Gopro 11 w/media mod stop recording audio when plug the usb-c

Hi everyone!

I have 3 cameras, 9 black, 10 black, and 11 Black, also I have two media mods. The problems started when I bought the 11 Black, the media mod stopped recording audio when the USB-C (for charging) was connected. And it's randomly, I tested the same media mod with the other cameras without issues, I tested with different USB-C cables, but 🤷🏻‍♂️.

Also, the problem is only when you start recording with the USB connected, if you press rec and then connect the cable, the audio works fine..

Any idea? I think I have the last firmware (v02.30.00)

Best external Mic for Vlogging with GoPro12?

Hi all :)
I have the GoPro 12 Creator edition and want to use it for running videos and as a "studio" camera for my indoor workouts with kettlebells and possibly talking head videos for Youtube. I'm lost with microphones. I have the Hollyland Lark M1 Wireless Lavalier Microphone, but it sounds terrible...Do you have any suggestions for a good mic that sounds good outdoors & indoors?

For following somebody running in circles?

What's available for following someone around a track from the center? I'm thinking something like a merry-go-round or a LazySusan with a smaller footprint than a normal tripod.

Which older GoPro model would be a good buy second hand?

Im new to action cameras and am considering getting one. The usage will be for walking tours at night in well lit areas. But my budget is around $150.

Where I live there are lots of second hand Go Pros available in the price range from $200 to $300. Which model would be a good one to get for my needs if I can find one in good condition?

11 12 or 13 for dirtbike/motorcycle content

I have really wanted to buy a gopro for a while to use while I ride dirtbike or when I buy a road bike. Or even just random things, and with black friday deals coming up on Amazon I am deciding to jump on one. Im really torn between the 11 12 and 13, although the 12 does not have gps speed which is making it not seem like a great deal (I won't use it all the time but it would be nice to have the option). Especially since i can get the 13 for not much more.

So my question is, if I should buy the Hero 13 Black Accessory bundle for $350 and buy one of the 50 piece accessory kits + a 256gb microsd card (so I run out of battery before storage) or one of the bundles for the hero 12 (300 to 315) + the same 50 piece accessory kit and a ssd or a hero 11 bundle for $280 + the same stuff as the other ones

If anyone could also help recommend a good chin mount for my dirtbike helmet + a good case for the gopro it would be much appreciated!
I found this stuff that has good reviews but not sure if yall have opinions on them, protector, screen protector, accessory kit, chin mount

Thank you!

Best GoPro for skiers who have never used one before

Hi folks, was wondering what the best GoPro would be for a couple who are going skiing and want to record our times on the slopes. I’m happy with cheap alternatives, but I know they can be faulty in the winter weather and want to make sure they’ll always record when we’re skiing.

Any thoughts? Appreciate any and all info!

Moisture in replacement Hero 12

I just used my Hero 12 for the first time - it was raining and there now seems to be moisture inside the front screen. The unit is a replacement from GoPro as the previous had a power fault. Should I take it up with them? I’m sure the previous one didn’t have this issue…

Hero 5 not connecting to GPS

I have an old hero 5 black that after some years of not using it ended up not connecting to GPS anymore. There´s any way to fix it or at least other way to have GPS data? The camera working well, just the GPS is broken.

Which is the oldest GoPro that supports sleep in time lapse?

There's a building at my work that's going to be demolished, and I want to grab a long time lapse - my 7 can do no longer than 60s between frames, which is too fast, my 12 has the ability to sleep between frames so I could set it to get a frame every 30s but I use it way too much, so I was wondering if a 10 or 11 supports sleeping - I could pick one up quite cheaply and lock it in a room for the time needed.

GoPro Hero 13 Black Creator Kit

Is this suitable for Lapland? The camera is waterproof but is the attachments? Otherwise would it be best to get the Hero13 with attachments such as LED light?

3.5mm mic w 6” cable

iso a mic similar to a small wearable mic but that only has about a 6” long cable. I am running it from my GoPro on the chin of my motorcycle helmet to just inside the helmet where my mouth is and I don’t want to have to coil up and hide multiple feet of wire. Any help on finding one or recommendations would be much appreciated!

Bundles

I was trying to buy this tonight is there a bundle that includes everything, there's one on Amazon for 449 buy has a bunch of unnecessary crap. Is there a bundle for lenses? I was also looking at the hero 13 any reason to go for the 12 or lower? Did the upgrades from the 12 make it worth more?

Footage from Hero 11coming out low quality on windows laptop

As the title states, the footage I capture in my hero 11 is very grainy and shaky. It’s just very low quality. I’ve changed the settings and watch so many tutorials. When I view it on the quick app, the quality is fine but I need to view it on my computer to edit the footage. I mainly use the GoPro for hiking, biking, running, and rifle competition. Is it the computer, or GoPro, and is there anyway to resolve this?

Any advice on recording cockpit audio with the Hero 12?

I bought a split audio cable with an aux jack (I used an adapter so I could plug into usb-c), and the sound was still the outside engine noise. Do I need a media mod for this or can I try something else? It’s a Cessna 172 with a Garmin 430 and I use Bose A20s. It seems off to me that the older models worked with the cords but I have to buy a $75 case so I can record external audio.

GoPro Hero 13 VS DJI Action 5 pro

First of all, hello. I would like to ask for an action camera for Christmas but I am torn between the latest GoPro Hero 13 and the brand new DJI Action 5 Pro. I have observed comparisons on YouTube and I am very mixed. I have the impression that DJI have surpassed themselves and become the market leaders, but the 5.3K from GoPro would perhaps be more suited to my use... It would be exclusively for filming my ski sessions at using a harness and exclusively my pole trips. So for a rather bright landscape, the best possible stabilization, good battery life and the best video quality, what would you impartially recommend to me? Thank you in advance, have a good evening, best regards.

GoPro Hero13 Log mode 10bit video problem

When shooting video in Log mode, the color depth remains 8 bits. It is impossible to change the color depth in the settings. At the same time, in the standard shooting mode, you can shoot 10 bits. How can I fix the situation? Resetting camera didn't work. I am on the latest firmware. Installing Labs firmware did not help.

I couldn't find any solution on the GoPro support forum website.

EDIT: I just talked with GoPro support, and they said they are aware of the problem and are working on a solution. We just need to wait for a new firmware update that will hopefully resolve the issue.

I need to run a GoPro timelapse for 2 weeks.

The company I work for is doing a 2 week construction project. They need me to run a GoPro Timelapse for the entirety of the the project day and night for two weeks. I’ll power the GoPro Hero 13 via a wall outlet/extension chord and a power brick. But what size sd card would I need to run a 4K Timelapse video taking a photo every second for two weeks? Any other advice?
