    Contour Roam2 corrupted files

    I have a Contour Roam2. Occasionally when I have it running for a few minutes, the video file is corrupted and I can only watch the first part of it. It makes no indication when this happens, it acts like it's still recording, and I don't find out until I get home and play back the files. It tells me the full length of the file, but can only play part way through. Has anyone else had this issue? Any ideas how to fix it?

    I tried ffmpeg -i, the output is here

    One of the corrupted files is here

    Thanks


    EDIT: Formatting the card using the Contour's built-in format option seems to have resolved both issues I was having (video clips being corrupted, and the camera beeping as if there was an error during recording).

    I tried the Contour's built-in SD card format option, I'm hoping that will solve it, and if not I'm going to try a different card. I'm not familiar with low level formatting, but if the things I'm trying don't work I'll look into it. Thanks for the suggestion.
