Recording Video to SD - 4GB Limit?

I've encountered a bug with the video camera on the Z10.  I'm using what I assume is the latest version of the software that was pushed out recently (10.2.1.2102).
I was recording video and after half an hour or so I received an error message stating there was an error saving the video.  When I checked on the SD card I can see the file with the correct date/time and file extension however the file doesn't open.  I notice the file is 4GB which is the file size limit on FAT32, so it appears that the camera doesn't automatically stop recroding and write the mp4 info, or start a new file, when it nears this limit on SD cards.
1 - can this be fixed?
2- is there any way of recovering the video?  The footage I have isn't really replacable.  I've tried VLC and mp4box with no luck.  
Thanks!

Welcome to the forums.
VLC would have been my first suggestion, there are a number of other MP4 web sites and apps out there I suggest you keep trying.

  • Powershot SX510 HS automatically stops recording video after 10 - 15 minutes into the recording.

    Powershot SX510 HS automatically stops recording video after 10 - 15 minutes on continuous recording. Is there a way to turn this off? I would like to record videos until either I press the stop recording button, or the battery gets low. I have turned off all the power saving setting, at least I think I have.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    The camera has some recording limitations as all the Canon models do. Below is how you can extend your recording times to a max of about 1 hour but there is a 4BG limit regardless so once it hits 4GB the recording stops and has to be restarted.
    Also the memory card needs to be at least a Class 6 rating or the recording will stop sooner regardless of the clip size.

  • Recording Video with Palm Centro

    Has anyone ever received the message Video Error: Unable to encode the video ?  I can't seem to record video from my phone.  I keep getting this message.  I have a 4GB card in my phone that has 3.5 GB's left so it's not storage.  Any ideas?

    Never heard of that one. My suggestion would be to hard reset then try to record video before hotsyncing

  • Photo Booth froze while recording video and did not save

    Hi-
    I was in the middle of recording a video on Photo Booth for a school project. Before you go any further- I now know that I should have used iMovie or Quick Time to record, but I was having the same problem with freezing/lagging video. So I decided on using Photo Booth because it is what I am most familiar with.
    It was about a 20 minute video and I noticed that the picture would freeze every so often, even right after I began recording, so I know it is not a size issue. I also do not have anything in my Photo Booth tray or library, so I know I have enough space.
    Here's my issue: I pressed stop when I was done recording. But I got the infamous "spinning wheel of death." It didn't go away, even after 10 minutes so I force quit. I have located the recording in Finder. It says the name of the video, and the size, but the thumbnail is just the default QuickTime icon, not an icon.
    How do I recover this? It's extremely important that I do. Hoping EZ Jim will respond!  Thank you so much in advance.
    I am using a MacBook Pro 13" from 2011.

    Yes, you should have.  Do so in future recordings that are important or longer than a couple of minutes.
    l_kleiman wrote:... the picture would freeze every so often,...
    Because your problem is the same with all three video recording applications, we can rule out application software as the cause of your trouble.  Here are some possible causes and what you can do to try to solve them:
    (1) Video recording is processor intensive.  If you are also running many more apps than only the video app while you are recording, your Mac's processor may be working near its limit.
    Restarting your Mac before recording video ensures you will not have interference from multiple user accounts or widgets (unless they are included as  > System Preferences... > Account > Login iTems.
    Remember that things like widgets and automatic checks for Mail, TimeMachine backups, iCal alarms, etc., and other background activities also add to your Mac's workload. The actions for the apps mentioned (and for most other such apps) can be disabled in "Preferences" for the apps that control them.
    Disconnect all peripherals while you are recording video, and make your record monitoring window as small as possible. These suggestions help reduce processor power requirements while recording.
    (2) Installing the maximum amount of RAM your MBP can use may help you. Your retailer can help you check what you have and install more if necessary.
    (3) Alternatively, the cause of your symptoms May lie in your system software.
    Consider the information in OS X Mountain Lion: If your Mac runs slowly.  It applies equally to your OS X Lion system.
    If you are not already running the latest Lion version, apply the OS X Lion Update 10.7.5 (Client Combo) update.)
    l_kleiman wrote:... the picture would freeze ... even right after I began recording, so I know it is not a size issue. I also do not have anything in my Photo Booth tray or library, so I know I have enough space...
    Neither freeze timing nor Photo Booth tray or library space tells you whether your startup disk has enough free ("Available") space for best operation.
    Use your Mac's Finder > File > Get Info menu command to check available free space.  Be sure you have LOTS of room (I keep 75% of my disk space free when recording video) on your MBP's disk.
    Capture your movie clips on your MBP's startup disk rather than on an external drive which is almost certainly slower.
    l_kleiman wrote:... when I was done recording... I force quit... but the thumbnail is ...not an icon.  How do I recover this?...
    If something here doesn't work, http://bit.ly/1An6zjD, your only remedy it to record the video again.
    l_kleiman wrote:... Thank you so much in advance...
    You're welcome.  If you need to post back for other suggestions, please tell us the following:
    0. What Lion version number you are using? You can find the version with the  > About This Mac menu command.
    1. Are you recording your video subjects in bright lighting?
    2. Did your Mac ever record video properly? If so, what happened immediately before the problem first appeared? (new software, hardware, etc?)
    3. How much free space is "Available" on your startup disk?
    4. How much RAM is installed in your Mac?
    5. If you added RAM, what brand (Apple, Crucial, Other World, etc.) did you install?
    6. Have you used Apple Hardware Test to verify your RAM is all working?  (If you don't know how to use AHT, see your MBP's User Guide.)
    We will offer more specific suggestions based on the details in your response.

