Rich, I use Final Cut Pro and changed the settings to make a smaller file, but it looks exactly the same whether in 4K or 1080p. Iāve tried frame blending and that doesnāt work and Iāve tried upping the frame rate and that doesnāt work. What I need is some software that puts ātweeniesā in where the dropped frames are.
Iāll upload some clips to dropbox and post a link

Hope you find the cached video.
Android or iOS device? I can only help with Android.
IOS Iām afraid Dave. Iāll Google it.

Cheers Ash, Iāll run it through my desktop Mac tomorrow, I just wanted to make sure it wasnāt something as simple as your PC not being able to cope with 4K 
Not found this in my MA at 4K. What frame rate did you record in? Just wondering if a clash within it was imported?
If you look at the original file from the MA that heās uploaded to Dropbox - link above - youāll see itās in that. Nothing to do with editing.
Only really seems to leave two options, the MA itself, or the card. @ash2020 could it be that the memory card did not have a fast enough write speed? Just wondering considering the high bit rate of the MA.

The cached video is on the DJI GO4 app. Open the app, then editor, then album. You can save the video to your camera roll from there and then download it to a PC.
That is the cached video, right?

Thanks Rich, Iāve got quite a high end 5K iMac and a Macbook Pro and its the same on both. If I change the frame rate and the resolution it doesnāt make any difference. My best guess is that the memory card is too slow, but not slow enough to give a warning (which it will do sometimes). The video feed was smooth as silk so its something to do with the storage. If Iād only thought, I would had saved it to internal storage, which is faster. Iāve now bought a very fast Sandisk Ultra U3 but its a bit late now.

Sounds about right.
I think one can do that in Android, too.
ā¦ itās just a load easier using a file manger on Android ā¦ donāt need the drone fired up and connected.

Drone doesnāt need to be connected to view and download the 720p recording.

You see ā¦ itās that long ago I used that function.
But yes. Youāre right now I recall ā¦ back two years, almost.

The file manager gives me so many more, and quicker, options.
ftp to my web server, or via vpn back to my laptop at home, between phones, etc. Just never used it for what seems a pointless exercise (on Android) to copy it from one place on my phone to another.
Can access the cache directly on Android.
Thanks all. I have downloaded the 720p version from the phone and edited the clips into the video instead of the 4K (sad). Hereās the final version.
Hereās the can of worms - youāll notice the balls on the rear of the Air. Thereās many a discussion to be had about that, but in this case it was absolutely the right decision. Although the Mavic was holding its position reasonably well, the boat was drifting away in the tide. One touch of the props on the rigging and that wouldāve been it, 700 quid gone. I tested it and 2 balls is enough to float it. Yes, it does create extra windage and reduce battery life. Would I put them on again - yes, absolutely.
Hope you like.

Great film and edit, I really like this.
Only 1 very small criticism, did you use ND filter, the water looks a little āartificialā at times, too high a shutter speed perhaps ?
Still really really like though.
It actually looks pretty good in 720p.
Glad you managed to save something from the footage
