Really amazing video, tbh I am glad that you said you don't need a cam link, a life saver.

[@027fuckoff]

Thank you so much for the video! I was going to use your method until I heard 480p haha. Definitely going for a capture card. Thank you for your time and research

[@Proxspec]

I got lose with connecting it to the wireless network you said something about an app?

[@aayushofficial7]

Is it possible to gopro hero 5

[@detectivedevito]

I have the hero 2 but there’s a ton of latency. Anyone know a fix?

[@clapzy6589]

Do i need sd card to use it as webcam?

[@thurai2316]

Forst video that I watched by you and loved it. Hope to see more experimental videos as this one was really fun to watch. Since I'm subbing would you share that happy meal?

[@badmintonplays]

[@AlanEight]

Okay. So is it not working?

[@SassyClo]

[@hoglyfter]

[@albertogomez86]

when this camn was new, in automatic you can use it as a webcam trying to get back that function

[@Syncedits17]

been on this for hours. just cant do it

[@arpanmahida]

How about Hero 6 ☹️

[@CerddoriaethCymru]

I love that ur pc is called "theknightwhosaysni"

[@AlanEight]

That’s our internet, not my pc! Lol

[@CerddoriaethCymru]

@@AlanEight lol

[@AlanEight]

Yep! It was my wife’s idea

[@CerddoriaethCymru]

@@AlanEight she certainly has great taste in movies!

[@AlanEight]

Yes she does! Lol

[@AleksRG]

Cool

[@Logos10]

So what’s the answer

[@Handleunavailabl]

tyyyyy

[@AlanEight]

No problem!!

[@darkzero11ca]

[@AlanEight]

Yea, most probably don’t work anymore

[@iltius]

i dont have wifi on my pc, so what now? :c

[@emjayyy0]

maybe get a cheap usb wifi dongle, should do the trick

[@zorionowo]

Why does it have to be so hard, like what the heck? I'm trying to connect a freaking GoPro to my PC for six hours, and I don't even understand if I have FFmpeg or not, if it works or not. Python doesn't see *something* in *somewhere* and it doesn't say what is exactly wrong. Every time I try to do stuff it's just turns into some stupid aerospace engineering. I just can't find any answers when I'm going into any interesting niche thing, it's just lots of code, installing, and things that just don't work with my broken Windows that doesn't even let me open any basic apps. I'm done, sorry. I'm so frustrated about this whole thing. Time to go and cry even though I don't have any specific reason to connect a GoPro to my PC, but I want to do this, because... it's like a challenge now, but no one made a simple working solution yet. Sorry. I'm just trying to be smart without actually being smart, and then I suddenly get frustrated because I'm not actually smart.

[@polar_baer]

i would call "free" a lie since you need the RC remote.

[@NathanClevenger1337]

Neither way works. It always says 'ffmpeg' is not recognized as an internal. No files even come up in the 8080 of the web search of the camera. So using VLC is impossible. And the virtual cam doesn't do a damn thing. Okay okay, so I watched another video on how to properly install FFmpeg: kzbin.info/www/bejne/f3amempojaqirpI After doing this, now the camera works.

[@khalidhamid7448]

Dude you can make this shorter, I just need step by step instructions cut the chatter to minimum

[@alistairborthwick2031]

This isn't accurate at all. You can get a live video feed out of the mini-USB port on the GoPro Hero 3+. Easy.

[@AlanEight]

So....as far as I know you're wrong. The mini-USB is only used for charging or file transfer as far as I know. The Hero 3+ plus has a mini-hdmi port for live video out. (I know this because I literally use one) This video (as far as I remember) was getting live video WITHOUT needing the HDMI out and a capture card. Unless there is a program that will let you do that NOW, then no.

You add too much useless information 😢😢😢😢😢
