Re: My hero 8 is not sending a HDMI to my 4K TV
[ New ]Just because a camera records at 4k it doesn't mean that it automatically has 4k HDMI output.
I'm guessing that theres going to be a big difference between what Gopro expect the HDMI output to be used for (checking your shots at the end of the day when on a trip and edit them when you are back home) and what some users want from the HDMI port (connect the Gopro to the T and use it as a a player to show everyone the 4k video you've taken. Or using the small format of the Hero 8 to get the camera into a tight space but bringing the HDMI out into an external recorder - possible recording at a higher bitrate or into a different codec)

Re: My hero 8 is not sending a HDMI to my 4K TV
[ New ]Hey guys,
I just received my media mod and I instantly tried to connect it to an external monitor, but I just doesn't work. At one point a little bit of the user interface appeared on the screen, but only for a few seconds. I tried several hdmi cables and also two different camera monitors. Its not working at all.
I updated my Hero 8 to the latest software and I'm using a original GoPro battery.
The onyl thing that happens is, that the display on the back of the gorpo keeps going on and off every few seconds, sporadically.
What can I do? Any Ideas?
Cheers
