Files with 0kb

Hi all,

After months of using AM for fieldwork I've noticed some of them create audio files with 0kb. Usually they do it (but not all of them do it) when battery voltage is approaching the 3'6V. But a few do it regardless the battery level.

Have anyone come across this issue and the reason of it?

Many thanks,

@Michael Bruno Yes, I don't really understand what is happening here. Recording a small number of files and then writing 0KB files is generally a sign that the SD card is full (often with hidden files that don't show up on your computer) and needs reformatting. Is the content of the files that the Sandisk Ultra records okay? If you record your voice, does it appear in the recordings correctly? I would try reformatting the Sandisk Ultra card in either FAT32 or exFAT - the opposite of whichever it is already.
