Enabling Raw Audio disables Stereo Only mic setting on Hero 7 Black with Labs firmware #56

Trying to setup a QR settings preset with the QRControl app and it seems like there is a bug that causes Stereo Only Mic setting to get reset to Auto when enabling Raw Audio with QR code. This can be enabled normally on the Hero 7 Black but if it is enabled via QR code it resets the mic setting. Stereo only and Raw Audio can both be enabled at the same time.

I like using the stereo only setting because I add passive wind protection to my camera (windjammer fur and well as foam) so I don't want the camera blending between that and the mono wind mic. But I like having the camera still save out the top mono wind mic as a backup.

This is with the latest version of Hero 7 Black labs firmware and latest version of the QRControl app.

HERO7 is unlikely to see another Labs update, but I see the same problem on HERO10, so it needs a fix in general. It only wants to set wind filtering independently to the raw audio control. I will note the bug.

Can’t say I would consider this solved what is keeping Hero7Black from getting another update? It’s the only modern GoPro that can record for long periods without overheating. I specifically found another one to buy because of this. This is the only real issue I have with the Hero7 labs firmware would love to have it fixed.