  • Recorded Videos after Sync: The requested URL was not found on this server.

    A few days ago, i recorded a couple of videos. They were saved properly and i could watch them after it in the Camera Roll of my iPhone. Because my memory was almost full, i connected my iPhone to my MacBook and synchronized about 900 old pictures with iPhoto and selected to delete the pictures after the sync. I did not select the recently recorded videos.
    After the sync, i opened the Camera Roll on my iPhone and tried to watch the videos again. But now, they all have a grey icon and it says the duration is 0:00 minutes. When i click on a video, it shows me the following error message:
    The requested URL was not found on this server.
    When i connect my iPhone to iTunes, it says that there is about 350 MB of "Documents and Data" on my phone that I have no idea where it is coming from. Do you think it is possible that the videos are still saved on my phone but my phone doesn't recognize it as videos and can't assign it to the icons in the Camera Roll? Do you have any tips how I can access the videos in case they are still saved somewhere on my iPhone?
    Thank you very much in advance for your help and tips!

    I have the same problem too!! I was deleting some photos and videos in my phone when the next picture I swiped to was a blank picture with JPG in the middle~ after I closed camera roll and reopened it my photos and videos after that picture are all gone~ and I'm left with 3 videos I took about 30 mins before with 0:00 and when I tried to play them the message popped up saying "requested URL cannot be found on this server" T^T does anyone have a solution to this problem?

  • Recording Videos

    I am having trouble recording video from really anything (tv, dvd player, vcr, etc). I have a friend who is using a MAC and a box called a Miglia Director's cut (http://www.miglia.com/products/video/director2/)
    all he does is hook up the director's cut to the tv w/regular composite cables and it hooks to the MAC with a firewire. So then to record something off the tv all he does is open quicktime player, go to file and click record movie. Now i have tried to do the same exact thing, only im using windows and the option is not available to select "new movie recording" only "new audio"? i have found this little bit on the Support section of apple.com (http://helpqt.apple.com/qthelpwr3/english/QuickTimeHelp/pgs2/qtFmSet3.htm)
    and it does say a MAC can record video but doesnt say anything about a windows machine. is there something im doing wrong or can you not use quicktime 7 pro to record movies on a windows machine??? Please help

    From

    QuickTime 7 Pro for Windows currently supports audio capture only.

  • I'm using ezcap.tv 116 ezgamer capture card to record my PS3, this is on a windows laptop, Im then moving the recorded videos in mpg format over to my MacBook Pro to use IMovie to edit them to upload to youtube but it won't let me import them.

    I'm using ezcap.tv 116 ezgamer capture card to record my PS3, this is on a windows laptop, Im then moving the recorded videos in mpg format over to my MacBook Pro to use IMovie to edit them so i can upload them to youtube but it won't let me import them, even after changeing them to MP4 format, it just comes up with the message: "No Importable Files None of the selected files or folders can be imported. Change the selection and try again."
    Ive even tried opening in itunes and copying from thier but they wont open in Itunes, no message or anything they simple just dont open. its strange because it does open in quicktime player.
    please if anyone has any ideas that can help me please let me know XD thanks.

