Hi
I've just borrowed a Gopro Hero Session before I buy one. I am using RC Pro trial version on a Samsung S7 edge.
Is this GoPro compatible? I can sort of get it to work as a Hero 5 but the video quality in RC is very poor and it disconnects from the Camera Wi-Fi frequently. I paired using the GoPro app first and put the Camera into app control mode.
Is it just incompatible or am I doing something wrong?
Thanks.

2) Before you download the videos to your phone, you can watch them in low resolution through WiFi connection (the .LRV files). To get full quality (the .MP4 files) you need to download (or copy through USB/sdcard/etc) the videos to your phone.
3) Does it keep disconnecting if you manually switch your phone to the camera's WiFi? RaceChrono does it automatically when you press connect, but you can do it manually before connecting.
I've tried it a few more times and discovered the problem. When I select my external Bluetooth gps it constantly drops the wifi connection with the camera and the video stutters and has interference, then disconnects.
If I select internal gps in the phone it is perfect. Unfortunately I don't have my Bluetooth goes with me right now so it obviously never makes a connection, it just searches for it. Could that be causing the issue?
Also when you take the video off the GoPro, how do you sync it to your data collected in racechrono?
You could avoid the issue by not using the GoPro remote control feature. You can still manually sync the video files to your sessions: http://racechrono.com/article/480
