Other people have had the same problem, but mine is a little different. My card is a PNY 64GB 90MB/Second Class 10 that I format after putting into camera. When I first got the camera a couple of years ago I could record as long as I wanted. Now, only a few seconds, so I don't get the video I want. Most of the others with this problem needed to step up to a faster card. This one exceeds all the specs that were mentioned.
Also, I can't find a setting in my Menu to set the "Automatic Shutoff". Does the 70D have that, and if so, how do I get to it?
Really appreciate any help I can get.

There are only two kinds of automatic shutoff, and I don't believe either of them is ever optional:
1) The camera shuts off when it starts to overheat, to avoid risking damage to the sensor or vulnerable circuit elements.
2) The camera stops recording after 30 minutes, to avoid being taxed as a video camera by the EU and other jurisdictions that adhere to the same definition.

Hi loyd!
Have you transferred everything off your card and done a low-level format in the camera, or tried a different card, just to make sure your card hasn't degraded or gotten electronically damaged somehow?

Just got the "ultimate" SD card - SanDisk Extreme Pro 64GB, 95MB/Sec class 10. I low level formatted it and video ran for 3 seconds before stopping. I hope someone can offer a suggestion as to what is going on and how I might be able to fix it.

Hi I realize that this is two years later however I haven't seen any correct advice for this issue. It is a settings issue. In the settings section the "video snapshot" icon has been selected which will only allow for 5 second shots to be put together. Deselect this option. Yay!
