    Tablet

    Either an Android Operating System or Apple IOS, but the tablet processor MUST be 64 bit. I tried installing the DJI Fly App on my Microsoft Surface Pro (Windows 10 ) and the App will not install with Windows. Not sure what version of Android it must be or IOS come to that. My tablet is an...

    4K video from Mini2 refuses to play on PC

    Hi Johnmcl7, Just got back from a trip to see my daughter in Bristol United Kingdom. I flew over and (About 2 miles away) recorded some 4K video over 'The Clifton Suspension Bridge' Built/Completed in the 1860's by 'Isambard Kingdom Brunel' I checked out the computer performance in Task Manager...

    4K video from Mini2 refuses to play on PC

    Ashyt16, I downloaded the prog you recommended 'Media Player Classic Black Edition' And low and behold my 4K video plays reasonably smoothly in this on my computer now. I took the drone up over some common land here this afternoon and shot some video in 2.7K and I am really pleased with the...

    4K video from Mini2 refuses to play on PC

    Hi DJM68, It is not that my PC is struggling to edit 4K I have not got to the stage of trying to edit it yet, my PC is incapable of playing 4K video as written in my first post. It is looking more and more like the first thing that I thought, GPU/Graphics Card bottle necking. Fast CPU AMD Ryzen...

    4K video from Mini2 refuses to play on PC

    A typical 7200 RPM HDD will deliver a read/write speed of 80-160MB/s. (Maybe higher in a raid) On the other hand, a typical SSD will deliver read/write speed of between 200 MB/s to 550 MB/s. While an M.2 can deliver read speeds exceeding 3500MBs. M.2 is the way to go as long as your Mobo has...

    4K video from Mini2 refuses to play on PC

    Thanks Johnmcl7, Will take a look at the CPU & GPU usage while playing back 4K later on today. Boy the sensible money is on the Graphics card being below par. Just looking at the: GeForce GTX 1050 Ti. 4GB GDDR5 Supports up to 8K display @60Hz. Around £200 (270 USD $) Should give me plenty of...

    4K video from Mini2 refuses to play on PC

    Hi Johnmcl7, Thanks for the heads up on updating my first post with regard to my processor model. 👍 My thoughts are now down to GPU/Graphics Card to slow and old technology or not enough Ram (16 Gigs of 3200 DDR4 onboard at present )

    Put the SD card back in the Drone and switch every thing on leave it switched on for a couple of minutes and the software inside the drone will automatically correct the issue , I have had this a couple of times myself. Good on DJI they think of everything

    4K video from Mini2 refuses to play on PC

    Sorry 'My Bad' My chip is the AMD Ryzen 5 5600X (Not 5 5600G) No onboard Graphics on the 5 5600X as its a out and out Gaming CPU. Most gamers want 100% dedicated graphics that only a Full Graphics card can give. Below in bold is cut and pasted from the web Only AMD's APUs, or Accelerated...

    Ahhhh! the Old Iron Lady Huhh! She ruled with a rod of iron and f-----d up a few things, but all-in-all she did OK. Enough of politics, I think that might have been one of Maggie's comments as well LOL! You were an old Devonion, love Devon & Cornwall next time I go West I will take my drone...
