    I shot a 4 hour interview on my 2016 Moto G4. The last hour or so was audio only because the phone ran out of internal storage (32GB) and I didn’t have an SD card in it. It has a slot though.

      Ooh you had the big one. 😎
      That’s actually pretty cool, both that it was able to take a 3 hour video, and that it goes audio only, instead of just cutting off.
      Back in the day when we used FAT32 you couldn’t have files bigger than 2GB. 😜

        I did the audio-only part with a separate audio recorder because the phone was full. The video is in a bunch of parts but I don’t remember if any are larger than 2GB. It is FAT32 so maybe they must be smaller. I remember the phone ran out of battery power after maybe an hour, and I plugged in a power bank (10000 mah) and that was enough for the rest of the session.

          Oh boy, that must have been fun. 😋
          Ah yes I remember messing with all those part files because Microsoft always had such poor foresight.

            This was some years back but I think the multiple files were primarily because we took breaks in the interview and stopped the camera. I don’t remember if any parts hit the file size limits. I still have the files on a server someplace, so might check.
