GoPro Corrupted File SOLVED - For Large (5K) Videos on Mac
มุมมอง 1.5Kปีที่แล้ว
TLDW; Use an SD Card reader If you're getting the error "An error occurred. Please try again. If the error keeps occurring, your file might be corrupted." when trying to import large GoPro files (especially 5K) on your Mac, this is probably the solution for you.

The algorithm is working beautifully
Perfect way to end my Friday! I thought my weekend of editing was ruined :P thanks man!
Lots of great colors! Nice job
where to download image capture? Thanks
Time to take a trip to best buy to get a card reader lol, Thanks for your video!!
Thanks man. Good to know for next time.
thank you
this footage is dope! what did you place infront of your cam?
thank you very much, you helped me a lot
Do you use the red filter and light together?
You wouldn’t use both together, the light restores colours that are missing at depth, if you use the red filter with the light it would result in a red sheet over your image, the filter is useful to use if you don’t have a light
We have it hard as South Africans man 😢 please let me know how the backscatter importing etc went
Thanks!
So... I bought the best action camera but I have to but a SD Card Reader to use it. LOVE IT Thanks for the info
Great solution thanks!
Thank you very much brother.
100-200 grand cheaper!?!?!
I emailed Modlite about the flicker issues with the Modbutton, as i was having the same issue. The fix was to use dielectric grease on the plug. It fixed my flicker, its been 8 months and still no flicker. Hope this helps you and others
Found your vid, and I'm so happy to tell you that you saved the whole month! I thought my GoPro had issues or my SD card wasn't fast enough! No one talks about this issue on the internet. They all directly suggest "to get a faster SD card." Grazie!
Thanks for sharing the Arisaka, and showing all the lights so well at range. It really helps to see the beam pattern stretching out across the ground. It doesn't matter what the claimed out puts are of each light, the Malkoff heads have better patterning. You've shown how the E2XT achieves more throw and useable flood with better focusing. Its far more important to see whats around the target you're spotting at then whats right next to you. I really want to see the E2HT tested as I think it has the best balance
7:37 😂😂😂
Yeah lucky you didn’t become shark food.
Malkoff E2XTL performed well
Great job! If you repeat a similar test, can I ask you to install another camera with a zoom, so that it looks more like what human eyes see? This is a great shot, but the target is too far for the camera.
PLHv2 looks like a good all-around light.
Yeah it’s great. It’s my preferred light on my 16”
cant beat malkoff...
For quality, but for performance it’s easily beaten
@@joebuck4496 it literally just beat out all of these major competitors in every aspect minus light spill, which the Malkoff wasn't made for anyways.
@@nickbloodsworth4705 Malkoff’s purpose isn’t to be a leader in the pack for power lights, it’s purpose is for being bulletproof, and longevity. Drop your flashlight off the roof and it still works fine, that’s a Malkoff or an Elzetta. It doesn’t even try to be a throw or flood champion, because that actually hurts longevity, excessive heat shortens LED life. I used to be a power whore lol, but now I like bulletproof super high quality flashlights better.
@@joebuck4496 uh not really, not many competitors for it specially for price
Can you provide a time stamp or overlay of which light it is so we don't have to go through the whole video?
Added to the description.
Damn that TLR 1HL is impressive. Even at 100 yds. Wish they’d make that head on an edc light body with a single 18650.
awesome comparison, thank you!
The E2XT looks to be great for longer shots. With some magnification should make out target pretty well. Great video.
