GoPro 5/6/7 : How to Connect to External Monitor (TV, Computer Monitor, Projector)

I show you how to connect / mirror a GoPro Hero 5, 6, or 7 Black to an external monitor (TV, Computer monitor, or projector) as long as they have a HDMI port. We will be connecting these devices using a HDMI to Micro HDMI cable (amzn.to/2vNexc0). We have three options to view onto an external monitor (Monitor, Media, or Live View) which is located under input/output-Hdmi output within the settings of the GoPro.
Note that a GoPro Hero 7 white or silver or even the GoPro Hero 8 Black we will not be able to use this cable cause they do not have a Micro HDMI port!

[@nickinchina2552]

[@TampaTec]

Good quality, nice job 👍

[@jeansmohammed4451]

If you reply your cool

[@user-qd7yl2fr1y]

Many thanks for your review. Can I just ask, I've inserted my SD card into the tv but the 1080p doesnt look too sharp, so do I have to use the hdmi connection to get true HD playback? Cheers!

[@GLOBIK]

Nice! Useful tip!

[@diviecili7949]

I didn’t know as well, great tip 👍

[@TD1223]

Can you record to the SD card while displaying on a TV?

[@SumanSharmaSubedi]

Quick and easy method.. 🔥

[@AlexAbsolute]

Great info thanks 😊

[@bpinitiatives]

If the HDMI out is set to “Live”, can you still change the FOV of the output signal through video settings?

[@royalstar9999]

Hi, nice video thank u,, I wonder what cable do I need for my Go pro 9 ? connect to TV hdmi. Thanks for answer.

[@fniguy281]

The little access door hinge on my Black5 broke off, it still slides close and seals but it no longer swings open but just falls off when opened Is the part available from Gopro or should I just live with having the access door fall off when opened

[@shirleysstudio]

can you record on the live setting at the same time?

[@williamferguson8914]

I have a question i did the same thing with my micro hdmi to hdmi on both of my tvs and the gopro screen goes black like its supposed to but i dont get a signal its a black screen. Please help. i tried it on live and monitor

[@awakenonanotherworld4959]

What if my rear lcd screen is dead can I use the hdmi cord to control settings on external screen?

[@lany_07gaming]

Nice info for gopro 5/6/7 users.

[@lanuza818]

Do you know how to change the live view from 3:2 aspect ratio to l6:9?

[@Berrypancakes229]

Good tip for GoPro user’s 👍😊

[@mattkokkinn6719]

Is there a way to remove the display data on the HDMI out?

[@alexmeoroochoi5682]

Does this function can have the live audio as well?

[@ddylan4cats]

Can you use the GoPro Hero 6 to receive live playback on another computer to use it as a pretend security camera?

[@Gokywildcats11]

Can you mount this to a pole on side of boat and make. Homemade live scope device for fishing

[@lashgoshotwheels1127]

That is so cool

[@pawankumarnavadha8251]

Brother I have champark which one 8k rupe , but I can't use it as a web cam because only 2 option available in there micro USB charger and mass storage there is no any pc camera option help me

[@yurif74]

is the "live" option available in gopro hero 5?

[@JayConverse]

This week I pulled an old GoPro 4 Black off the shelf, the batteries all worked, and it happily hooked up to my monitor with the micro HDMI cable. The only problem I was what Microcenter charged me for the cables... ;-)

[@pawankumarnavadha8251]

Is there is a delay little bit?

[@nzcam]

My GoPro Hero 4 (silver) has a micro-HDMI port as well, so is that just a minor error or will it still not work with the 4?

[@recon6842]

can we use it as a webcam?

[@TuckerPearce]

Voice correction is hilarious on the micro HDMI but hell yeah dude well done. Nice vid! Can you film while it’s connected to the monitor?

[@mrgamedog1182]

yes

[@RubberSideDown2]

To get rid of the lag in movement turn stability off. Also if you get sound and no picture then you need a better HDMI cord I figured that one out. Works great now

[@Stylelss]

Do you have to use the micro HDMI to the TV or can you use the USB-C to the TV?

[@RubberSideDown2]

@@Stylelss not sure on the c. I know I used the micro Hdmi adapter

[@Stylelss]

@@RubberSideDown2 ya I don’t think usbc from GoPro supports the feed.

[@ddylan4cats]

You are getting a live preview from your GoPro. There may be some lag because the info has to transfer from your GoPro to your output device through the HDMI cable. I am not sure how to add sound. You can turn off video stability in protune feature menu.

[@TheDIYWorkshop2020]

Do you think I can connect a small monitor so I can see what I'm filming on a biger screen?

