I was looking at this one for example:

Headunits switch off when the car is turned off. They don't usually record in the first place, and beyond that they won't record when they're off anyway. The 4 camera inputs are just for operation while it's on.
The unit you linked is designed to work in tandem with their dash-cam for that purpose.

If you got both, then the dash-cam would be able to record while the vehicle is both on and off if set up properly. Then, when the vehicle is on, you could control it through the head unit. The recordings are captured and stored via the dash-cam in that case.
