Post by: ballajazzhus on September 28, 2012, 10:08:32 PM
I just installed ML on my 550d, When trying out the different new things i found out that i only can record approx 35min on my 16Gb card.
This cant be right.

You do realize that you have the same limit with stock firmware, right?

Enable movie restart in ML menu...you'll loose a couple of seconds between each video but it will record multiple 35min clips.

Hmm, I am a little confused with the query and the answers. Please help me understand :)

I use a Sandisk Class 10, 16 GB (30 MB/ps) card however, what is the ideal minutes this card would support (How many minutes of video in full HD/continuous recording).

Thank you for answering :)

Cheers,

Depends on card/iso/bit rate.

For me 32GB is 32minutes give or take... although camera stops after 29
something.
