Holding down D-pad Left is the official way to stop recording. But, if you're in the heat of the moment, accidentally starting a new recording is way too easy. I learned to double-check if I actually stopped the recording or just made things worse.
Quick tip: just tap the D-pad Left briefly. Holding it down starts a new recording, which is the opposite of what you want.
