Just got my Mavic, flew around today, took 4 videos. I plugged the USB cable into the mavic and copied the files to my PC. I tried viewing the files in VLC and I just get some green flashes and garbage. Tried opening them in windows movie maker and it shows them as just no video. Running Win7. Any ideas?
Thanks
 
Did you film in 4k?
Is your computer's processor fast enough to handle 4k video?
 
Does the GPU for the laptops video handle 4K? The CPU has very little to do with this, it's all dependent on the video chipset.
You might want to search google for the tech specs for your laptop.

It was the laptop. Files play fine on my desktop. I was assuming that if the laptop was not good enough, then I could play the video it would just be jumpy, maybe pausing while buffering, that kind of stuff. was not expecting pure garbage. Live and Learn
