Gopro Hero3

Discussion in 'Clothing, Gadgets & Equipment' started by Ballbagracer, Mar 25, 2014.

  1. Ok, so I got myself a GoPro 3 and had a little play but when I play my sample back the footage is all jerky!! I have done some googling and it would seem it's my puta :-( I tried some software that was recommended but still jerky!!

    My question to all you hero3 users is what kind of spec puta do you use to get normal play back?

  7. My netbook wont run HD recording either. Run YT etc ok but not from the cam. Likely video processor and ram is the issue

  12. I only have an issue when editing mine playback is fine

    If you are having jerky playback get a hold of streamclip and use it to change the codec used. This may just well solve the problem as I had something similar on an old machine and that solved it

  13. Had the same problem after getting my GoPro and filming some track footage. Wouldn't play on my ipad and wouldn't play on my laptop. Same issues as you, all jerky stop start or sound wasn't in time.

    Found an easy fix.

    Spend £1500 on a MacBook Pro. Does the job a treat and it's got that iMovie thingy.

  14. Download VLC player. Its free and uses a lot less resources to play videos, its worth a shot before you go spending money...

  15. Jerky video. Video is a bastard. You need loads of ram and the most expensive graphics card ever made. That should sort things out. I've given up on video because I can't upgrade the graphics on my 4 year old iMac . Films of slugs are ok though .

  16. I had similar issues with an old mac book pro.
    The higher the definition and higher the frame rates the harder the computer needs to work.
    I bought a new MacBook Pro that solved it for me but you may just be able to resize the video and compress it. Try a program called MPEG streamclip by squared 5
    Squared 5 - MPEG Streamclip video converter for Mac and Windows
    Its used by a lot of video editors and its free! Worth a try rather than spending £1500 on a new poota.
    Cheers
