Was this video helpful? Say thanks with a coffee! www.buymeacoff...
Thank you. I wonder what else was in the update. I've been totally happy with my DJI camera, mic 2 and the wrist remote. Everything just works.
Wayne but did you try those mics from the snapshot feature? Either there will be no recording or a white noise type of thing while it recognizes the mics. Could you do a test?
Thanks for letting us know, Wayne.
Good work Wayne. Thanks for the heads up👍
Awesome update. Thx Wayne. 🤘🏻😎🤘🏻
Hello, there. How about DJI Action 4 as a webcam?? It seems the desktop audio shuts off anything when I plug in into USB. HELP!
What mic do u recommend for at homie music studio recording ? The nt1-A or the audio technica AT4033
No update available yet for my action 4 , hope it will be rolled to my region soon
in mimo app einloggen dann sieht man das update
Awesome mate, I'll get this done tonight!
Hi Wayne,
Any recommendation for a mic, for creatiing e-biking videos with a OA4 with a chest mount and a lav mic? Be it in the city or nature. What lav mic would you recommend?
I'm a beginner to audio, but looking for some street ambience and a clear voice recording.
I like using the Sennheiser XS lav (USB-C version) with my Action 4. Plugs directly into the camera, no adapters needed. It's less sensitive than some other lavs so less prone to clipping in you have it close to your mouth and I think it's only ~$60.
@WayneRECs thank you for recommendation. And if one would also want to record ambient noise, of traffic, nature etc. Would the XS mic pick that up when close to ones face.
Or could one record a second channel ambient noise somehow with a second mic? Can action 4 record multiple audio channels? Maybe a sound recorder would be a good option for ambient sound?
Sorry I may have missed the information, but did you sometime ago, talk about a single cable going from the camera to an external microphone
Thanks
Much appreciated
@@slojam100 BOYA BY-K2 is a USB-C to 3.5mm male that works directly from the camera into a TRS jack on a microphone.
Can a USB C mic be plugged directly into the camera USB port without the DJI Mic adapter?
want DJI for moto blog, is there have any issue with external type c mic ?? i mean audio issue, like audio distortion, or lake of recognize etc , can you tell me please ??
If you learn how to get good moto audio with an action 4 let me know, I have tried the external mic adapter with poor results
Updated the OA4 but still don't have that option. Perhaps I need new firmware also in the mic 2 transmitter?
ok that was it. I had to update the transmitter firmware to v04.03.08.31 before this appeared in the menu for me.
Yes, I think the TX needs the latest firmware from 1/31/24. The TX also has to be connected via BT to the Action 4 for the option to be displayed.
Also the OA4 firmware wiped away all my custom settings.
Wayne this is a good update. I won't buy the Dji adapter anymore. I just buy the usb-c lavalier mic. what do u think?
Depends on what you're using it for. The DJI Audio adapter seems like it's specifically designed to attenuate mics for moto use. Alternatively, finding a low sensitivity USB-C lav might also work.
@@WayneRECs thank you. This is very helpful advice for me to decide. Since I want to use the mic for motovlogging.♥️👍
But using usb makes the system not waterproof….bad for moto…biking, yachting too
i have two Rode microphrons, Video Mic NTG with two connecting paths, USB-C or 3.5mm clable, and Wireless Go II wireless with the same connection paths. Can I connect them to DJI Osmo Action 4? thanks for your help
I have a VideoMuc NTG and I connect it to my Action 4 via a USB-C to USB-C cable.
How do you find latest firmware updates?
For the Action 4, it's typically done thru the DJI MIMO app on a mobile device. The app downloads the FW and then installs it when the camera is connected to the app.
For the DJI Mic 2, the FW files need to be downloaded from the product page downloads and then manually copied onto the root folder of the devices when connected to a computer via USB-C. Once disconnected, the devices automatically begin the update process.
