I can no longer record route and speed using the gps remote. Please help.

On a separate note, is it possible to process GPS data on desktop/laptop computer. Using a smartphone app to do this processing really adds to workflow. Please create a dedicated app like insta360 to process gps overlay data. Thanks!

  • Optimized the stabilization in the cycling scenario.

    Can you explain more precisely what this means?

Would be nice if you were able to actually buy the GPS Remote. It is never in stock.

Hi, Visual Air. Thank you for reaching out. The Osmo Action GPS Bluetooth Remote Controller is currently out of stock in the DJI Store but you may click the "Notify Me" button to be notified first. Thank you for your understanding and support. If you need the Remote as soon as possible, you might want to consider ordering it from our official Amazon Store. Please check it here. Hope this helps.

Anyone know how the highlights show up?  Is it only in the Mimo app?

Hi, ronj. Thank you for reaching out. When recording starts, press the Quick Switch Button on the camera or Osmo Action GPS Bluetooth Remote Controller, and a yellow tick “√” will appear in the middle of the camera touchscreen to prompt that one highlight has been marked.

In the Playback interface, the “Highlights” on the progress bar below will be displayed as yellow rhombuses. You may add (yellow) or delete (white) highlights.

* If the Quick Switch Button is not pressed throughout recording, highlights can also be added during playback.

Hope this helps.

  • Hi there. Thank you for reaching out. It means the stabilization is better than before in the cycling scene. Have a great day ahead.

    I don't know if this is a question for you or someone else: Can DJI provide before and after comparison footage of such fixes?

    But what do you mean: Rocksteady or Rocksteady+ of Horizon balancing, etc.
    What is the preferred stabilisation for cycling where the Action 4 is mounted on the handlebar.

    I understand that ordinary users cannot make such a comparison, but DJI is able to make a comparison on an earlier stable version of the software and on a release candidate version - just before the update is released

    we came from this to that, doubt they want to show   that it may  not work out in their best way if asked . they are about the latest  that they still can not do straight

    Can I ask …… does the Mimo app self update itself or do we have to continually check to see if the version we have is out of date? For some reason, I may have had an older version on my IPad and the update didn’t show until I downloaded the latest version.

    When I checked, the word 'update' was under the app, not download so I'm guessing mine was an older version but the IPad hadn't updated it.

    All you apps will auto update , so long as you set your device to auto update .

    Hi there. Sorry about the confusion. This is a general optimization and it works for all the stabilization so it depends on your preferences. If you're experiencing any issues, please tell us. Have a great day ahead.

    iPhone has a strange way of updating apps - even if you have auto-update enabled, Apple sometimes won't push the updates immediately so that developers have time to pull them back in case the update breaks things.

    This might be common sense but the highlights don't show up in Davinci Resolve, just in case you are wondering. Would have been so cool though.

    Man I have sooo many ideas on how to make the Action 4 a true king in the action cam world (tbh it already is... GoPro's latest drop is shameful), DJI get in touch!

    Someone in the FB forums said the voice control error isn't a bug but that it keeps the camera from overheating in those modes. He said he saw it in the manual but can't seem to find it now. Seems like a bug to me.

    Why would high wind noise reduction only work in 1080p? Doesn't really make much sense as to why it's resolution limited

    The update also wiped all my settings, including my presets. I noticed it immediately because it also reset the sound settings which I usually turned off.

    Hopefully this will be fixed in future firmware updates.

    Interesting.  It would be great if there was a way to have these highlights show up in Davinci Resolve as markers!  At a minimum if there was a way to generate a CSV with the filename and SMPTE code and type for each marker so that we could even manually identify the marks associated with the footage would be great.  The ultimate goal is to identify where in the footage the marks are inside of an NLE (e.g. Davinci Resolve).

    Agreed. Huge bummer as the wind noise with motorcycle use is my biggest disappointment with the camera so far. Hopefully 4k gets unlocked in a future update but I'm imagining the processing power required might make it impossible sadly.

    Hoping for the best too!

    Hi, volkovguru. Thank you for reaching out. When there is a firmware update and after the DJI Mimo app is connected, a corresponding update prompt will appear. Please follow the prompts on the app screen to update.

    Hi, arodir. Thank you for joining the thread. In theory, a firmware update on Action 4 will not reset the camera parameters but if you perform a factory reset manually, it will back to default mode which will delete the custom modes.

    Hi, DaveSp. You may provide us with the camera log for further checking.
    Export the logs from the Osmo Action Series:
    1. Please reproduce the abnormal process:
    2. Go to camera unit System Settings - Device Info. Tap “Export Logs”.
    3. Mount the camera unit and front touchscreen module/power module. Connect to Osmo Action 4 and a computer using a USB cable.
    4. Select “File Transfer” on the Osmo Action 4 screen. Go to “My Computer”. Find the corresponding disc for the Osmo Action 4 (internal storage).
    5. Please export all log files and zip them. Send the entire zip file back for analysis and confirmation (Also check the time point when the abnormality occurred to determine the log position).

    Please upload the files to Dropbox or Google Drive and provide us the shareable link via PM. We will wait for your update. Thank you for your cooperation.

    Just FYI the update factory reset my Action 4 and I lost all 5 of my custom modes! Thankfully I have a video where I documented all my settings for best footage.

    Same - 2nd firmware update, 2nd time custom settings lost.
