File size limit or duration limit with Nano Flash

I have some media that was recorded on the Nano Flash. It seems that there is a file size or duration limit as 3.7Gb is the largest file size (and there are numerous ones this exact size) or 4:54:15 in duration. Is this a setting set wrong by the camera operators or is this inherent to the Nano Flash?

Dear Scott,

For many reasons, we limit file size to 3.72 GB.

We define a Clip as a recording, and we break this up into smaller size files, no larger than 3.72 GB.

We do this maninly to maintain compatibility with the Mac and PC, which both support FAT32 easily, no add-on drivers needed.

We also do this for safety. If there is a file corruption, which is unlikely, then only the small file is lost. If you are recording for hours, which the nanoFlash can do, and you run out of battery power, only the last file is lost.

We have programs that will stitch these small files into a larger one.

But, one can drag and drop the group of small files and drop them into a timeline, in one operation. Then in many editors you can group these files together.

I hope this helps.

You have the choice of I-frame @100Mbps, 50Mbps is only Long GOP
