The issue with KZfaq compression is they will default to AVC1 compression (not to be confused with their new, superior AV1) for 1080p videos. You want to force it to use VP9 (currently there doesn't seem to be a way to force it to use AV1). Uploading at least 2560 x 1440 resolution forces KZfaq to use VP9 (this could change over time), avoiding the nasty AVC1 compression.

I don't know if you have the same problem, but I noticed that the auto exposure doesn't work properly sometimes. Sometimes, if I film a lanscape then a person in front of the camera, the exposure stays on the background so my character is underexposed. On my camcorders, the exposure is always adjusted on the nearest object, but not always with the gopro

I have the GPH7 dusk white limited edition brought new few years ago. And I found that 7 camera is way better than the GP11 which I recently bought I did the same protune settings for both 2.7k/50 and found the 7 was so crisp and clear. 11 so grainy and to much motion blue I think will return the 11. I’ll do more testing before I decide.

I recently purchased a GoPro Hero 11, and two days ago, I recorded a video in 5.3k resolution at 60 fps. However, when I attempted to play the video on my PC, I encountered an issue that required the HEVC (High Efficiency Video Coding) extension. Unfortunately, I couldn't find the HEVC extension in the Microsoft Store. As a result, I downloaded the HEVC extension from a different website. Now, I can open the video in various video players, but it is experiencing significant lag. How can I resolve this issue? I'm eagerly awaiting your response.

I see this on my GP11 a lot in theatre shoots which aren't the brightest lights. Large blocks and noise. Do you have any thoughts and recommendations on ways to clean that image?

Hey, would you happen to know why when i record in 5.3k and download it from my gopro 11 to the quik app / save to phone the footage becomes rather laggy, stuttery and jumpy. It does it for abit then goes back to nice and smooth then does it again ect. I have a Samsung s20 which I thought would be okay with the playback in 5.3k seen as the phone can record in 8k. If you could give me any tips and setting changes I would really appreciate it. Cheers 😊

my main issue with GoPro is having it batch my videos. My drift HD ghost cameras would run until the battery was dead, and it came out as one single file. This giant excuse that GoPro uses about the cards protecting my videos by splitting them into pieces is absolutely ridiculous and only a child would believe that, this is a choice for the user not the card maker or the camera maker. I can tell you I pretty much purchased my last GoPro thanks to them I spent half my time stitching my videos back together.

there are too many compromises that must be made for the stabilized image to be of an acceptable level. I don't have all these problems with the Hypersmooth of the GP7 and I don't have to remember to make all these manual settings so that the image is stabilized. If these are the solutions that allow you to improve the image, for me, as a motorbike rider, it is impossible to find a setting that works for all scenarios (sun, cloudy, rain, shaded areas, etc.). I will definitely sell it and I am sure that the actions of other competitors do not have these limitations

I am confused between the hero issued 10 and the version 11 in my country, the price difference between them is 850 pounds. The amount is available and this topic does not occupy my mind, but will I really notice a big difference between the two, or should I buy 10. As I said, the price difference between them does not matter to me, but I do not want to spend my money for nothing?

I have a Go Pro 10 and I recorded 4K videos at 60 FPS and it is simply bollocks. I recorded a video in sunny day in 4K at 60 FPS on a tripod on ISO set to 100 and auto shutter speed (no other option was dark enough to limit the amount of light) and the image quality looks so grainy that it is completely unwatchable. I fee like I wasted a lot of money. I don't know how they advertise it but it seems like I must have given in to the marketing magic because the video quality is nowhere near as good as in their official marketing videos.

@Anon__User 6 ай бұрын

Agreed, I bought the 12 and deeply regret it. Even on a bright sunny day, 4k 60fps (Bitrate set to 200Mbps in labs) the blue sky is full of compression artefacts, it looks like noise but ISO is locked at 100. I'm an experienced videographer/editor so I fully understand all the settings and limitations of the sensor. No way it should look this bad, like real trash. Sure it would look great If I ran it through Video Enhance AI, but I expected to get something at least vaguely comparable to the GoPro promo videos. Pro tip: You won't. I still have an old Pixel 3 with Filmic Pro and it blows the latest GoPro clean out of the water. Yes, I know GoPro has the stability, but the image is laughably bad.

Hi, as always great video. I got some question about KZfaq render process. My "flat" gopro clip flying through Sony Vegas where I edit. When I upload it and have some footage in the forest, garden..... quailty of 2,7k clip drasticly fall - pixelate it. I am wonder am I do something wrong or YT video processing sux ? Someone gave me a tip - to avoid it - record in 60fps. I said - great idea but I cannot do this in low light conditions. I am looking for some gold solution for my chanell. Now my render setup is: 2.7K Max bitrate 50 and average is 45. Using NVENC which allowed me to avoid half of quality probem and speed up rendering process. I set up a render to HIGH profile and thats it. I am still not happy about output quallity after KZfaq upload. Do you have some solutions ? Thx very much.

@MountMediaChannel 2 жыл бұрын

Not really - I don't use Sony Vegas, so I'm not familiar with the export settings. But KZfaq will aggressively compress your videos after uploading. 60fps in my opinion is a bad idea. The only thing you can really do is to upload in a high resolution (4k).

Hero 10. things are very shaky with the camera being carefully held, trees flicker on and off, one second there is a tree, then it disappears, objects are flickering on and off with a slow pan of the camera. objects apppear to jump in the frame with no relation to each other. like some objects appear solid and other objects jump around. I have clear video when the camera is perfectly still. but very slight movements and things jump around far more than they should. and Ive tried all the settings that are supposed to prevent that. there shouldn't be any settings to cause trees to flicker on and off like they are there and then disappear. camera is brand new out of the box. high speed sd card, played directly on my laptop, not uploaded. high bitrate, all the best settings.
