So I typically tape a full 12-hour day at festivals without swapping cards/formatting between shows (in scalding heat, driving sleet, all that).
Only lost one set to the zero file size problem over several years but it never happened again and I was slightly altered by then so I didn't get into it too much.
Question regarding filesystems and sector allocations and such:
If I format a card, then sequentially record a series of sets onto the card, would the filesystem not allocate sectors sequentially, tidily, easily searchable, etc?
Effectively making it a fine way to operate?
Seems like the sorts of issues being referred to would be the result of deleting and re-recording repeatedly on the same card, eh?
