Issues working with a6300 XAVC S 4K files in GoPro Studio
“Hi all, I have a Sony a6300 camera, which records 4K footage using XAVC S codec. I’ve learned that this is a consumer codec for Sony’s consumer cameras. GoPro Studio is able to recognize and load the 4K footage, but the process is very choppy. Does GoPro Studio natively support XAVC S codec? How can I edit a6300 XAVC S 4K footage in GoPro Studio smoothly? Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks.”
