Glitchy video footage?

mtnrider16 · May 8, 2017

Anyone go to edit their video after a shoot and find it glitchy? It was a very calm day, and I wasn't even flying full speed. But the footage glitches/ skips several times. Is there anyway to best avoid this issue? Thanks.

Sounds like a card read/write error to me.

What are you using?

Mate yes! I have seen that yesterday in my footage.
Almost 80% of my footage have mini jumps, like "pulsating" I wonder if its a bug on the focusing.

I was initially using the SD card included with the mavic but have recently upgraded to a San disk something-rather 32gig. Wasn't cheap

Luckily not all of my footage has been like this, but I'm not sure if I would call it a focusing issue. During the video I don't see it lose focus at anytime, but rather like you said, "mini jump". Are you using the included SD card also?

mine would glitch when ever I pan. it was the card. you need the faster read/write card

Okay, well that's good news! I just recently upgraded the card and haven't flown with it yet so I'll check back and see if the issues been resolved, thanks for your input!

I am using a Sandisk extreme (supposed to be ok for 4k) the included one is just the barely minimal to record in 4k
