franco18 0 #1 September 13, 2010 Hi everybody !!! Please forgive me for my bad level in english! Gopro HD 's new firmware included a very interesting function: the Live Video Feed http://www.goprocamera.com/support/hdheroupdate.php#livefeedvideo With this new function, i'm wondering if it's possible to use A hypeye in order to see if the recording is on or not After few searches, the Hypeye Mini in this link http://www.gethypoxic.com/linkstore.html?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage.tpl&product_id=18&category_id=6 seems to have the same connect than the Gopro My question is do you think it's possible for an Hypeye mini to function with a Gopro HD in order to finally know if the red light is ON !!!! Thank you very much!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhreeZone 20 #2 September 13, 2010 No, the Hypeye is using LANC protocol commands to know what lights to turn on and off. The GoPro does not use these commands at all so it will not work.Yesterday is history And tomorrow is a mystery Parachutemanuals.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sdls 0 #3 September 14, 2010 I have found that best and easiest solution is to put 'mirror tape' to your altimeter. Then you can see the red light through altimeter. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mirror tape is sometimes to wavy, i prefer a piece of a plastic mirror. They can be bought in car parts stores and are sold as repair kits for car mirrors.If it does not cost anything you are the product. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
monkycndo 0 #6 September 14, 2010 Can also find a small mirror on the top cap of a lipstick tube. Or so I've heard. 50 donations so far. Give it a try. You know you want to spank it Jump an Infinity Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sdls 0 #7 September 14, 2010 Actually mirror tape is imho better because it's little bit transparent so you can fill half of the altimeter with tape and still see the reading. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Makes you wonder why some people need X-shut, hypeye and other gadgets when there are knurled thumb screws and platic mirrors.If it does not cost anything you are the product.
