The real issue behind the file splitting is the use of FAT32 on the SD
(& similar) cards because it is a minimum cpu overhead filesystem.

Ah, but were it only that. Embedded engineers tend to not know any
better and most dev kits form with FAT32 for freebies....


Either the recorders need more brains or - perhaps better, as this is
also a latency issue - an entirely new filesystem for cards & similar is
long overdue.



This. Unless they used like a PIC32 or something equally
poorly chosen.

Cheers,


Gareth.
