Powering off via BLE #1

Hi,

First of all, great work with all the GoPro hacks. Keep it up! :)

I tried out some of the BLE stuff on a Hero6. The byte array b'\x01\x04' seems to crash the H6-it switches off before completing the beep sequence, and cannot be woken via BLE.

I tried b'\x01\x05' and it seems to perform a "graceful shutdown".

Was wondering if it's the same with H5 as well.

Cheers

It works on the 5. Byte 5 is the equivalent of /sleep. Can you submit a PR?

On further testing, I observed the following:

Byte 4 : Complete shutdown of the camera; WiFi and BLE are turned off. Wireless wake not possible

Byte 5 : Sleep. Wifi stays on for about 10 mins after camera powers off, BLE for (at least) a couple of hours). Could turn the camera on via BLE
