GoPro HELP! How I Fixed Laggy Footage

Hi man!
What if i record in 2.7K 60fps, BUT using max lens (so the image looks more like a square)? Is this consider as most compatible file?

Hello Thanks for all this info great video ! What I did was download the mp4s from the Gopro app to my iPhone then airdrop to Macbook then used for editing. It did take time but worth it !

I'm sure mine has a setting where u can tell it to record in 264 or Hv as priority

This is great info. thanks

Thankyou brother.. very informative ❤

you are a life saver!!!! almost thought my SD card was corrupted

WOOOW ! I'VE LOOKED FOR THIS EXPLANATION FOR 2 DAYS STRAIGHT ! Thank you so much.

4k 30fps is what i want to use but for some season it comes out laggy also. It seems it has to be 1080p only

Thanks man! This is Kees from the Netherlands. I am travelling with my new GoPro 9 and old MacBook Pro. Most footage looks awful. I was very disappointed must say. Now there is hope on the horizon. When I get back I will try on my newer iMac. If that doesn't work I will use Handbrake. I used Handbrake before for other projects. God Bless

who the hell uses an iphone i mac

excellent video. fixed my problem. thanks for the share!

What about if you are live streaming to twitch on the go and your live stream is choppy?

thank you so much i didn't know it was my computer lol i was going through so many settings and SD cards wondering what i was doing wrong.

Thanks for the tip.

Very helpful video, my go pro videos kept buffering when playing them from my nas to pc, I can play them smooth now after converting them, thank you!!

Thank you!! ♥♥♥

sir, question, how do I know if the file is formatted hevc or h264? it seems all files have .mp4 extensions. thank you!

I love the honesty.

I have a lot of footage. What should I do? Download the handbrake software?

Thanks

it helped!😇

i have newest mac ever.. but my gopro sucks.. i was doing video from left to right.. and some 2-3 milliseconds are too fast and it goes normal again..

eventhough if i watch it in gopro.. same..

i'm using hero 9 but before it was good and its 4k footage was also good. but now the 4k footage is little bit blurry. any solution??

My computer is fine but this is still happening, could it just be that my memory card has to slow of a read and write speed?

Hello, do you know why my gopro 9 is recording separate audio files alongside my audio/ video files? I would ike to find out how to stop this so I dont keep running out of space on my SD card. Thanks

Thank you!!!

It got me to sort my choppy footage this. However in the camera preferences menu on my hero10 you have the option of switching between HEVC and HEVC+H264
I set mine to H264 4K 30fps. It works fine now.
Be much better if they (GoPro) told you all this 😂
I’m going to try 5.3K now using the setting above. I’ll report back if it’s choppy/lagging or not. This video definitely sent me in the right direction. 👍 cheers

what do i put the but rate to?

will it work oh GoPro hero 8?

Thank you so much for this! Yesterday I went to the beautiful Savo Island, and when I went through the footage, it was all laggy. Now it's all fixed. THANK YOU!

I have a hp laptop 14

I tried editing my GoPro video on da Vinci resolve and software kept lagging and crashing

I am using a gopro hero 7 device, recently I've shot some video on 2.7k 60fps, the video freezes after some time but the audio continues to record. I cannot preview the file even on my gopro, I'm using a recommended sd card. Is there any way I can retrieve the footage?

thank for the info !! helped a lot !

So much bullshit from GoPro, don't they get millions to just make things easier for the clients,such as just being able to film and edit without a long freaking downloading from here to there

no longer works

thank you.your the best!

Thank you so much

I have a hp 15 4gb is that good for this also?

Thanks for the help, champion man.

thanks, that did the trick!

Ima try this thank you 🐐

Thanks.

Thanks for video!
I have a very strong computer and I can process 4K/60 video from DJI Mini 2 without any problems and the video is absolutely fluid, but the same resolution from GoPro 9 (so 4K/60) is still laggy. I record manual, shutter speed 60, 4K/30, 5500K, ISO100 (maximum also 100), Flat color, medium sharpness.
Video compression has no effect, so the same thing happens no matter what compression I use ...
Can you please give me some advice to solve this problem?

thanks so so much , i freaked out today , this video saved my life dude

I'm so pissed! I have a gopro 9 and I did record at 1080 p 60 fps and I still have choppy footage! And I purposely bought a computer that I believed was set up to handle 4k. I have 16 gb RAM, AMD Ryzen 5 1600 6 core processor, 3.20 ghz, 64 bit operating system. So frustrating I have no clue what I should do?

THANK YOU! It may be a slow solution, but I'll be able to use the footage of my son that otherwise appeared to be unusable..

I recorded 4k 60fps and then I tried to edit it on premiere pro on my computer and all the footage was lagging. I thought it was the computer not being able to handle premiere pro. Then I tried in a recent mac and everything was lagging too. I searched for it and found this video! Thank you! I will give it a go.
