Now Myk for GoPro is the the only app to support HEVC on iPhone 7 and below (iPhone 8-X support HEVC natively). The HEVC videos will be saved to the Myk data container, NOT the iPhone photo library, since iPhone 7 and below cannot natively support HEVC video.
Apple Watch wearers now have a GoPro remote control on their wrists. On Thursday, GoPro updated its iOS app to integrate a new app for Apple Watch, turning the Watch into a remote control for the Wi-Fi equipped GoPro cameras. You can now use the Apple Watch app to start or stop recording, adjust the settings on the GoPro, and tap to add a HiLight (basically a bookmark) to a certain section of video to make it easier to find in the editing room. The new Apple Watch app also acts as a remote viewfinder to frame your shots before recording, and you can add a Complication, or shortcut, on the face of your Watch to hit record and capture those easy-to-miss action shots. GoPro’s Apple Watch app was first demonstrated during. In addition to Apple Watch integration, the update also brought new features to the iOS app, like scrolling through video to find and save a specific frame as a still image. GoPro’s iOS app can be used to start or stop recording, transfer video files, and adjust the settings.
These updates will certainly come in handy when controlling Karma, GoPro’s forthcoming drone. On Thursday, the the name of its camera quadcopter that will launch sometime in 2016. Karma will presumably use the iPhone and Apple Watch similarly as a remote control.
I have Hero3+ Black Edition. For now I cannot shoot or even configure the camera when it is connected to a notebook with a USB Cable. When I connect my camera to a notebook with a USB Cable, a charging battery icon and a USB icon appear on a camera screen. Both buttons do nothing, are inactive (Shutter/Select Button and Power/Mode Button). Only Wi-Fi On/Off Button works.
In addition, it is not possible to configure the camera with GoPro phone app – setting icons are disabled. Moreover, the phone app does not even show a current picture from the camera when the camera is connected with USB Cable (I use GoPro Android app on Google Nexus 5). My question is: is it possible to use a camera when it is connected to pc/notebook with a USB cable? Is it somewhere configurable in the camera?
My goal is: I want to shoot and immediately see the result on a screen of my notebook. At least from MicroSD card. For now I make a picture or video, turn the camera off, take out MicroSD card, put it into a notebook and only now have a possibility to see the result.
It is cumbersome. No, the GoPro cannot be controlled over a USB connection.
If the GoPro is plugged into a computer and switched on, it will go into USB mode. This lets you download photos and videos from the camera. But you cannot take photos or video in this mode. For the Hero3 or Hero3+ (or older models with a wifi Bacpac) they can be controlled over wifi. There are GoPro apps for Android and iOS or Windows Phone.
There isn't any official GoPro software for controlling from a PC, though there are several options, eg:. (Windows). (windows, Linux, MacOS). (Windows 8) Or the GoPro essentially works as a web server, so you can just connect and control it with a web browser. So these would let you control the camera from a PC, and get a preview image, and download photos etc over the wifi.
