video issues

[frankiez]

I am having some issues with my camera. (I believe it is the camera). If you look at the video at about the 1:45 mark you will see the picture jump a little. Also at the 2:30 mark and after, the video seems to skip ahead a little every now and then. Any help would be appreciated.

Is this the raw video from your SD card... or from your tablet/phone? The first one at 1:45 looks like a gimbal jerk, not video.... this was right as you started moving forward very quickly... try smoother on the sticks?

The second one is not as obvious... if this video is from your tablet or phone cached recording then I'd say it was just a downlink video feed interruption. Happens all the time... But if this is from the video recorded on the SD card on the Mavic, then hummmmmm I dunno...

Thanks,Cactus. It is the video playback from my smartphone. I guess the thing for me to do is to see whats on the SD card in the Mavic itself. I will check it out. Thanks for your help.

Another thing I noticed was whenever I first power up and get the status screen (with firmware status, etc.) It always says under VIDEO TRANSMISSION CHANNEL ---- poor. What does that mean?

I also get that every time.... wait for everything to connect and settle down... wait for the GPS lock (the nice girl voice says: "Homepoint has been recorded, please check it on the map")... then after all that check it again and most likely that will change to "GOOD". You can also see the status bars on top of the app screen... one set of bars is for the video downlink and the other is the R/C control strength.
