FAQ
  • FAQ from kameton709
  • FAQ about the camera(translation fromRuslan2001)
  • Manual in Russian
  • Instructions for updating the camera software through the standard application
  • What is the difference between revisions z2x and z2xl ?
    In cameras without an L index, the IRC (Infra Red Cut) filter is physically implemented, while in others it is programmatically implemented!
    IRC filter cuts off part of the invisible IR spectrum, which is perceived by the matrix as a glare (Blur effect)
    It is believed that cameras with a software implementation of this filter have a sharper image, but the IR spectrum is worse removed, and cameras with a physically present filter have the opposite!
  • Why does the camera record video in chunks, although loop recording is not included?
    In the native firmware there is a limit on the file size of 2GB, which, for example, when video quality in 1080/60 is 10 minutes 35 seconds. Depending on the quality and the bitrate value on modified firmware, this value can vary up or down.
    If the camera writes files a few seconds long, then the problem is most likely in a flash drive.
  • Why does the sound stutter when playing video on a PC?
    First, try installing the latest video codecs, for exampleK-Lite Codec Pack.
    If this did not help, then perhaps your computer does not pull video in 1080/60 or problems with a flash card. Try to view the captured video file on another PC / replace the USB flash drive.
  • My camera hangs when connected to pc / file copy. It helps only to extract the battery. What should I do?
    Try another cord, usb port or use a card reader.
  • Can I record 720 / 120fps HD video with sound?
    Not
  • Can I connect an external microphone through a micro usb-jack3.5 adapter, etc.?
    Not
  • How to install the script for the camera?
    Drop the autoexec.ash file to the root of the sd card
  • Is there an aquabox and accessories included?
    Not. In Standart Edition only the camera, in Travel Edition the camera and monopod.
  • Is it possible to buy a water box separately?
    Yes, it is possible. The price of of.sayte is 99 yuan.
  • Are accessories from GoPro to Xiaomi Yi?
    The mount of the original box matches the standard GoPro mount. You can also use an adapter from 1/4 "thread to the GoPro mount.
  • Can I purchase a monopod separately?
    Some sellers offer this service. So for example on banggood.com they ask about $ 18 for it.
  • Is there a Yi Camera app for iOS?
    Yes, but only in Chinese and English. The owner of the devices with JB can install the translated version from the SW.dezmen3
  • How to reset the camera to factory settings?
    Resetting to factory settings is performed by pressing the camera power button and the WIFI power button on the powered camera.
  • Is there a timelapse mode?
    Yes
  • Can I connect an external microphone through the microUSB port?
    Not
  • Can I use the camera as a DVR?
    Yes, but you cannot change the cyclic recording settings. The camera writes segments of 5 minutes. Avtostart record when power is appliedNOT. There is a script in the header on autostart of recording when the camera is turned on, but as you understand, you will still have to manually turn on the camera every time.
  • Why is there no date / time stamp on the video?
    When the flipping is on, it does not work. Bug in the firmware. Not yet fixed (v. 1.2.13)
  • Why in the camera Bluetooth?
    For use with a Bluetooth remote to control the camera.
  • Is it possible to update the camera version without using the mobile application?
    - we charge the camera up to 100%
    - go on thisreference
    - enter your serial and download the firmware
    - rename it to the firmware and upload it to the root of the flash drive (if the file is displayed as * 123456.bin * when downloading, to * firmware.bin *, if the OS has file extensions hidden and the downloaded file looks like * 123456 *, then we rename it simply to * firmware *) formatted by camera or for volume cards

    4-32 �� - FAT32 download

    for more volume -exFAT (not recommended, according to unconfirmed data, there is a chance to hit a * brick *)
    - insert the USB flash drive, battery, turn on the camera. the camera will start beeping for a couple of minutes
    - after it will issue three peeps and turns off
    - turn on and use
    - Manual in English from the official site
    - PS from personal experience: had a problem updating from a 64GB card in exFAT, got3 red lightsI dropped the 32GB firmware in FAT32 - the camera came to life. From here, the advice is to try to update from the card in FAT32 format (4-32 GB cards)






Important! Starting with versionv1.0.12firmware for different camera revisions are different. You can download the version for your camerahere (more)

It is surprising that with such a matrix, 4K video is not announced, or at least SuperHD. Who understands these ambarellas - they just put the youngest model of processors, right?

Yes, Ambarella A7LS.
In gopro, it seems, is Ambarella A9.

P.S. H1 is something something, 1080p @ 240fps, I don’t even know which card I need for this.
Andrey_GAV @ 03/03/2015, 13:21*
SJ4000 will not fit into boxing judging by the photo (SJ is on the table, measured)

At the very pile of mount from SJ / Gopro and it is very disappointing, because of mm to buy exactly the same mount.
Andrey_GAV @ 03/03/2015, 13:21*
And in general, I did not understand, is it waterproof without a box, or is a separate box needed?

With boxing waterproof.

By the way, there is no display.
If you can only configure in conjunction with the phone, then this is not the best option.

About boxing while in the internet there is nothing and pictures, etc.

No, but it says so on their website that they are purchased separately.

Well, of course, but to change the modes, photos, videos, time-lapses, resolution, frame rate / second, how much memory is already clogged.

What I actually learned: the aqua case in the kit for $ 80, for $ 64 I do not know :)
And he has a mount that looks like Go Pro (the best and exciting news)

Confirmation of my words above and visual comparison with Go Pro H4

According to the source:
No optical stabilization, which is in Go Pro
The device has no internal memory.
It has 2 microphones with 3D noise reduction.

Without stabilization is bad, complete porridge is going on.
Again, for 1 minute, did you buy the camera oversold or did you not start the sale yet?

Water box is probably not included.

1080p @ 240fps, I don’t even know what card I need for this

And the bit rate does not grow in proportion to fps. Moreover, it is not very proportional, in fact, to preserve the quality between 30p and 60p, it was always enough to throw 10 percent. I think 240 from 30 differ by two times, a maximum of three, some UHS-1 will suffice.


Bormot @ 03/04/2015, 01:47*

Making a mount is not like a gopro - it would be an epic fail, I think. Enough that your boxing.

Boxing was originally in the etching version, but then all the photos were rubbed (but there is a place in the box for it)

I wrote today, I was told that it was not included. Lol

If there is a place in the box - it should be, someone just wants to be welded.

Waiting for the version with a selfie stick will cost 100 honest raccoons, then I will order it.
$ 20 - the toad is strangling, it is better to buy more accessories for it for this amount.

It is necessary to throw comrades from the next topic.

Why do you need such an expensive stick? The main cover is a windbreak, the rest is a whim. Need to compare dimensions with amcov sj5000