[@lawrencehughes9841]

When connected my go pro 5 screen goes blank and I can't control it what do I need to do so I can see the go.pro display also

[@TheLillianYoung]

I have an extra GoPro and was about to underprice it just to sell it. However, I’m also trying to find a rear view camera solution while riding my e-unicycle. I’ll try to find a tiny monitor and long HDMI to rig this.

[@joshallen3121]

did the live feed persist while you were recording?

[@RickyOfficial2020]

Nice friend👍👍

[@MyWealthyLiving]

my hdmi on 7 black is not working. it was working in the past. i dont know why.

[@Tora8688]

Please show us how to connect GoPro 9 USB c to HDMI

[@MrRrleonc689]

Is this so you can watch what you already recorded or can you record while watching the monitor as well?

[@bluepost2619]

This is the most important question, I sincerely hope iLuvTrading will cover this. How do we export/play back the current go pro video recordings with no HDMI (or other) output? Thank you, we look forward to your reply :)

[@octoman511]

go pro 4 also has an hdmi out port

[@Roger324]

Alguien sabe si se debe usar cable Original de Go Pro. O cualquiera sirve? Yo compre uno de $2 😅

[@aestheticallyAri]

thanks for this video!!! I have a gopro 6 and the screen stopped showing the display but the touch screen still works, is there a possibility that the display is off? I thought if i’d tether it to a monitor I can see it’s screen and control the settings like factory reset it

[@sammymolina5270]

Mine 7 does the same thing.

[@tiinasoderholm]

5 same thing and trying today with monitor if I could make it timelapse camera amd change settings via monitor

[@Pixma3mp]

Hello I have the same go pro 7 with same cord. For some reason I’m not getting anything on my tv once connected?

[@williamferguson8914]

I have the same issue were you able to figure it out?

[@Pixma3mp]

Nope

[@aguynamedsalad7287]

Hey, I got GoPro 8 Black. The HDMI input/output is missing, I have no idea why?

[@devinderbent4321]

with media mod

[@meregodapradeepslc5154]

How to get clean feed from gopro.

[@michaelsandiford8004]

So I got a couple of Hero 7 Blacks for the soul purpose of using them as HD camera for a KZbin page. Sound quality I had a separate idea that has worked out to link up with Vid footage... BUT! there doesn't seem to be an app that allows mew to view and control several go pros at the same time. All that for this... If I connect three Hero GoPro 7's at the same time to a monitor... can I split screen the monitor and view multiple gopros at the same time while also recording? If I can at least view all angles at the same time the rest of the recording process will fall into place with the technology provided. Point being is I'm trying to be my own camera team at the same time of trying to make a youtube page and seeing all angles at the same time will simplify a lot of things.

[@12thMoonTV]

What hdmi cables do you use?

[@TaviLazarstudio]

look, I'm trying to connect a gopro5 hero in a display-port of my laptop, but somehow I don't receive connection. Does anyone knows if this is possible? Thx

[@beholdbrandon]

same

[@ORyan24]

Monitor and laptop are 2 different things and that is why it doesn't work via display port. Try to connect them via bluetooth so you can see GoPro footage on your laptop.

[@DiamondPG]

Bruh... display port is an output

[@jimkennedy7108]

I have a Gopro 7 Black Hero, it doesn't work for me. I just received the cable from Amazon yesterday.

[@williamferguson8914]

I have the same issue were you able to figure it out?

[@RageStudios]

I didn't even know that was possible

[@joseardzm]

why isnt working for me ??

[@djleo9195]

Nice..but I cant watch my recorded video on my tv

[@mahendrajadhav961]

How to used 10 hour

[@matmrash1]

this does not apply to a hero 7 silver.

[@tdubz1154]

I can’t control my media playback except for pause and play? I will never buy another GoPro so long as I live.

[@compassioncampaigner728]

Taking too much for granted. Blazing through the basic...how to open the door for the connections.S Sounds pretty dim, but I have a friend's Go Pro and I want to be certain of my handling of the unit correctly. Not learning it correctly here. Disappointed.

[@lechoncio]

Hi , I am very dissapointed and angry with gopro!! had my gopro 7 black and I could just connect to my TV with just my HDMI cable and watch clips immediatelly without buying anything else. Bought the Gopro 10 and lost that feature, unless of course I buy this fucking mediamod device that I dont need. I tried to use a direct cable but now GOPRO wont let the direct cable transmit to tv unless you purchase the fucking mediamod device. I am so dissapointed I wont buy again from gopro

[@_k_7763]

Do i still need a capture card to use my GoPro as a webcam/stream cam in my Mac?

[@erikkalimpo3584]

Yes
