I just received a new MP2 that was unbound to the Rc
I chose ntsc instead of pal
Now when I shoot in 4K the footage stutters
I know it’s not the SD or my Mac as I already had an MP2 but it had a hardware issue and flew itself into a bridge and fell in a river
Anyway they sent a new one after looking at my flight records and seeing it wasn’t my fault
I checked the SD footage from before the accident and it was perfect
I’ve tried everything to fix it including installing a special program on my MacBook that’s plays any format
I need to unbind the Rc, and I’d like to do a factory reset on the drone too just incase it it’s been a bad firmware upload that’s causing the problem
I’ve a shoot on Wednesday so I don’t have time to take it back to the shop to be examined and either repaired/ replaced. I’d really love it if it’s the fact I chose ntsc not pal but I need to reset everything to get to that menu and I can’t find how to do that anywhere
Returning it to the shop Monday is my last option so I’d really like to get it done tomorrow/Sunday if possible
Please if anyone can help me I’d be super grateful or if anyone has had this problem so I know best course of action
Desperate plea for help here!

Are you filming in H265 rather than H264,   most computers cannot play h265 without stuttering.

Id thought about that but ive no idea how to get to that menu, so my answer is I simply don't know.
I set it up straight from my new/old controller which only had 12-16 flights on and my other MP2 had no problems playing straight to the computer so I don't know how its happening on this one.
Ive spoken to place I got it from and as ive got to shoot 8am weds morning before the tide literally covers a road they've agreed to try to sort it or give me another new drone, or lend me one of there rentals.
I don't know where you are in the world but if you get this and are able to reply before tonight so I can try to swap it over to h264 if you know how to id really appreciate it as it will save me loads of hassle. its 13:23 uk time now here
cheers

UK here too.

In video mode select the three sliders with the circles and select camera at the top.  From here you can set the video size, format and coding.  for max compatibility 4k 24fps in mp4 with h264 should work in the most places.

Looks like I was too slow booting up the drone and getting you a screen shot.

PS,  If you have h265 footage that doesn't play well you can use a free tool called handbrake to convert it to h264.   I was in the same boat in Lanzarote last year and that saved my bacon.

I don't know if you have QuickTime player but you can load it on there select file , export as and you've 2 options, 1 option takes minutes to convert and 1 option takes hours. but in a pinch that works too.
speaking of Lanzarote , I moved when I was 20 to fuerteventura for 15 years to windsurf, I only came home because I broke my leg in over 32 places. that's where a German surgeon lost count of the fractures!
I was living the dream (well for the most part).
Now I go when I can and im supposed to be there now but I forgot to renew my bloody passport

I have a Mac so QT is built in,  but handbrake give you a lot more options and a device list to target which can be helpful.

Id like to go to grand canaria next,  looks like an interesting mix of ecosystems there,  but I doubt that will be this year now due to the obvious.

thanks for that, I don't do the editing just check the footage before giving it to my dad and his company to use. I only have a commercial license as ive always liked rc stuff and windsurfing so when my dad came up with the idea of me flying a drone I thought it'd be cool and if he bought me the drone and paid for my license id give him the footage.

La Palma in the Canarias has the most diverse eco system, its the only island that didn't get pillaged for the trees for the Spanish Armada so the trees there are huge. its basically a jungle and is the only one of the Canarias that's still tropical as all the others are classed as semi tropical I believe
just make sure your not on it when 1 side slides into the ocean and creates the biggest tsunami that will ever be and it could happen at any time! literally !!!!! if it goes 1 way it takes out New York and if it gies the other way it'll take out most of the south of the uk. I ... you not!
