Having issues with the Go Pro Media Mod for the Hero 10 Black, warranty replacements, and why you should look somewhere else for a solution. Like the older go pro mic adapter and a cage like the Ulanzi vlogging cage with the mic adapter box and the mic adapter from Go Pro.

sorry to hear that ... I bought a hero 10 and just bought the media. Pluged it all in and works. Hope you work it out..

Hello, thanks for your video! I have the same problem as well like a lot of people I see. I don't understand how GoPro can't find a solution! At least you can use the media mod by resetting the presets (which is not a solution I agree) but it doesn't work for me neither...😢😢

@TechNickRides Жыл бұрын

Ugh what a bummer man. I’m sorry to hear your having issues. I’ve got the media mod with my GoPro 8 and it acts up for me sometimes too, not as bad as not detecting it with the camera though 😕. You may be better ahead getting that older audio adapter like you said and avoiding the media mod. When you remove the battery door to use it for media mod it no longer makes the camera waterproof. I’ve thought about that with mine and hope I don’t get caught in a downpour while recording. Great review 👍

Mine does not. The only issue I see is that sometimes you get a pop or a crackle noise when the adapter plug wiggles

Thanks was thinking about getting one. I think it must be used for one specific camera. Saw a video where it was being used for a motor cross gentleman and he had no problem. He was also using a a power pack with it so he could get 5 to 6 hours of video time.. Maybe needing the extra power to work. Again thanks for your vide.

Hi mate, good video, exactly the same problem I have but mine will not recognise the media mod at all, so I bought a new media mod ..still the same…going back and forth with GoPro support but think I will just get a mic adapter and be done with it 👍 Cheers mate

OMG I can’t believe this. I bought mine like two years ago and I thought it was all me. Same issues. I have been literally trying to fix this issue for two years. I finally got fed up and looked everywhere and came across this video. I’m not sure what to do. I doubt GoPro would warranty after so long so disappointed..

Impossible for me. I'm traveling the world throughout Asia. So I constantly move. How would I order a mic adapter when I don't have a fixed set address. And good luck on a random south east Asia store having that exact mic adapter 😭

@jimmywooten956 6 ай бұрын

I have a gopro 8 and bought a new Media Mod...it worked as it should ONCE! Camera does not recognize the Media Mod now. I have reset the settings at least 3 times...nothing! but the sound recording seems louder than with just the camera speaker. Go figure...when I get thru using this camera for doing some classic car "for sale" videos, it will be gone. The whole system has raised my blood pressure by 60-70 points several times.

@guyd8634 10 ай бұрын

Just for the record, I have a Media Mod with a new Hero11 and they work properly in all settings, allowing mic selection (front, back, internal).

@zublacus Жыл бұрын

This video is sad, but awesome. My issue with the Media Mod is, I start recording and 20 seconds or up to 2 minutes later, it simply freezes. The GoPro freezes and locks up. I have label mic receiver mounted and I have to disassemble all of it and pull the battery to unlock it. I thought it was the SD card, but no...both work fine. I can record and record without the media mod, but once I use it...Frozen. I think I'm just going to wipe my hands and use your links to buy other options to use external sound.

@RebelScoutmaster Жыл бұрын

Yeah it was a blessing for them to refund me. I used the mic adapter the other day and if you turn wind reduction off there is no problems. That cage is a bit heavy though.

@SteelHorseTexasTwangExchange Жыл бұрын

I haven’t heard good things about the Media mod. I don’t remember who it was exactly but I’ve seen others say had same or similar problems when this setup came out. I assumed GoPro had fixed that issue by now.

@RebelScoutmaster Жыл бұрын

Oh it’s still an issue for sure. Don’t get me wrong the camera works for me flawlessly. Just when you try to add the mod is when it gets sketchy.

What mic adaptor cable do I need, cos this doesn't have a 3.5 jack right?

@RebelScoutmaster 5 ай бұрын

You need the GoPro external adapter that plugs into the USB-c and it has a mic adapter on that.

Correct me if I'm wrong but this adapter won't allow me to use 2 mics? I have the rode wireless go ii microphones. I need to use BOTH wireless microphones. How can I use both with that adapter?

My media worked great until my KZfaq channel started making money. Them the camera failed and GoPro replaced it and immediately after the media mod stopped working just like yours. Im expecting the Small Rig cage and audio adapter this week in hopes of never having these issues again. Plus the media mod cage makes no sense when changing batteries or dealing with heating concerns. Also never transfer data from the camera to the computer with the media mod attached because it overheated the internals of my previous camera. I now remove the mod, then I remove the battery from the GoPro and transfer files that way without issues. I also learned to never charge the battery inside of the GoPro because its not a regulated charging point and will overheat the battery and internals of the camera.🤦

My solution was to get my money back and buy the Ulanzi Go pro mount that has the mic adapter built in and the mic adapter. So far that seems to work. Like I said in the video they sent me a totally new camera and a new Media mod, and the issue still occurred. Now I have to deal with popping or crackling in the audio. lol. Good luck sir!

I have 2 media mods on hero 10's one stopped working with the rode mics and i have a battery pack on the usb-c connection. worked a few times then no more.The other mod I'm lucky when they do connect but just never know when it is working till i check the footage. Hero 10's have great ideas but are not reliable.I will never buy another Gopro product. I will be testing out the DJI OSMO 4 ACTION CAM and see how they do.

I just came along this video because I have the same issue. On my channel I made a video about how I had found the perfect set up for me...the Media Mod and the Movo Mic. Worked great for a few months. I don't understand why mine worked for months and then went haywire. Then, out of the blue, no sound in my videos. Made a video about that as well. Noticed the GoPro wasn't always detecting. Sometimes I would have no audio meter but later I found out it actually recorded the sound. I don't understand that. Got in touch with GoPro. Very unimpressed with their customer service. After doing their silly human tricks, and being told they have never heard of this issue (ahem), and they want me to ship mine back so they can replace it. I've sent it. I wish they would send a replacement immediately and then charge if you didn't return yours. I'm going through the same stuff. Also, I was already using the Beta Labs software to get around their errors about using an external battery.

You may have to do a factory reset to get it to work again. Which means all your settings get wiped out. I ended just sending mine back and getting a refund because it isnt worth the hassle. They should do better than this!
