First second of video is darker when using Quikcapture #287

Open shokwaav opened 1 year ago

Context Running Labs firmware 2.10.70 on a GoPro Hero 11.

Camera settings: High bitrate 10-bit enabled Flat colour Sharpening low

Labs settings:

BITR=200,NR01,LOGB=400, WIDE,EXPX=60,EXPN=120:

The problem When I use quikcapture, the first second of my footage is darker than the rest.

It seems to correspond to the time when the tags show up on the screen. Changing DSPC to transparent didn't help either.

I couldn't seem to find reports about quikcapture so submitted this report.

It is a known issue, but not likely fixable. All the Labs functions boot after the rest of the camera, this is to ensure camera stability, as Labs is a lower priority operation. So the reading of Labs settings happen after the capture has started when using QuickCapture. Changing !MDSPL=10 will reduce the messaging time, and improve the Labs boot time.

Do you know how to start quickCapture remotely sending some BLE command?

That is question for https://gopro.github.io/OpenGoPro/ (BLE extensions are not current in Labs.)
