I've had this recorder for several years. Suddenly, even after I've deleted all recordings, it tells me memory is full. Can anybody tell me what's going on or how to solve the problem? Or do I need to get a new recorder? Thx!

There is a USB port on the left about half way down. I would try hooking it up to the computer and viewing the contents. Perhaps you could erase what you find there.

Hi. This happened to me once but I am not sure how exactly I deleted the footage from the full memory card. It was NOT so straight forward. I think you probably have an external memory card, too, and you may have just deleted the footage from the external memory. Make sure in the setup menu to select the "built in memory" so you know you are deleting the stuff from it. Once it is not full, you will not see the message any more. I did not need to do anything extra to reset the error message. Good luck.BTW, you can always check the memory usage on each card from the setup menu.

I get the same thing, Tried Win7 and XP with same results. First time I took it out of the box it worked fine but now will record or turn on, reset does not work either. Tried quick + full format with same results. Must be defective, will have to return it.

I bought this particular DVD several months ago and am more than satisfied. As a matter of fact, I placed a new order of the same just days ago. However, they are recommended in the Owner's Manual of my recorder. You may be better helped by simply calling the company of your recording unit to discuss your problem. Good luck, Lynne.

It very well might be defective. On a full charge, when it does actually record which is approx. 50%-60% of the time), mine will record for a very long time. I'm somewhat surprised at the clarity of the recordings also.

No I have not had this exact same situation. However, I found this recorder to complex for me to figure out so I returned it and had the money put back on my credit card and you may want to do the same. Ron

@Benjamin Augustine: I was having the 1 second recording problem, too. I followed your instructions to reformat the internal memory, and it did the trick. Thank you so much for sharing that!

I've had similar issues with system. A short term fix is to reformat the hard drive (be aware this erases previous recordings.) I have read that setting up a separate router solely for the cameras and DNR would be a long term fix. That is a more complex task. I currently just delete or move files from recording hard drive when system slows down. Possibly more memory would help too. Hope this helps!

Perhaps a little test would be in order. Delete all the messages from the recorder and then re-record some messages and see how many you can record.

it says "card full" and stops recording. i regularly clear the card and save anything i want to keep.

I'm not sure about that. I couldn't find a setting for that, just make sure the "Loop Recording" is not set to "Off". Other than that I don't know what the issue might be, sorry.

I don't know of any issues with the recorder, I've never had any problems with them, except one time I thought something froze, but restart fixed it, no problems since then. There is a firmware update on Olympus site but its not real recent. They don't make this recorder anymore. Sony has a new recorder/video cam coming out this month to take place of the Olympus but from demo's I've seen of that one the Zeiss lens isn't very sharp, the Olympus has a better lens from what I can see.

No, when the card is full it stops recording. A "Memory is full" message appears on the screen. I also bought a 32g card.

The recorder has no files of it's own. All your folders and files are on the memory card. Everything will be saved on the memory card up till the time the batteries die.

Dont know if this is the problem but I had a lot of cracking noise and the cord on my old one was damaged. OR if you have feedback of your own voice (kind of an echo) could your recorder also be recording from its mic?

I do a lot of recording that is longer than 30 minutes on my Pan-AG-HMC40P using a 32GB memory card. It also breaks the data according to size of data. Don't know if there is a setting to extend the data size or time of recording.
