I'm pretty sure my bright 3600 lumen headlights got me noticed. They may have been noticed sooner, if I had twice as many!
yep they are. Then I saw "slow mo pumpkins patch" for some reason I had time lapse in my head of pumpkins growing... That would be cool - I would comment on Vimeo but didn't know if you need an account. Did you edit all the vids on XP or 7?
It's a slow mo-function on my cheapo action camera.... I considered doing a timelapse of their growing out in the garden... but there's so much to do when I get there and it's so fiddly to set up, I haven't - here's a very small timelapse I made of them sprouting some years ago. It has to be very small, in case this website crashes lol.
That reminds me: Must disable comments, because then it becomes social media
That was on 7, but it could have been done on XP - Vimeo no entiende XP! Niet! Access denied...
Is this forum not social media & you per se are very sociable... was that time lapse of a bonsai tree lol. Strawberries growing would be good.
When people get miffed here, they simply go away for a time - algorithmic antisocial pushing and amplification of extremely negative content is largely absent... I don't bother with anywhere else.
I'm still eating the wild strawberries I planted out there, and that's quite astonishing - domesticated varieties produce for one or two short periods in a year, wild is continuous. The resolution of timelapse and other animation is only limited by that of the photographic cameras used, which is higher than video - it'll be possible to see old stop start animation (or Wallace and Grommet) being released in Xk in future without the need to upscale.
They can go from that to 30+ft wide within 8 weeks. What is world needs is trillions of genetically modified ultra-giant sequoia which grow overnight, that we can all hollow out sections and live inside; cycle over the interconnecting branches of.
Pushed the boat out a bit and bought a GoPro Hero Black 7. Almost bought an Osmo Action 3, but reports of poor waterproofing and fogging put me off, also it won't do a damn thing unless you activate using their app. The Osmo inspired little confidence for use in our British climate, and the 7 seems to be mostly bug free. If it's not up to snuff, it will be rejected!
Cool - am on hero 4 - GP do use a high bitrate so let us know if that causes any issues in editing on low spec hardware/software. My 4 core lappy did not improve my editing experience much it's still choppy in real time play back although less crashing and better response times overall - I will have a look at editor you linked in the other thread.
For now I'm sticking to 1080p for ease of editing, smaller and more manageable file size and longer battery life. For bike night recording, I'm going to try:
Make a note of the settings before changing in VLC - try changing the output to DirectX? If you're talking about choppy playback within the editor, there may be an assignable output module? If DirectX is available, it works better on lower powered hardware.
LosslessCut looks potentially useful to export short clips at original quality, for later use.
I think I've tried but I will look again & play with the settings. I got playback mode on scaling 360p - 720p on desktop & it's smooth as butter, sadly I use a crappy wireless MS keyboard & TV for the desktop so editing is not the most ergonomic + it's 1.5 meters from chair to TV. rendering however; network everything across & bang its done quick than the file transfer.
I wonder how much these will cost, and what beast of a phone it'll take to drive them? CES 2023:

I recently got a DJI Osmo Action 3 and haven’t had any fogging issues, even used in heavy rain, snow and under water.
I found my firefly had some fogging in the summer but not in winter and only on 1+ journeys
I feared the Red Light of Death, reported on the DJI forums, for which there is no cure. Also on the earlier units, there was a lack of sharpness, which may have been fixed since by a firmware update. The Hero 7 Blacks are rock solid on the waterproofing front, and the firmware is quite mature - I'll see how it goes. So far, I'm not impressed at all by photos in low light, even "Superphotos" aka HDR are not good compared to proper cameras (I didn't think they would be). Here's it's best (also cleaned up in post) attempt of a snap at my attempt at making Natto using TVP (is it TVP Natto even possible? I'll know in 5 hours) in a yoghurt maker. I got dozens of Kg of TVP in 2020 as part of my pre-Covid doomsday prep (TVP doesn'tactually have a use by date if kept in airtight containers), and it's almost inedible - hence fermentation for Vitamin K. I'll get out there for some night video cycling soon. Even my phone takes better close-ups. But by jiminy, nattokinase crystals are forming!
High bitrate for such low grade action camera footage should be illegal - they're not real cameras! XP found the camera but couldn't copy over big video files (it didn't register as mass storage), managed copying over photos. If you delete files without their software, this confuses the camera's file system terminally, and it won't record anything properly again, unless you format the SD card in camera.
Go one do it join the sheep... I understand the early fears but I can not get it several years on, do explain your fears, I fear win 11 because I will need to spend 700£ for a new AMD 6 core monster which I am looking forward to for gaming assuming these Energy bill don't swallow up my savings. What is TVP Natto??
TVP:
I've always been a late adopter of OSs - I wait until the majority of bugs have been squished. Thing is, now that Win 10 looks half decent (found myself strangely tempted a few months ago lol), everyone will be forced onto Windows 11. There are workarounds for the TPM chip requirement, which invalidate Microsoft's warranty.
True - there are macro lenses for the 7, as well as oodles of other toys such as the anamorphic lens, ND and CPL filters etc. Waiting on two additional batteries, the GoPro dual charger and waterproof case. I know it's supposed to be very waterproof, but a case calms my nerves and protects it from impacts. Overheating could be an issue with a case, as the 7 does get hot.
