Why does my Zoom Q8 or Q4 split my recording into 2 files?
This is due to a limitation of the .mov file, which the Q8 and Q4 use to record. The maximum size a .mov file can be is 4GB. Once this limit is reached while recording with the Zoom camcorder, it will begin a new file to continue further recording.
