[Support]: recorded clips from older version after the update

Describe the problem you are having

I updated Frigate today and I still have clips from the old version so I have 2 questions:

1. Will they be removed based on the retention setting (with the changes in the new configuration)
2. When I go to the media browser (clips), I can see the new clips created after the upgrade and some of the old clips created before the upgrade but there is a gap where videos don’t show up but I can see them on disk

Version

0.9.1-800f33e

There is already an open feature request for that: https://github.com/blakeblackshear/frigate/issues/1885

Is it possible to disable this constant recording with 5 minute retention behavior so that it ONLY records on event detection? Some of us are using SD cards and they don’t typically handle constant writes very well.
