I’ll be going on a 10 day trip starting in August.
I have backed up files daily using a battery powered hard drive, then formatted the cards …stupid, idiotic mistake. GoPro doesn't allow you to set file numbers, so unknowingly I was writing over the previous days video every day. I lost everything but the last day of my 2022 NC500 trip.
Insert curse word here.
In 2023 I backed up my files daily to my ipad….I didn't lose any files, but GoPro file numbering system is so bizarre that it makes figuring out the order of the files difficult…and I’ve just discovered that DaVinci can’t find the files that I copied into the Photos app on my iMac.
Insert another curse word here..
So….
Whats the best way to back up files daily?
Is there a work-around that will let me set the start number for files on the GoPro?
Has anyone got a suggestion where on my iMac I can put the files so DaVinci can “see” the damn files?
