Hey guys,
Since yesterday I'm trying to make "long" videos (~one hour) in HD1080p quality and everytime the size of the video exceed or is near 4Go the recording stops saying limit is reached.
Of course I tried to store in both internal memory and SD card the result is obviously the same.
So my question: is it possible to start a new file (recording) automaticaly? cause if the limit is FAT32 I'm afraid there is no alternative.
May be there is?
By the way, I'm using LineageOS 15.1 2018.02.18-UNOFFICIAL-mido and the default cam recorder.
Thx for your help.
Best regards

You could use google cam to actually record better. (At 60 fps) and possibly you can record more than hour long videos.

Thx for your time.

I have a issue for a long time with whatsapp. I can only film 6 seconds with the camcorder.
When i set the Razrs' camcorder at a lower resolution it won't help (WA still uses HD+).
Are there others with this issue? How long can you film?

Im sure the limit for whatsapp is only 12mb vidz which totally sucks and i can see why only 6 seconds.. Hope it helps!!
Usually happens when sd card is too slow. What is your Sdcard's class?
im waiting for a new SD card (ordered it last week), but i think it wont fix the problem.. But who knows
dont think it matters.. takin in mind that 12mb is the limit for videos being uploaded i dont see why they would increase it for camcorder vids!! thats my point of view..
u can prob just record the video normally.. use a video converter which would reduce size but retain a pretty good quality of the vid
limit problem solution
Take a look to send a video 1024Mb

After searching for a while it seems few people have shared my problem but none really found a solution.
I'm on a Galaxy S3 i9300 running the latest stable build of SlimKat (which is AOSP based) and it appears snapchat videos only record for a second or so before stopping. According to what I read i recognized the problem as a memory problem, snapchat has a maximum memory capacity for video and for some reason on AOSP based ROMs it reaches that maximum too early. I confirmed this because I saw that when Video Quality is set on "Low" it does record the full 10 seconds (although in messed up proportions which is why I don't want to use it) and if I put the Video Mode on regular and put my thumb on the camera it records 10 seconds of black, and if I suddenly remove the finger it ends because of the memory maximum.
How can I fix this problem? I really like vanilla android and I don't want to move to Samsung based ROMs for something like this. Please help

Had a dream about this... Try going to camera app and go to video setting, in the recording setting change the video to a lower one. Mine was at 1080p and when I changed it to 720p it started working amazing. Try setting it lower if that doesn't work for you. Mine was only recording for 1 second and would stop, after this I can record the full length allowed now. Let us know if this works for you

Hello everyone.
I can only record video for 10 minutes and then phone automatically stops recording.
10 minutes limit is on FHD (1920x1080) 60fps option, if i turn to FHD but 30fps there is 25 minutes, but it's still not enough.
My card is formated in exFat, so 4GB problem doesn't exist.
Does anybody can make mod to camera apk to bypass this limit?
Chris
Same problem I noticed here. I'm trying to record road trips and that time limit surely doesn't help at all!
I'm saddened to see not a single reply yet.
I assume using some different camera apps could override that limit. Haven't tried though so can't confirm. Although I actually want to use the stock camera and prefer it over any other camera app.
Hoping to find a solution for this...
Hi guys,
I've been using iPhone since they launched and LG V30 is my first android phone.
Here is my question,
Is there a way to record more than 4 GB?
I've been using my LG V30 to record some of my music sessions and it seems that everytime file size reaches 4GB, it stops and restarts.
Stop and restart is okay but there is about 3 second missing from it.
I've tried open camera app but for some reason, audio is terrible.
Can anyone chime in and help me out with this?
Thanks alot.

Are you using the LG camera app in order to film your work or are you using the app called HD audio recorder? On my TMO V30 the HD recorder was already installed.
Next are you recording to internal storage or SD card storage?
If you have external SD card how did you initially format the card? FAT32 or EXFAT?
Answers to those questions may point you to an answer.

Hi psawjack.
Sorry I thread was miss leading.
I meant Video recording.

I tried both internal and external and both did not work. and SD card is formatted as EXFAT.

Okay, here's what I would do. I'd try to do a recording with the HD recording app and test to see if it allows recordings over 4gb. If so then issue is probably due to Camera app. From there if try a different camera app to test. I'd recommend the Google camera mod app available on this forum.
If the HD recording fails after 4gb then maybe system wide limitation. Do you have a AV file over 4gb? Could you connect to computer and try to copy file over to both SD and internal storage and see if you get any errors copying?

Hi! I'm getting a V30 this week and I also plan to do a lot of video recording with it so this is of interest to me. I did bump into the 4GB file size limit on Android as well when recording long videos with other Android phones such as my V10. First I thought it would have something to do with FAT32 storage format which has a 4GB file size limit but after doing some research it seems it's not related to FAT32 but a (arbitrary?) limitation of the Android OS. However, some Android phone makers seem to be able to tweak the OS in such a way that you can record beyond 4GB, for instance Sony (tested it on a Xperia XZ).
Regarding the V30, I just happened to come across this recent thread which is talking about a new OS update for the V30/V30+ bringing features of the newer V30 ThinQ to the older V30(+): https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-v30/how-to/oreo-update-ai-camera-t3760379. Now the interesting thing is that one of the new features listed says "Google Drive supports downloading files larger than 4GB". It could be nothing after all but maybe, just maybe, this also means that Android on the V30 now generally copes with files larger than 4GB and that this will also affect recording video with the native app.
Other than that, a few thoughts how to tackle the problem:
- Judging from my experience with the V10, the native camera app of the V30 should have the option to change the recording bitrate. If you can live with a lower bitrate for your video, you can squeeze out a couple of more minutes recording time. On the V10 I was able to record over 1 hour in 720p resolution with the low bitrate setting.
- I don't have the V30 yet, but maybe the native app (or some 3rd party recording app) has the option to record with the newer H.265/HEVC video codec instead of the (still) common H.264. The superior compression of H.265 will allow you to have a much smaller file size while keeping the quality, ergo you will be able to record a lot longer even if the 4GB file size limit continues to exist.
- OpenCamera is only one of the 3rd party camera apps that support auto-restart: If you find the audio to be terrible you could also check out "Cinema FV-5" or "Filmic Pro".
That being said, I'm glad to hear that on the V30, the native app at least seems to automatically restart after reaching the file size limit. On the V10, you have to manually push the record button again which is annoying when you just want to place the camera somewhere and keep it running while you have other things to do.
Still, let's hope Android get rid of this limitation asap!
I recently realized this limitations of 4gb and there's an interruption of several seconds at least when recording 4k slog format...this is terribly disappointing.
I don't mind the 4gb size limit but how is it possible that you miss time between files?
Infuriating.
Hey I'm having issues with my LG V30+ From Sprint. I'm having issues with recording a video that lasts more than 11:53. I'm trying to record a full softball game but the recording cuts off at 11:53 and creates a whole new video. How can I make it just one long video without having it be a Time Lapse video? Thanks for the help!

Is it "11:53" limit -- or does it just happen to coincidentally be 11:53 due to your high resolution settings? In reality you are running up against the Android 4GB video recording limit? Like if you set it for 720p or more efficient codec you could record more than 11:53? (see post below)
I didn't even know about this 4GB limit until the other day... How do people record concerts then?
