    Hello! Regarding your device recording overnight with a full SD card, here is an analysis of the problem and all possible solutions:

    Analysis:
    When the SD card is full, if the device is set to "full-day recording" mode, new recordings will not be able to continue writing to the SD card, which may cause recording interruption or the device cannot store new video data normally.

    Solution:
    1. Check the SD card recording mode:
    Go to [Preferences/Settings] - > [Video Storage] - > [SD card record mode] on the device to check if the current recording mode is "Full Day Recording" or "Event Recording".
    If it is "event recording", the device only records when the event is triggered, and the SD card may not fill up quickly; if it is "full-day recording", it records continuously, and the SD card fills up quickly.

    2. Clear SD card space:
    Backup old video files from the SD card to a computer or other storage device, then format the SD card in FAT32 format.
    Note: Please back up important data before formatting to avoid loss.

    3. Set up loop recording:
    Some devices support cyclic recording, which means that the new recording automatically overwrites the old recording. Please confirm whether this function is enabled in the device settings to avoid recording stopping due to the SD card being full.

    4. SD card capacity and compatibility:
    Confirm that the SD card capacity is 8GB~ 128GB and the format is FAT32..
    Make sure to use a high-quality SD card to avoid card malfunctions affecting recording.

    5. SD card recording switch:
    Please make sure that both the "SD card read/write switch" and "SD card recording switch" are turned on.
    Go to the device [Preferences/Settings] and check the relevant switch status.

    6. Cloud storage backup:
    If you subscribe to cloud storage services, other recordings will be synchronized and stored in the cloud to avoid missing videos due to SD card fullness.
    - You may consider switching recording priority storage to Cloud as a Service.

    Comfort:
    SD card capacity limitations can indeed bring inconvenience to continuous recording. I understand your need for the device to record overnight without worries. The above methods can help you effectively extend the storage time of the recording and ensure the continuity of the recording. Please operate with confidence.

    Guide:
    To better assist you, may I ask what is your device model? Which recording mode are you using (event recording or full-day recording)? What is your current SD card capacity and usage? Have you tried backing up and formatting your SD card? This information will help us provide you with more accurate recommendations.
