No question that Joey's problem is related to the inability of the 720 to correctly interpret the contents of the SD card, even though it's not one of the larger ones.I understand your hestitation at running the Clear Flash tool, Joey, but its designed purpose is, among others, to remedy situations such as this when the sd card isn't being read properly.
Anyway, keep us informed as to what happens; it's a way I learn more about the device & its workings.
I take it that their "Clear Flash" tool is actually designed for format the SD card in a manner that will make the directory structure acceptable to the 720? I'd understand that, since there's no provision for card formatting in the 720 itself -- an oddity. Every camera I've ever seen has the ability to do that. Several times I've had reason to allow a camera to reformat an SD card to its own standards.
If that is the function of that application, I'd agree that it makes very good sense to apply it to this problem. As long as the internal memory has been backed up with TTHome, there should be no chance of getting into a non-functioning state.
