Support for older Gopro camers (i.e. Hero 5)
FFMbyBicycle opened this issue · comments
Currently only newer recordings are supported as the older ones use a different file naming. I didn't want to rename my video (series), so I made a few small fixes and added more regex voodoo in filenaming.py to add support for the older file naming scheme (see lower part here: https://community.gopro.com/t5/en/GoPro-Camera-File-Naming-Convention/ta-p/390220 ) while keeping newer ones working.
Do you want me to add a PR for this? I tried to understand the tests, but I'm not that deep into Python and failed at that step. It would be really nice if we could add that support for everybody 👍
hiya - thanks for the suggestion and code - this is only used in the gopro-rename program - you should be able to to use gopro-dashboard unchanged.... is that your intention?
Sorry, I may have to be more precise: I tried to use gopro-join, which also uses the code and it failed to work with older Gopro videos. That's why I added the fix. gopro-dashboard itself worked fine as far as I remember.
ok - so 0.96.0 should have this fix. I can't really test it with real data, but please let me know how it goes. It might take a few minutes to show up in PyPI.
Thanks! It seems to work for most cases, which is fine for me 👍
