Removed support for GoPro HERO 4 and older

Any chance you could leave the GoPro HERO 4 support in place? I still use those sensors, despite age and plan to continue using them for many years to come.

Edit - My request is targeted towards iOS release.

I've tried with my DJI video that has GPS data direct off the SD card and a import from the DJI Mimo app but it doesn't give me the option to sync, I just get the normal +- options.

The files definately has GPS data as the DJI Mimo, lets me turn on the dashboard and the data is there.

I also noticed that if I put the raw file intio DCIM/Racechrono, it still does an import/copy somewhere to link it?

aol

hasole When you use the "+ Add new file" option, the file is synced automatically immediately after adding. It should say "linked to ... " on the list. (If not then it's not working, and please contact me through email or website contact form, for me to get the sample file).

The "Automatic sync" button has been removed, as the app does it automatically now after adding.

I'm not sure what you mean with DCIM/RaceChrono ?

hasole

aol Thanks. When I add the file it says not synchronised. I'll send you an email with the files.

Thanks

hasole Fixed in v10.1.1, available in Play Store in couple of hours.

dunit121 Sorry, it no longer makes sense to keep it. It takes work to maintain the support and keep it working order, same with Android <9 support. You can still keep using the camera and link the videos to your session. Just the remote control is gone.

dustinsterk

dunit121 I second this...there are many guys that are still running Hero 3+ devices. The camera still work perfect and no need to upgrade and turn into E-waste. Can you just keep the code in place and call it 'un-maintaned'?

hasole

aol Thank you! I went and got some more data today for testing 🙂

aol

hasole Send me samples if you run in to bugs 🙂

My license verification fails after updating to 10.1.1, try signing with my goole account but said invalid app license, is it my issue?

aol

viewtiful Custom rom, rooted phone, or an unlocked boot loader? The new Play Integrity API (used for checking licenses) does not allow any of those. Please contact support through the website, and I will arrange you a license.

viewtiful

aol I quite the BETA program and install the stable version, working now.

aol

viewtiful The beta 10.1 uses Play Integrity API as new, and we are not going back. So we need to fix the issue through support.

viewtiful

aol I did unlock the boot loader, thank you I have contacted support through the website.

aol

The iOS beta is now out too, let me know through the website feedback form, if you want to test.

Ensky

aol I also cannot install the app for my bootloader unlocked pixel 5. The play store shows "this app is only available for your other devices"

hasole

Thank you for the latest update for Android.
Files can now live in the media store under Movies/RaceChrono instead of DCIM/RaceChrono which means that Google Photo's won't back up the videos 🙂

Confirmed copy of SD card into Movies/RaceChrono links to my session after importing it from the Media Store in Add files.

Thank you for this.

aol

dustinsterk No that's not how we operate. Everything must be tested periodically. Otherwise we'd end up with a garbage app. The code was removed as we needed a major overhaul on the GoPro remote control feature, to make it work better.

You can still use your cameras, and the videos on your sessions, just not the remote control feature.

dunit121

aol If testing is the burden, do you need help creating automated testing for HERO 4 support? If so, let's talk.

hasole

Confirmed if you have multiple dji gps videos for one session. It links them all correctly when you add it.

Although 16gb per file makes it hard on the phone.
