when FAT32 only supports upto 4gb , does it mean long as vids r under 4gb and not space on card

[eddiebhoy]

I have a 32gb micro sd card , and the format is FAT32 , and from what I am told it will only support files up to 4gb , Now am I right in saying not up to 4gb as in space as the card I have is 32gb , isit forexample being a movie as long as it doesn't go over 4gb , As I have been trying to get like 5 or 6 movies onto my card , but I wasn't paying attention to what size the movie file was , as it was the case only 2 would play out the five , is that down to the size of the file , As I am understanding correct me here its not the space your taking up , it's just long as the movie file is under 4gb and if all movies are under that size I can put a bunch on to play.

What prevents you from reformatting the card to NTFS? I had the same problem with large movies using FAT32 but overcame it by reformatting. Check that the devices you would use the card in can handle NTFS.

I have three movies in just now that work fine and are not above 4gb per file , but I put a 4th file in that was only 800mb and it doesn't play and also a 5th that's under 4gb and that does not play either , I tried using different players but didn't work, I also tried formatting it as ntfs and exfat , that also didn't work , would deeply appreciate advice and direction on how to go on this coz surely with my card being 32gb I could get more than 3 movies under 4gb for each movie.
