Now you can expand a memory card size upto 16gb using new E-compression technology.you can expand a 2gb or 4gb or 8gb to 16gb using very simple methods.its doesn't slow your copying.also its work.

Did you reformat the card before writing the files to it? Depending on the number of channels and complexity of your sequences, you might experience issues using SanDisk SD cards, or any other brand of SD cards that isn't a Kingston card. It is very highly recommended to use only Kingston SD cards due to the performance issues of other brands.I made sure to re-format the card before attempting to save the show (ran into that issue before ? ). We are running 128 channels, using sequences purchases via WOWLights.Is there a particular reason for using Kingston cards only, or this is a known-but-unaddressed issue with LOR?

Sandisk and others are perplexed. Just stick with Kingston whenever possible. I too previously bought from Wowlights and their Lexar works fine - but I think Kingston makes Lexar.are you using the show builder utility? Kinda confusing - your profile says 5.2.2 but you are using 3.12.0.Anyway - I use the Simple Show Builder - easy peasy - works every time.Sorry for the confusion. My profile info is for my personal setup. The issues I am discussing are for my neighbour's setup.Is there a size limit to the SD card I can/should use? My 'shopper on the scene' can't find any 4GB Kingston/Lexar SD cards anywhere.EDIT: I just tried using the Simple Show Builder (on the 4GB SanDisk), and I'm getting the same error:Edited December 2, 2018 by Kulstadadditional info.
I've used 8 GB Kingston SD cards w/o any problems. I wanted to buy a few more spares but had trouble finding a US seller so I ended up getting a few 16 GB Kingston SD cards.
Haven't tried them yet but I'm assuming they'll work OK since I have the newest version of the MiniDirector.I just purchased one of (16GB Lexar SD). Couldn't format it to FAT (even through command-line); could only format it to FAT32 (exFAT and NTFS were also options). The show software recognized it, and wrote to the card just fine, but when put in the master controller, it wouldn't recognize the card. Well that's a bummer since that means I won't be able to use the two 16GB Kingston SD cards I just received from Amazon. I don't have any other use for them so I'll just hang on to them in case I ever get a newer version of the MiniDirector in the future that can handle 16GB cards.There may be a firmware update in the future that could increase the capacity, but not sure if that's what would do that, or if the circuitry itself would have to be changed to accommodate a larger capacity SD Card in the Director.
Hopefully it could just be a simple firmware update and then you'd have more capacity than you'll probably ever need. But in this ever-changing hobby you just never know.
