I have lost a few frames of very critical scene because of this issue.
I searched Internet and found that this is a DJI firmware bug.

-- Open Letter to DJI RE: Loss Frames When Splitting Video Files
-- Missing video frames when spanning video files

Is this issue of "losing a few frames between every file split of 4GB" solved?
Is there any fix or solution?

Yes, shoot in clips... most major productions don't have long scenes, unless you pay a ton of money, the import laws on "Video cameras" will keep the file splits happening.

Just remember to restart the recording prior to each shot you need, especially if it's important.

Why Digital Cameras Have a 30 Minute Video Recording Limit
Why DJI picked the short time they did, I'm not sure, but with my Nikon it's based on file size, because when I increase the resolution, the time decreases. But this is all PURELY because of governments trying to steal more money from their people.
