I don't think it uses an AVI container. Manual and software shows only MP4 and MOV as does the software.The fact Fat32 has a 4GB limit is not the issue here. Feel free to try yourself on an exFAT volume. The limitation is the AVI file container structure, 32bit internal memory addressing. Obviously it is not a DJI specific issue either.
Ok- container issue, not necessarily AVI (although the problem is common to both). DJI probably using some freeware/open source encoder. Wasn’t until 2019 we saw this 4GB limit removed from android devices- an arbitrary limitation not file volume specific.I don't think it uses an AVI container.

Yeah, it's pretty arbitrary from camera to camera. My GoPro splits files at 4 gig even though it formats the SD card to exFAT and saves to MP4, which doesn't require a 4GB limit either. I suspect that the video recording devs and the hardware/SD card devs aren't communicating well.Ok- container issue, not necessarily AVI (although the problem is common to both).

Hi, I don't understand, why not just format the sd card in FTFS? I format all my sd cards for my Mavic 2 Pro and works really well.Having the ability to record 4K/60 fps and back to 2.7/60...do not do it. The video longer than 5 minutes will be splited again, so you will not have something better here, but you will lose the amazing 4K/60 video...just use some software and join the parts...
That may be a good thing. If you get a corrupted file you lose 33% of your video, not 100%You cannot change that, its done by default .
That's correct. The file system is FAT and has a maximum size almost exactly what the OP stated. FAT is the standard format which is used with SD cards and if NTFS is used (not sure it can be), the drone wouldn't recognize it. It also applied to earlier computers and hard drives so you were limited to maximum file sizes even using a hard drive in those "old days".I think you're bumping into the max file size on the SD card.
DJI drones also support ExFAT format which, as you might know, does not have the 4GB limitation applicable to FAT. Given it has been demonstrated that ExFAT does not allow for any increase in file size you can be confident that your assumption on this occasion is incorrect.That's correct.

Wrong, it is a card format issueNo, it’s DJI programming of the recorder. Not a card issue.
Someone did mention that, but I found that strange since one can generate videos from other sources that are bigger than 4GB.The limitation is the AVI container, it uses 32bit addressing- 2^32=4GB.
Then how is it possible that one can stitch the files together using an editor, if AVI has the limitation?The fact Fat32 has a 4GB limit is not the issue here.

NTFS is Microsoft proprietary. Many OSs don't support it at all or have limited support.Hi, I don't understand, why not just format the sd card in FTFS? I format all my sd cards for my Mavic 2 Pro and works really well.

DJI and Windows automatically format cards greater than 32GB as ExFAT, but the videos are still files less than 4GB.You need to reformat your SD card in exfat format instead of fat32. Your PC may or may not allow you to do this. If not, use a tool like this (for PC) SD Card Formatter & How Do I Format SD Card Quickly.
Once I reformatted to exfat, all of my videos were in one nice file rather than the 4GB.
You cannot change that, its done by default .
