Hi! I have an Osmo Action and it split my video into very short and small pieces. Like 0:01 (1 second) files with 3-4-7Mb each. And I have thousands of those files for 3 clips. Why?

Also, I can preview the video on the Osmo camera correctly, but when I connect the USB or Mimo app it will show either hundreds of small files or not work at all (Loading failed into Mimo app)

Any ideas?

It's not settings related, it's a bug. I have a few more clips that were recorded correctly with the same settings. Unfortunately I lost good footage because of this.  I understand splitting a file when it reaches 4Gb due to filesystem settings, but splitting it in 3-7Mb pieces is ridiculous!

Sound like a memory card issue to me, what brand / model do you use ?
Have it worked fine before ??
Where did you get the memory card from ???

That would be my first guess. Card has been working well, I have two of them. 128Gb Samsung memory card. Purchased from a large reseller in my country.

Well i would still test it with something like H2testw and SD formatter ( full format / overwrite )

I have myself had memory cards die on me before i got to fill them up one time, and here we talk about top of the line fast U3 cards from Transcend and PNY, 64 GB cards that back then was more expensive than the 256 GB Kingston canvas plus  A1 - V30 card i got a few weeks ago.
And we have also just on another forum had a guy whose memory card suddenly dropped to like 1/10 of the write speed it was supposed to have, but he did manage to restore that sucker by running it thru SD formatter a whopping 2 times before it tested as it should again.

As a tester ( dashcams and action ) i currently have a new dashcam that is problematic too, if i set it to record 10 minute segments it work flawless, but if i use my preferred 3 min segments it some times stop recording, and then always make the last recordings 1 second long, and then just 2 of the 3 cameras in the system.
The issue are not heat or power related so it must be hardware, but sadly hardware not least novatek i am not of much help with, so the guys at that company have to crack that nut them self.