Thanks 👍
my problem was that the mic 2 wouldn't reconnect instantly back to the camera when using the snapshot feature. About 4 out of 5 times it would take more then 10 seconds to reconnect AFTER the camera would start recording. I was so disappointed that I didn't use it anymore, I even had no idea about the 15 minutes problem :) Now it's better, it maybe does it 2 out of 5 times but still it's not reliable. Why are they not adding an option to keep the BT connection active when the camera goes to sleep, I don't know ...
That's the problem I experienced. I thought this set up would be ideal for motovlogging but if the mic wont reconnect after stopping recording then it's useless and so need to use a wired mic
@@TwoTubesADV what I do, I have the front screen on the osmo4 set to be on, I wake up the camera ( long press on the record button) and then wait until I see in the motorcycle mirror the message on the front screen of the osmo4 that the mic 2 is connected and then I start recording. I also use the dji remote attached to my mirror arm. It's not ideal but it works 100% of the time. You should probably do this while stopped though :)) But I still don't get why DJI can have the bluetooth connection on, for the remote, when the camera is in sleep mode but not for the mic 2. What's also annoying is that after 30 minutes of sleep the camera turns itself completely off and then even the remote disconnects, which is just stupid. People keep asking them on the official forum (me included) to have the option of having the camera never turning off while in sleep mode and have the mic 2 BT connection stay on but DJI seems to ignore these for now. Maybe with a future firmware update ....
Ok Wayne we have to talk!!!!
What’s up? Just because I was unable to post comments I still could view and like 👍 that is no reason to get all huffy and post bi-monthly I didn’t go no where as you can tell I can post under my name again , and no! It’s wasn’t a YT punishment tech issues☝️ ✌️🤙
I just did the update on both of my cameras and neither offers that auto-off function... Hmm...
The auto off is only displayed if a DJI Mic 2 is connected via BT to the Action 4.
@@WayneRECs It’s connected via Bluetooth. I have two cameras and two mics for motovlogging. Neither have the auto-off option when connected. Odd.
Your TXs might also need the manual FW update from 1/31/24.
@@WayneRECsYup. I thought I had done that but I guess not. That added the auto-off function. Fantastic! This is great for use with the DJI wireless remote thingie. Now I don't have to worry about the mics not being on when I fire up the cameras. Thanks for the video!
Where to download the update?
I forgot that this is done through a smartphone. Everything turned out fine.
Much better video than the one you did months back where you griped for minutes on end but gave no clue as to what was problem you encounted. I clicked away after a few mintues. Guess you got feedback and learnt. Sharp and to the point. Much better.
we now need record "pause" option.
And separate wav recording like the Pocket 3!
the top secret stuff funny ho they released with no notes
Ha! DJI has never been good about including audio fixes in the FW notes in the past, so why start now lol
hey Wayne I was watching some of your videos on this subject lately and I want to use a Comica Vimo C3 wireless microphone set with the dji osmo action 4. I bought a TRRS jack 3.5mm to USB C but the audio is recorded at a very bad quality. Then I saw your video and got the TRS 3.5mm jack to USB C and this one doesn t even send proper signal.
The mic set has no problem when connected to a normal camera or sound card.
Any suggestions?
What brand and model TRS 3.5mm to USB-C adapter did you buy?
@@WayneRECs thanks for replying. I got a no-brand one. I am thinking of ordering the original one from Comica. It might very well be that adaptor as I cannot really test it.
@@medianopol Generally, the Action 4 handles usb-c audio much like a mobile phone does. In fact, many of the 3.5mm TRS to USB-C mic adapters were initially designed with phones in mind. So if you have a mobile device with USB-C, you can test it that way. If you haven't already, check out this video th-cam.com/video/U_GiSphFFwQ/w-d-xo.html
same here. bad quality with a hollyland TRS to usb-c adapter cable ...
i finally got my DJI Mic adapter, that little adapter is tiny! I am having trouble with Threaded/Locking 3.5mm Lav mics, mainly my whole stable of Senheiser lavs. This little adapter REALLY dosnt like the locking 3.5mm mic jacks. They slip right off. What to do?
I do use the Deity D4 Mini. I had no issues with my old Osmo Action, but with the Action 4 and a new audio-to-usb-c cable the quality is very bad. I hope this update fixes the quality issue too
