What can cause logged data to become corrupt?
If the card is removed whilst the VBOX is logging and data is being written to the card then it is highly likely that the file will be corrupt because the last line of data will be half written. This can be solved by opening the file in Notepad and deleting the last part written line. An incorrectly formatted card will either not allow data to be written or will write corrupted files. Very large files write data in large blocks, so if the card is removed without the logging being stopped and the file closed, then a lot more data than the last line will be lost.
