Video segment length setting

[UgashikBob]

Greetings:
Is there a setting that will allow me to increase the length of the recorded video segments? Mine seem to break the segments in to 9 minute lengths and I would like to make them longer.

Only way is to drop the quality. It's fixed via the FAT system in the bird to around 4GB file size and no more which equates to the 9 minutes at high rez. Bad part is it drops a few frames so a clean splice is futile with mine. Try to fly in segments of 8 minutes and arrange in edit so it doesn't show (i.e.Time for a commerical break.)

Thanks GMack. I thought I used to see segments around 15 minutes but it must of been in 1080 or lower.

As @GMack noted, it's a limitation of the P3 itself.

The P3 splits video files at 4GB. There are no workarounds regardless of formatting as either FAT32 or exFAT.
The P3 will still split video files at 4GB even though the exFat format itself allows larger files.
