Please add this option. For airplain/wing flyers it is a musthave.

I lost a drone a year ago, hard to swallow but I finally bought a new one, and I'm not doing the same mistakes again, so I added a GPS chipset. I'm glad I found this topic before flying because I assumed that OSD data would be on video recorded by the DJI FPV Goggles.

Please add this feature, by recording OSD data on video or in a separate file, I don't care but I want the data if my drone crashes again.
Or even better, make the Goggles firmware open source.

Per favore inserisci la registrazione di tutti i dati del osd  nel DVR.... Non è possibile spendere 800€ tra occhiali e air unit e poi non avere queste funzioni basilari

Just registered with DJI to be able to post here and add a vote for the OSD to be recorded. Apart from the obvious advantage of having GPS for recovery of a lost drone, I´d love to have all stats on the video, even hardcoded if it´s an issue to put them into a separate .srt!
Please fix this DJI!
Cheers,
Tina^^

Please add this as an option.  It would be ideal to record all OSD info to the .srt file (or allow us to select what is recorded).  GPS lat/lon coordinates are necessary to efficiently find aircraft!  If I crash and the OSD goes away, I'm not in a good situation because I can't enter the coordinates into my phone.

Yes, please add the option to record gps coordinates in the .srt file.  Even better to see all betaflight osd in the .srt as well.  I just converted from analog to this DJI system and love image quality but not being able to review betaflight OSD is a big let down.

I'm so glad you responded with this comment.  It dawned on me that I really don't know what happens when you loose the video feed so I just tested by unplugging the battery on my quad and the video just freezes with the gps coordinates still displayed.  This is great!  The last coordinates are still available to be copied to a phone so you can track down the lost quad.  I'm guessing they are lost for good when the googles are powered down.  Is there anyway to see them again?

I would still love to see the custom OSD recorded in the SRT file but know I don't need a photo graphic memory to get the GPS coordinates after a crash is excellent!

Thanks for sharing this.  It gives me a bit more peace of mind.  I suppose I could take my phone out and take a quick snapshot through one of the goggle lenses in the event of a crash.  It would still be much better if DJI can record all OSD info to the .srt file, though (or at least the critical info we want).

Real world test on this today and this did not work out as I'd hoped.  I had video down to crash site.  Not sure when I lost it exactly but someone unplugged the battery at one point.  I had a weak or frozen image for maybe 30 seconds before the screen saver came on and I hadn't captured the gps coordinates. Got lucky and found it but we really need custom OSD recorded in SRT file so it can be reviewed.  GPS onboard was not help today.  Hopefully those firmware updates start rolling again soon.

Agreed that the goggles really should record all OSD elements and some important ones that are missing should be added, but I ended up switching to an OpenTX based transmitter so I could record GPS information. Recording to SD card on the transmitter but there is no easy way to view the recording on the transmitter. The transmitter does save the coordinates on screen if you have telemetry screens set up. I have heard that if the goggles go into screen saver mode, you can hit a button to dismiss the screensaver and the coordinates will still be there.

I support the request and the need for this function! In addition to the ability to view the latest GPS coordinates on the record from the glasses, it will also be possible to use the gyroscope data to stabilize the video through the reelsteady.

DJI, please add custom osd recording in next firmware release. It is very helpful feature in case of crash. Also after flight I would like to see HD video with osd data Thank you so much.

This feature is a must have. It has been requested for a very long time.
DJI is big company, there's no way they are slow like this... We don't even know if they are working on it.
Some communication with public would be great... I mean what is the point of working if it is not for customer satisfaction?

I just learned about hitting a button if it goes to screen saver.  I tried it and it works.  Your last frame and osd with coordinates will be visible again.  I wish I had know that when I was looking for my quad that day but very happy to know about it know.  Just don't unplug the power!

I didn't think about using telemetry as a work around.  I'd have to upgrade my radio but good to know.  Now that I know how to get out of the screensaver I'll live with that for now and hope DJI keeps the firmware updates comming.

Count me in, just got the v2 goggles and actually i thought this would be a standard feature to log both OSD (dji and custom betaflight), but while trying it out I learned that only dji osd will be recorded.

I really hope DJI roll this out in a firmware update.  To record the telemetry as an option would be amazing.  To overlay it with the drone camera footage would be even better.  I hope also to get a sport+ mode to have a little more power in sports mode but have the confidence of the DJI GPS system keeping you safe.

Hey +1 to this.

Can you please add.
1. recording of video with OSD (as it is seen by the pilot)
2. record all received telemetry data (GPS, Alt, Voltages,..)

Thanks

I'm really glad that you can press the joystick down to get the GPS coordinates. My FPV feed dropped completely while flying far away. If it weren't for the GPS coordinates I would have never found the plane. It would be even better to have this information in either the video or a .srt file though.

i think caddx have implied that canvas mode is being worked on, would this then be recordable on the goggles DVR or just we will see more of the betaflight OSD but still not be able to record it?

The last frozen frame does not always work. Once I lost video, just flying 50m near me in open space. The bitrate starts to dropping down, until I got just a black screen. After seconds later, it goes back, but at that time, the drone was already down on the ground....
