Go Pro Questions

Both brands work well for me, are you sure you didn't get a counterfeit card?

I could have, though I bought them at a local well known retailer. I know that Sandisk was warrantying the cards that bricked, I hadn't kept any of my receipts so I got hosed, my mistake there.
 
Managed to get it to download and convert @ 1080-30 but then I have no idea how to do anything with it lol no option to upload or add stuff .....I'm beginning to think this go pro cine studio thingy might be the downfall ...
 
You probably have iMovie installed, use that, perfect for the job, easy to use, and loads of YT tutorials.
 
I was trying that today ...thought it would just drag and drop ..but didn't want to do it I'm sure there's a way ...my daughter has a YouTube channel so I'm sure she can help out her divvy dad :-)
 
I've played around with I movies before it's just getting it from go pro studio to I moves that's proving the hard bit
 
Maybe uninstall it for now, and copy the files direct to the computer, or close it if it opens and copy manually? That way you can import the raw file direct to iMovie.
 
GoPros have pretty big files so it could just be your computer.

I'm recording in 720p 60 frames and I think it looks just fine. Should I rather maybe do 1080p and 30 frames?

Because you are on a bike while recording I think you will want to keep it at 60fps. I know VERY little about all the technical stuff of it all but for how we are recording it'll be best to keep it at 60fps to my understanding at least.

hello one and all
A couple of questions regarding hero 3 (which I have) I recorded my first footage yesterday and replaying it's jerky, I read I little bit and used the gopro editing thingy to convert it and it's still jerky ... I was using 1080@60fps will it make a huge difference to run 720@60fps

Question 2

How do you attach a mic and keep it waterproof (England) without Bluetooth ?

Thanks

I have the same problem while viewing the video prior to and during editing. However after the movie is made and uploaded to youtube it is fine. I also have the gopro settings on 1080p60 and I have a 64G micro SD.
 
Another thing to look at is your CPU/Processor usage.... if you are close to the 100% mark then your Mac is struggling to decompress the file at a suitable speed. The gopro's have some fairly aggressive compression when recording in the higher resolutions and fps ranges.
I had a class 10 sd card, hero 3 + and I could barely use gopro studio because my laptop was shite... maxed out on processor and disk access constantly. Got new laptop in the end and it was fine.
 
I tried to post the link but i am still new here so not allowed yet..

just google - best microsd card for gopro - first link goes to gopros site and theres a list of accepted cards.

Loads and loads of guides about using a mic with the waterproof case. You'll have to drill a hole, make it water tight as you can.

What spec is your PC? Jumpy play back tends to be a slow machine rather than the GoPro, unless you're using a crap SD card?
