames after alarm ends and it worked well for about 7-8 years (Post Event Image Count=300).

Currently my ZM version is 1.37.50~20240123163957-focal and record length is fixed at 10 minutes. In version before this one all records were set to 10 seconds and in version before that again all records were 10 minutes.

Usually before those updates my recording were variable length depending of alarm duration and 300 frames after alarm ended (in my case about 20 seconds) which is expected behavior.

Also camera settings are (sorry for new post only 3 attachments are allowed):

So it seems that now behavior is set by camera misc setting where in my case is minimum 10 seconds and maximum 600 seconds. If I change that record length changes, but in my opinion it should be defined by time alarm stopped.

If you need any additional information feel free to ask.

Try to use "EVENT_CLOSE_MODE - Idle" on config page and restart ZM.

Thank you for advice but that is not it. That setting is already set to "idle" for years.
For now I reverted to 1.37.48 and it is working fine.
