Using V19.0 and GoPro3 with iFunBox

Post by llan981 »

I read the release notes. I am using the following configuration:

main camera iPhone 6 using IOS 8.3
wifi camera gopro 3+BE
multiCam IPOD 5th generation using is iOS 8.3
Dual 160GPS
GoPoint BT1a

1. Your release note said GoPro 4 will do automated transfer, what about GOPRO 3? If yes, how?

2. I noticed you mentioned Ifunbox does not work on iOS8.3. If so how do you transfer files from iPod multicam to iPhone main camera?

3. Does the ICLOUD automated interface work from multicam to main?

4. Does HLT multicam work with HLTv19.0

I have a track weekend and just want to check on these facts.

Hi,

1. for the H3 the feature is disabled because it is not reliable. You can enable it in Expert Setting if you swear you will not ask for support or blame LapTimer :-) in general footage is transferred by selecting the video from Video List and pressing download. Transfer is slow (because the action can is slow).

2. Just use iTunes. LapTimer has file sharing enabled now. Select iTunes / your phone / Apps and LapTimer from the bottom box. You will see its Documents folder to the right. Move videos in/out as required.

3. tested, yes. But sometimes takes long to start and works with WiFi connection to Internet only.

4. MultiCam v19 has been released too. I didn't announce it, only a small number of changes here.

To follow up questions :
1, I was using multicam 18.3.6. When I went to the apple menu to see if it was on my automatically downloaded list and it was not. I deleted existing version of multicam and downloaded it manually from the app store and I got v19. One last thing on this topic is Harry's multi cam on the App Store gives no indication what version number it is.

2. I will be doing 12 run sessions at 24 minutes each this weekend. Should I use the cloud to transfer. If I use iTunes and transfer manually to the documents folder will the videos automatically link to the appropriate run session .

Not sure what you mean by no version number? Every app has a version number on AppStore?

I do not consider the amount of video you plan to record and transfer realistic. This is a lot too much and will force you into all kinds of trouble. My usual recommendation is to focus on driving 80% of the time and select some special "photo shooting" sessions when you are constant with your drive and light conditions are great. I understand the desire to video everything to be able to analyze everything, but it will be too cumbersome.

I will agree focus on event and safety first. But you do have a fantastic product that you can set and forget. I always do post event processing of the event days or weeks later and then transfer the files, last year, using ifunbox. This year, with itunes enabled, I will transfer using that process and then re-link.