    First problem: You're fine. The hotter it gets, the more the fans spin up. The computer is designed so that at max load, at max fan speed, it won't overheat (unless it's obstructed by something, e.g. sitting on your bed swallowed by a comforter). It's not the best thing to keep it that toasty for days at a time, but a couple hours at a time shouldn't be a problem.
    Second problem: If something in the trash won't delete, just use Secure Empty Trash and it should be fine. Since .torrent files are quite small, it should only take a couple seconds.

  • I am after using my ipad for 2-3 hours to record video, it will be while traveling so I could do with being able to set it up so it just records while I drive. Is this possible?

    Hello as stated I wondered if there is an app that I could use to record a journey that I will make, it will take aprox 3 hours I can charge my ipad up as I go so battery life is not a problem and I have quite a bit of room on my I pad. Is it possible?

    Sure why not. The camera app will record videos and there are car chargers for the iPad that you can purchase. You will need some sort of stand to place the iPad into, but those are available as well. You might need to adapt the out of the box car stands to face in the direction that you want, but there are lots of them out there.
    You should set the iPad to not go to sleep in Settings>General>Auto Lock>Never until you are done recording.

  • I want to be able to use airplay to stream audio to another iOS device, and then use that audio stream to be used when recording video instead of the built in microphone / microphone input. Is this possible?

    I want to be able to use airplay to stream audio to another iOS device, and then use that audio stream to be used when recording video instead of the built in microphone / microphone input. Is this possible?

    A third-party app probably cannot obtain a stream from another app. To the best of my knowledge, such a capability is not provided in the software development kit, apps being "sandboxed" from each other and so allowed to communicate only in very specific and limited ways.
    I'm not completely sure what you mean by "limitations on video capture". An iPhone, to the best of my knowledge, can natively record video only through it's built-in camera, and audio while doing video recording only through the built-in microphone or mic/headphone jack. There might be a video recording app that would allow audio input from an external device connected to the dock connector, but I'm not sure.
    Regards.

    When I try to record a video using QT Pro I get the following error message:
    Operation Could not be completed due to an unknown error.
    (error Domain= NSOSStatusError Domain code= 1852797029

    I have to unplug iSight then plug it back in to get iChat video working again.
    I deleted QT pref, no luck.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks
    Fred

    after several hours of searching for and testing of lots of different video capture applications, i have finally found one. There were several that worked. But the one that was the best of the ones i tested was *EvoCam (http://www.evological.com/evocam.html)* I haven't used it for long but from what i have seen so far it works sweet. The one main thing i wanted it to do was create video recordings. that it does. it also has several cool options and effects you can apply to the video.
    hope this helps.
    i still have not been able to get QT to record video with the iSight, or find any explanation from anywhere or anyone as to why. here is a list of a few of the other software apps i tried:
    camtwist - (Really cool effects that you can apply to your cam for chats ect.)

  • I can no longer record video on  my iPad since the upgrade!

    I went to record something on video this morning, and tapped "video" on my screen, and it did nothing.  Can't seem to activate the record video button since the last upgrade of 07!

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

  • Record Video in iChat no longer available

    Trying to help my Dad with this problem.
    He owns a MacBook Air, and recently upgraded to Snow Leopard (now on 10.6.3). Before, in Leopard, he was able to record iChat sessions in "Video-> Record Chat" with the same computer. For some reason, now that option is grayed out.
    Under "Video -> Connection Doctor -> Capabilities", it lists "Insufficient CPU" next to "Record Video Chat".
    I had him delete all of his iChat preferences in his Home->Library->Preferences folder (which subsequently fixed the problem of me not being able to share his screen). However, it did not fix the record video problem.
    Did Apple take out this feature for certain processors with the advent of Snow Leopard? How can he get it back short of taking 10.6 off of his system? Seems very strange to me that this is not working when it used to.

  • Ability to record video in QT Pro on Win 8.1

    Just bought QT 7 pro for Windows registration key. App states it is registered QT pro for Windows, have downloaded and installed version 7.5.x and app shows registered as QT Pro.
    I see no create new movie recording options under this QT Pro install on win8.1 on this sufrace pro I am helping this guy with. On my Macs in QT pro I can record video, and see no option of that here in the Windows QT pro version. Do I need a different download or for some unfathomable reason does Windows QT pro not support video recording. I bought the win version for this guy assuming it would be just like my macs..I have working video cameras connected to the machine, as well as a built in webcam...
    Hoping its an ID-10-T error on my part, but do not see video options...help is appreciated

    New video recording has always been a Mac only feature of Pro.
