P: 5k GoPro footage in iOS Lightroom does not export

Being able to create content with just your GoPro and Lightroom Mobile is extremely useful for people who are in the field and need to get footage uploaded. With the newer GoPro cameras that run 5k 60fps, Lightroom can not handle the footage for whatever reason. Even when shooting in 4k60 Lightroom still can't handle the footage. I am running an iPhone 13 with latest iOS and Lightroom. Lightroom mobile can process 4k60 footage from older GoPros (hero 9 or older) however the 10&11 produce footage that Lightroom doesn't agree with. This is an incredibly irritating issue and the built in tools on the GoPro app are extremely lacking especially when editing underwater footage. You can not scrub through footage or export it. The app just crashes every time you try and work with the footage. I'm not sure if anyone is aware of the issue nor would they be without someone to tell them. The Lightroom app is incredibly powerful for underwater gopro footage but not being able to export it in 4K is an issue for sure.

Hello @Zachary30388183l4aw 

Thank you for your message.  I finally tracked down some 5K footage (8bit HEVC), and confirmed that when Lightroom Mobile exports edited renditions of the footage it gets downsampled to a smaller resolution.  I'll log an issue for the team to review, but there may be a reason for this I don't know.

I do notice that when I export edited 5K footage from the LR Web app (at lightroom.adobe.com), I get a higher res output that's closer to 4K, but is still not 5K. 

 

My guess is the LR engineering team has focused on supporting common video formats first, and supporting newer formats like 5K and 8K will take some time and effort.  Thanks again for your note.  Posts like yours help the team assess user needs and interests.
