Wish to make 2-hour+ continuous video; can't.

I want to make a long continuous video. Point it at the baseball diamond, leave it alone, and record the entire Little League game when my grandson is pitching. Obviously there is enough memory (64GB) and enough battery life for 2 or 3 hours, but it stops recording 'automatically' after about an hour, and I can't find a way to control that.

I really have tried searching here.

Thanks.

(Should I have posted here, or in the "Help" forum.
Doing both. And apologizing in advance.

Let me toss out an idea. Some video recorders like flip cams have a size limit, like 2GB per video file. I'm not sure if that is the case here but that would be the first place to check. Best of luck!

I have looked into this myself (although still waiting for my 'pad to be shipped) as I want to make long videos too.

I understand that a 2gb limit was set (equates to 1hr) on purpose as Google/Youtube etc and most other online services have a max 2gb upload limit so people could record a full video and upload it without having to edit things.

I'm not entirely sure how true that is but it seems to be quoted in a lot of places!
