[Fot] More GoPro

[toodamnfunky at comcast.net]

I had/have the same problem with video shutting off and restarting. As far as the remote only lasting 20- 25 minutes just means your not getting a full charge. 
Most people that use the remote encounter charging problems. At the top of the list of causes is bad connection from the cable to the remote. 
Mine was fixed with a really good cleaning of the contacts on the remote. Other solutions have been taking the remote apart and checking the battery connections 
for corrosion. Some have reported a small amount of condensation inside the remote and just cleaning up internal connections works. 
Here's a thread on that subject.

Yup, mine is the same way. I found it awkward but got over it. My displeasure is with the remote control. The battery only last 20 to 25 minutes and when it dies it shuts the camera off. I talked to the good folks at GoPro and they suggested I buy one of their auxiliary batteries and hook it up to the remote using the charging cord.  I tried to explain that the remote was mounted to the dash in a race car and that was not the best of ideas and it did not compute on their end.  Any ideas on making the remote battery last longer?

perfectly normal. The GoPro cameras use a FAT32 file system (or exFAT) which has a file size limit of 4GB. If you set your resolution high then you reach 4GB sooner. No big deal, and it’s actually a pretty good idea for longer videos anyway—if a file gets corrupted it doesn’t kill the whole video.

I have a GoPro  Hero 4 which I could use some help with please.  
It takes good videos but it wants to stop recording at 12 minutes and start up a new video. Can someone help me my settings to remedy this? 
I don't seem to have a 12 year old in the area to ask. 
Thanks
