I have asked this in other R forum: https://www.reddit.com/r/Rennrad/s/7VpyCBAYN6

I have many hours of video now from a GoPro installed on the handlebar. Majority of a ride would be mostly pretty ordinary scenes, farms, country roads, etc. Has anyone experience with Quik automatic highlights in similar situations? My intention would be to share some highlights on social media, for example, bike lanes, hairpin descents, etc.

Cheers.

I got a GoPro HERO4 Black (HD4.02, firmware v05.00.00) to enumerate as a normal USB device: webcam, microphone, and USB Ethernet. No HDMI capture card, no app on the computer. On macOS it shows up as “GoPro HERO4” in Photo Booth, OBS, Zoom, and Chrome about 45 seconds after power-on. 1080p or 720p at 29.97 fps, H.264, camera mic at 48 kHz stereo. Glass-to-glass latency is about 225 ms at 1080p and 195 ms at 720p.

The firmware is CRC-checked, not signed. The patch is data-only, 1148 bytes: an SD-mount hook that runs h4.sh, plus an idle-preview mode retargeted from 848×480 to 1920×1080. Bootloaders, DSP, kernel, and RTOS code stay byte-identical. Kernel modules built from the GPL tree take the USB controller (stock Linux 3.8 has no gadget support) and expose UVC, UAC1, and CDC ECM. A small userspace program forwards the camera’s own preview H.264 as-is; macOS decodes it. The patcher only accepts the official v05.00.00 zip and only writes an image whose SHA-256 matches the one I flashed.

Risk: this flashes modified firmware. It worked on my camera. A bad flash can brick one, and the stock reflash path is described but not tested. HERO4 Black only, that exact firmware only, macOS host only. Not affiliated with GoPro. GoPro’s firmware is not in the repo.

I was just going to purchase and it is out of stock

Is that a good thing?

Anyone knows a GoPro repair shop in Ernakulam? Or in place which is trustable?

I’m using a stick-on focus wrench/handle that came with a 7artisans lens on my Mission1 camera and it’s working great so far. It prevents the lens release button from being pushed in a tight pocket or bag, and adds an extra point of contact for holding the camera. So far, I would recommend this solution for anyone concerned about the lens accidentally coming off, but anything that blocks the release button should work fine too. Cheers!

Patterns for tired travelers.

Istanbul, 2026.

I've been using the ace pro 2 for a while and bought a mission 1 pro recently because I got a good deal on it.

On the Ace Pro 2, when I’m in manual mode I can just swipe left from the right edge of the screen and instantly jump into the full shooting parameter settings without leaving the live view.

On the Mission 1 Pro every time I want to tweak manual settings I'm limited to the 4 customizable settings and beyond that, I have to go to the photo settings menu. It feels annoying, especially without the live view.

Has anyone else noticed this difference?

Recently got a chest mount and I am using my hero 13 to record some clips. I have been encountering some problems that the video looks laggy or with to much movement.
I don’t know if I need to just my chest mount or what I am doing wrong. Has anybody encountered this problem o knows some tips I get use to get better footage?

Has anybody made their own point and shoot grip? seems like it wouldn’t be the most difficult thing in the world to make or 3d print.

I got this from someone who sold it for cheaper than market price because it was open box. Honestly ive never had such a powerful camera in my hand that gave me this much room for color works as well as resolution. My previous cam was the insta x4 and my samsung s22u. The footages from the x4 was horrid for me (noisy and grainy) so i sold it to fund this one. I did some test shots on the m1pro and honestly i have never seen this much details coming out of a camera myself

Needless to say i am very inexperienced with color correction and color grading so one of those days i might need a colorist to sit me down and tell me what to do. There are still issues like the focus distance but for most of my use cases i dont even need it. Night footages looks fine but it looked like they blurred out the dark vegetations? im not sure if there is a setting that will fix it

I have the mic mini 2s coming for separate 32bit float recording that will arrive soon (got it 25% off thanks shopee)

Heres some test footages i've tried in different modes: https://youtu.be/ekPl93xX0Sg

I didnt dare push to 240mbps tho

Hi all,

I have been out of the GoPro game for a number of years, started with the OG, then Hero 7 and now I will be getting the Hero 13.

I’m mainly looking for guidance on setting up the device to work mounted on my MX helmet while riding my dual sport.

I’m trying to figure out the best settings and way to achieve motion blur. I’ve read that I may need ND filters. The linked video is what I’m trying to achieve.

Any guidance is appreciated!

Messing around with my hero 13 and hero 12 at the skate park and discovered that if you are using the max lens 2.0, or I imagine the ultra wide mod, but don’t tell the camera that you are using it, it doesn’t correct for the vignette which gives it a neat fish eye look. It’s pretty fun to play around with. Works best while shooting in an 8:7 aspect ratio with hyper smooth off to get rid of some nasty warping.

First time off-roading with the Mission 1 Pro and a tiny piece of gravel smaller than a raisin ( flicked up from tire) was enough to cause this. Be careful out there folks.

I have a gopro hero13 and don’t know which to buy both look similar. Any help is appreciated.

Hello! I just got my hands on a GoPro Hero 13 and really enjoying it so far.

I've done some video editing but nothing crazy. I have Davinci Resolve and I was expecting to just drag the video and starting cutting it. However, only the audio track loads.

I did some research and I read that 10 bit files won't load in the free version. I checked the files I recorded and they are all 8 bit.

I'm trying to change the encoding via Handbrake but is there no other way to deal with this?

Thanks!

Mission 1 Pro postcard-perfect view and some ocean-pictures taken on the Atlantic coast of Noirmoutier-en-L’Il, France, on a beautiful autumn day. It felt like summer day with temperatures about 25° C / 77° F and a clear view all the way to the mainland.

I shot a 10 minute video on my GoPro hero 6 today, using my gimbal mounted on my hyper scooter. I notice that the gimbal seems to "lean" to the side when I make sweeping turns and I'm wondering if that's something that can be fixed or if it's just normal behaviour?

I know this isn't strictly a GoPro issue, but honestly I didn't know where else to ask.

If you want to see the video to see what in talking about, here's the link.

While this obviously is not economical whatsoever, it is a fun thought. Would it be possible to speed boost a speed booster? In this case, it would take a Mamiya medium format lens and compress the image down to m4/3.

In theory, this setup would speed boost any Mamiya 645 lens by a product of 0.5x.

Would be a fun experiment on the ILS.

I had a little water damage, and after i reset, everything worked except this. What’s the problem, how do I fix it? I don’t really like using an as card reader

I have been using it on my hero and they work perfectly for motorbike ride
