RaceChrono + Gopro: can't link video files to session?
So I got a Gopro8 and just recorded my 1st track day with my it. I have an iPhone 8 and latest iOS. I've managed to get the appropriate video files loaded onto my iPhone in a "RaceChrono" album, and within RaceChrono itself these two video files are appearing within the "Photos app" dropdown source on the video selection screen. However, I can't seem to figure out how to get them linked to the session (the session got split into 2 vids, I've confirmed they are the correct ones for the session visually, and they are both appearing in the Video list). When I click on the first video, it takes me into the Analysis screen. The OBD & map data are there and scrollable, but at the top, the overlay graphics show up, however there is no video (just black), and I cannot play or scroll forward in time -- as if the video is not there, despite me just clicking on it on the previous screen. When I go back out to the Video selection screen, it still says "Not linked to this session" under the video, even though the video thumbnail is there, along with MB and time. Am I missing something painfully obvious to get the video linked? From what I gather from tutorials simply clicking on the video thumbnail should automatically link it, no?
Thx Edit: I'm using latest version of RaceChrono, and if it helps, I can play the video and it works fine when viewing in the iPhone Photos app Last edited by jfritz27; 09-23-2020 at 10:45 AM.. |

Add the graph to the bottom. You can scroll left and right there and see where the video landed. Sometimes if you start the session but wait very long to hit record on the gopro you get a lot of "black" at the front and you merely have to fast forward a bunch.

Thanks... turns out it was related to the fact that I had tried linking the smaller, lower-quality video that the GoPro records in parallel with the high res version, and RaceChrono didn't like that. When I reimported and started over using the big high-res version, everything worked fine!
