GoPro Multi-Camera Timecode Sync - Demo and how to align clips in Premiere Pro

- This is a demo showing the accuracy of gopro's time sync QR code using the gopro labs firmware. I also show a workflow in premiere to align your clips in sync on a timeline with blank space representing time between clips.
I am testing with a Hero10 and Hero11 black.

Cameras can be calibrated between models, using TCAL metadata. Timecode precision is generally within a 30fps frame if the camera remains on. If the camera turns off, the frame precision is lost, but the second precision remains. This is why in your testing you saw a range 0.5 to 1.5 of error. If is was the same camera model (without calibration) the error would be +- 0.03 (frame error) and +- 0.5 (1 second) when powered off.
Thanks for explaining it. At this point the second precision is managable and the weak link in my fishing setup is my insta360 X3. I am hoping GoPro has a new 360 camera out soon that might be a good replacement since it might also support this time sync. I don't dare buy the current max where September historically seems to be GoPro release month.
@@mainelyhobbies MAX does support time sync too. ;)
Ahh but I just found out the MAX doesn't support loop recording so it becomes useless for fishing :( I can't win on the 360 camera for fishing.
I don't know if you have tried to sync the X3 since this video was made but if you have I'm sure you notice that the X3 has gaps between "Chapters" of 11 to 15 seconds. This is unacceptable for long duration recording.
None of the GoPro HERO cameras have these gaps.
I usually use loop mode but yes I noticed the same after 30 minutes it creates a gap and starts a new file.
This is a great example of why not to use the GoPro for anything critical, it will always let you down.
I just set my gopros to HDR for a fishing trip yesterday... It ruined the footage. HDR from the Hero12 is a contender for reddits /r shittyhdr group... Shadows are boosted TOO much and highlights being brought down adds ugly halos around dark stuff and it looks so fake. That feature is a gimmick for normal use.
@@mainelyhobbies mine froze up (picture freeze) up in Alaska on a dog sled adventure. Ruined. Now using osmo action 4 and it can be jam synced via timecode.
Insta360 cameras have been rock solid for me as well... Somehow the insta360 X3 is able to record 5.7k 360 video with stablization for 6 hours straight and not overheat at all.
