Every time I clear the SD card, the file name starts back at one

I know on a regular camera it will keep track of the last file name used and increment the number on it's own, but each time I clear the SD card, the next picture I take is 1. Is there a setting I'm missing in my P3P?

Thanks in advance for the help.
 
You can find that setting in the following section of DJI GO:

Go to the File Index Mode setting as shown in post#2.
Select the Continuous option if you want the file numbering to continue from where the last flight stopped.

You might consider renaming the file as soon as it's recorded (e.g DJI_20171024AM_P3P). That saves confusion when you copy/move it to your HD.
 
OK ... on Android ... need to scroll down in Camera Menu area by :

<MENU>
* settings

scroll down as the option is not shown immediately ...

Mine does the same thing unless when deleting the files I leave the last one. That way it continues where it left off. I'll have to check my settings later and see how it's set but I thought it was on continuous.
 
I had everything packed away for our return trip. I will take a look and see if I can find the mentioned setting. Thanks for all the responses!
