GoPro 5 Telemetry data overlay directly from Adobe Premiere Pro 2015

[costasm66364939]

Hi,

I have a GoPro 5 and use telemetry to track GPS, Speed etc info.

I want to use Adobe Premiere Pro 2015 to edit my videos and add the telemetry data without using GoPro Quik or GoPro Studio at all.

Is this possible? Does Adobe Premiere Pro add telemetry data over videos somehow or do I need to always convert my videos via GoPro Quik first, then convert it again via Studio and then edit it a 3rd time in Adobe Premiere Pro and end up loosing a lot of quality?

Regards

I dont think you need Quik. Just import the files into Studio and convert to CF mov (no visual loss).

What about the telemetry overlay? How do I add that?

[Ann Bens]

Ah did some Google.

You can use this telemetry only in Quik.

Are you seeing a quality loss by doing this workflow now?

What are the output formats available in Quik?

From what I gather you can only share to Facebook and Youtube.

[costasm66364939]

Not really, you can just create the video and then use it however you want. the default "sharing" options are Facebook and Youtube.

I installed Quik (still had the previous version) but could not find any other output then FB and YT: edit found it. (not very obvious).

I am still not seeing how i can add it via adobe.

Dont think you can as its part of the gopro metadata.

Cannot you use the files straight from Quik and skipping Studio?

[costasm66364939]

yes but not sure if there is quality loss. anyway was looking for a way not to use GoPro programs at all.

Not a solution but you should certainly file a feature request:

There certainly is for Quik.

Studio converts to visual lossless Cineform file.

I am not sure there is any quality loss but it is a huge amount time if videos need to be exported 3 times (on a laptop)

Also It's not just about quality loss but also about the telemetry overlay. I am still not seeing how i can add it via adobe.

To save video (not share) using GoPro Quik software:

1. Media > View > double-click the video you want to use.

2. At the bottom, select 'Adjust Gauge' button on the right.

3. Select your gauges.

4. At the bottom, select the 'Create a Clip' button on the left.

5. If you haven't scrubbed through your video, it should have the whole clip selected.

6. Select 'Save' and check [Edit > Preferences > Media Folders] to see where it may have saved your video

     I think default is same as original video.

However, when I did this, I noticed the bitrate of the outputted video was 25% of that of the original...

Maybe if processed through Studio first you would get better quality.

I wanted to try to isolate the GPS telemetry within Premiere Pro by blending the two videos, (original and clip with GPS) it mostly worked with some spotty artifacts probably from reduced quality.

It's actually so bad that I may just return my gopro. The lose in quality is appalling.

You can now achieve this with After Effects
