Hi,
I'm using Racechrono on Iphone, and I've got a GoPro HERO9.
I've read this tutorial:
https://racechrono.com/article/504This seems a bit outdated, as the attached screenshots don't have Hero 9 and newer cameras in the "Add Camera" dialog, however the actual app does that those.
When I choose "GoPro HERO 9, 10, 11" in the "Add Camera" dialog, I can see my camera name (I've previously paired it in the Quik app), though I don't see "Use Wi-Fi only" mentioned in the article above. I don't see a configuration dialog for the camera once it was added too. So I've just add a camera and that's it.
Then before the session, I hit "Start", go to the "Camera" tab, and the phone asks to join the camera wifi network. I hit join and after some time it looks like the connection is lost.
All in all, session data was written properly, but there were no videos recorded, and there's also no videos in the GoPro itself.
What could be the problem? Am I missing something from the tutorial?
Thanks

When you go to the Camera page, the camera preview is initiated, and Wi-Fi connection is attempted. You can disable that by clicking the "eye" icon on the camera control box.
Many phones fail to connect GoPro camera with 5 GHz Wi-Fi setting. It will be fixed only by setting the camera Wi-Fi to 2.4 GHz. But if the Wi-Fi works with the Quik app, it should work on RaceChrono too.
Next step would be to click the record button on the camera page. This will save a sync point in RaceChrono where the video file should be, after it's imported or downloaded.
