I only open 70 GB files on a desktop computer with windows 10 and 16 GB of RAM. Laptop with Windows 8 and 4 GB of RAM, unfortunately, does not open them. In both cases, I have a lot of disk space.

I have 32gb RAM on this box and no joy, even after moving the files to an SSD.

Tty convert to dng with my linked windows workflow.

I select the options I want and try to run but the dialog just blinks and doesn't do anything. Same behavior when escalated to Admin.

Edit: Playing with things more this seems to be a memory/resource issue with MLV App. I can render segments of the MLV file with no issue, just not all 80000+ frames at once. I'll keep playing around with this to figure out where the sweet spot is.

I've tried MLV App and MLVProducer (which gives an out of memory error when trying to open the file. I'll give it a shot with MLVFS if this attempt fails.

The application becomes non-responsive after about 4-10%. My computer can handle 4k editing and games (sometimes at the same time), so I don't think it's a performance issue with my hardware.

Why can't you export? What exactly do you try?

I don't know why it fails after a few percent of progress. I've tried exporting in Prores, Prores Proxy, and H.265. I just reformated my card in FAT32 to see if that fixes it.

I must be missing a setting in here. How do I get my EOS-M to record MLV files in 4gb chunks rather than one large one?

I need to record an hour long interview and I am getting a 150gb file that I can't export in MLV App.

Or maybe you are doing it wrong.

Distinct possibility. The files seemed intact in that I could load them into MLVApp or another MLV processing tool, but couldn't get them out in a format that I could send into an NLE. I don't know enough about the container to tell if the issue is with the app not being happy at 100gb+ files or if I was doing something in camera that was breaking the process.

That I could get shorter files to play nice makes me think it's simply a size issue with the post-processing tools.

Also, thank you for all your work on these builds. I just got an EOS M to play around with some of stuff you've tricked that thing into doing.

The LUA Fix branch did it. Guess the way Crop Rec is doing things isn't great.

I was just getting one 60-80g file.

I switched from the Crop Rec mode to the LUA fix one so I'll try that and see if it spits out 4g chunks.

Let's start with my use case: I need to record an interview, about an hour long, uninterrupted.

I'm using a T5i (700D) with the latest Crop Rec build. I can record in RAW 720p (using the MLVLite module) for that duration, but once I move the .mlv to my computer (Windows 10) and try to convert it... it fails. I've tried MLVApp, MLVProducer, and MLVFS_x86. They can load/mount the file, but fail on export at around 1%.

Is there any option in the MLVLite module that would chunk the file into more manageable bits so I can convert just 10/15 minutes at a time? Or a way to split the file before putting it through one of the apps?
