This is new bug/regression. The USB trigger is very old Labs hack, and may need some updates. There is a workaround
Use: !MWAKE=2 <- the camera will boot on power. Set once.
This will then work with your list script.
Same problem with my Gopro 12 black.
Additional questions: a) How can I create a QR Code for "!MWAKE=2" b) How can I manually enter such commands? Thx!
These are no longer bugs.
Lin-Admin, Use any QR Code generator. Or use QRControl mobile app or use https://gopro.github.io/labs/control/custom/
I have now found out that I can edit the files qr.bin and bt and put the commands like MWAKE=2!mV!R in both files. This makes the cam start when USB power is connected.
However I still could not find a command which switches the cam off when USB power is disconnected and battery is still inserted.
Any hints are highly appreciated!
Do not manually edit qr.bin, this is not work reliably. Also !MWAKE=2 should never be in a boot command, that is a set once event.
I don't understand why you feel the need to do not use a QR Code generator.
I worry if give you details on the more different stuff, without the learn the easy tools, you will brick your camera.
All this can be done with: https://gopro.github.io/labs/build/ but you will need to understand coding principles.
