Changing GoPro Settings

Deleted member 2124 · Oct 20, 2015

I'm guessing I am missing something, but I was under the impression that we could change a ton of gopro settings through the Solo app. I don't see where we can do this. What am I missing?

Full GoPro control isn't available yet. Hopefully the November update will address this.

What Iv been reading on that link..Isint there another FW coming out this month so will be able to switch from Video to Still pictures from the app? Or are they gonna wait till Nov to release this?

It should be the next Release @Del, the November release. As I think I just updated my stuff here just a couple of weeks ago to 1.2! But yes you will have more GO Pro control. The ability to switch from video to Picture is what im after!

I had to edit my last post..I put the wrong Month..lol
But that link can be a little deceiving saying that they were gonna release another FW this month (Oct) to control the Video and still picture function.? But an any case..even if we have to wait till November it will all be worth it

I'm just new to this and not trying to bite off more than I can chew.

I would use the tower app if I was using an Android .. But I'm using ISO..

They said mid October would have the update to change from film to pictures within the app and by early november it would have the ability to change resolution and FPS. However with how every things been going I hate to say this but I am "counting on end of december". Would rather wait and have a good update than keep having a killing suspense every week on something.

Del. You gotta bite the bullet

. Tower really is pretty darn cool. And other than the price of another tablet, Android isn't that bad

Been away from this a while. Are you saying that I have to be using the TOWER app to switch from video to stills? Not available in the SOLO app?

Not yet. Full GP support supposed to be here in Nov

What happened to the mid october release that will at least add the functionality of switching modes?

I think October release was some stuff and November was others. They laid it out in the news release.

Ryan35 · Oct 24, 2015

Yes from what I read was there was our original update at the beginning of this month and than there was supposed to be one coming soon that would allow you to switch modes and than another one in early november that would allow you to do FPS resolution etc...

Haven't tried it yet, but they pushed an update to 3DR Services (1.4.3), which says it has "camera mode switch". I haven't tried it yet and afaik, 3DR Services is only used by 3DR apps on Android so not sure about iOS.
