No automatic in-session reconnect for external camera
Posted: Wed Jul 24, 2019 9:54 am
Hi there,
from time to time it happens that the camera Wifi connection is lost for some time and then comes back on. I experienced this for two main reasons: camera turns off because of low battery and loose charger cable or camera gets turned on only on lap 2 (after session start) because it was forgotten to turn the camera back on in the pit lane (I can reach the camera while driving)...
In these situations there seems to be an auto-reconnect missing reconnecting the external camera for the currently running session. I always have to fiddle with the camera button on the lower left corner and reselect the tiny "external" button in the popup dialog. This is quite tedious with gloves on and being on track.
Any chance to consider an auto-reconnect?
Camera in my case is a VIRB 30 Ultra.
Thanks,
