GoPro Hero 5 takes 11 seconds to turn off [ New ]

[fastpeak44420]

Just like the title says: my GoPro hero 5 takes almost 11 seconds to turn off. Even when I don't record anything. My camera is on the latest firmware. I already tried re-installing the latest firmware and a factory reset but nothing helped. Here is a video so you can see what I mean (btw: it's horribly long...)

Hi @fastpeak44420, 

May I know how do you use it? 

Do you turn it on first then record a video?

Or do you use Quick Capture feature?

Please let us know so that we can check.

Thanks,

-Jay

Just like I said in the thread: I didn't record a video (I added a video so you can see what I mean) and I don't use the Quick Capture feature.

Hi, they told me to re-install the firmware and look if that fixed the problem. I also have issues with my battery so I will also do a battery runtime test. I will keep you updated.

Hmm doesn't seem too bad too me, the power off cycle is a delayed button press to stop in being inadvertently done, this probably relates to using the device under pressure (deep water conditions) where the external button may have been triggered by the pressure at depth.

Just done the same on my H7 black and end to end time is about the same.

May I ask why this is causing you an issue?

My Hero 5 and hero 6 quick capture  takes about that ime to turn off  as well mod on  to Mode off.  so if I update my firmware it wil lnot fix what is not  broken if asked,  that is how gopro turns off and saves.

Looks normal to me.
