I assume thats it not a fault with my cameras or phone that sees it lagging by quite a few seconds and that is just their idea of "real time" but its normal for it to lag like that?

 

What GO PRO you running 1 2 or 3 ?

 

Ive got a couple of 2's with the wifi back on each one.
Ive got a 1 as well but im not sure if you can do wifi on a one or not? Mine has a screen on it so havent tried TBH

 

Mine is the same Chip

 

I've got 3 and seems fine to me that's why I was asking that's all.

 

So if you have your 3 paired, and you wave in front of it, you see that on the phone straight away, like you would if viewing the phones own camera?

 

I'm using a Hero 2 and there is around a 2 second delay

 

Is yours a 2 as well?


I just found this when web searching about it, this is exactly like mine:

 

Does it on the 3 as well by the sounds of it, so god knows how rsmat's doesnt

I never said mine wasn't compared to me iPhone its slow but not 2seconds

 

It's a shame it's not ultra fast but for like this guys says its ok as a feature.

The WiFi video link is very detailed and smooth believe it or not. But of course the catch with WiFi is that it introduces a 4 time delay lag. This is a shame but for setting up a shot it does the job! I think for the uses this camera has, you don’t need realtime monitoring any way. Just the ability to set that shot up and monitor it remotely with no cable is pretty cool for a free add-on. The app is free in the App Store and the firmware update is on Go Pro’s site here.

 

just an idea.

do you have genuine high speed memory cards or normal sd cards?

 

Got a mixture spikey and I dont think it makes any difference TBH, and nor would I expect it to given that no doubt the code is in parellel for sending to wifi and sending to the car, cant imagine it waits for the card write to finish before it sends it on wifi.

Shame there isnt a way to turn the resolution right down and make it quicker
I understand it cant be totally instant over wifi, but would be nice to get it quicker than it is for certain applications (reversing camera for example)

 

no prob's, was just a thought

 

Agreed it would be nice to turn the resolution down a bit and make quicker but tbh I've only use it to show people or other than ill use it for setting up I can't see it being anything more than little feature/ gimmick .

 

i also have a hero 2 with a Class 10 SD Card and the wifi pac but using the app on an android phone, i also have a 2 sec+- delay

i haven't had a chance to use it much but so far it hasn't been so slow that it annoys me

 

Bit off topic but does anybody know how to edit go pro films?

 

Use windows movie maker or the GO PRO download ... Rather than explain here's a Vid off YouTube mate

 

i started off using a converter and just trimmed out what i didnt want, ive also tried the gopro software found here

im now using sony vega pro 10, which is alot better but there is ao many option im still very much a noob and learning the ropes

 

Cheers i will have a go at downloading them
