Split Videos

Is there a way to bypass the 4GB file size limit for video captures on a Mavic 3 Classic or is that an industry limit? I would like to avoid stitching every video of this size.

It's a removeable card issue from a long time ago.

But is there a work around?

Yes ... shoot in a lower resolution and you will get longer video files.
The limit is on file size - 3.7GB.

What about formatting the card to exFat?

No workaround other than lower resolution. It is an industry standard for cards.

I see this question alot. Maybe we ask why you would want one big long humongous video file?

Just in case I don't want to do any editing.

I find that annoying as well, but unfortunately, there's no way around it at the present. FAT32 limits file sizes to 4 GB, but, yes exFAT supports humongous file sizes and is the supported file format for our Mavics.

From DJI:

Hi there, the supported file systems of the camera are FAT32 and exFAT, it is recommended to format the SD card via the DJI FLY app. For DJI products, the maximum capacity of a single file will not exceed 4GB. 1. For SD cards with a memory less than 64GB, only FAT32 file system can be used (SD Association stipulates that files can be formatted into exFAT in Windows system for non-standard usage). Files larger than 4GB cannot be stored on a FAT32 volume. 2. For SD cards with a memory larger than or equal to 64GB, only exFAT file system can be used (which is specified by SD Association). Theoretically, a single file can exceed 4GB. However, in order to avoid errors resulted from files being too large, we still split files when the capacity exceeds 4GB.

That clears it up. Thanks for the response.
