I have not been able to determine exactly how it marks the video, but that seems to be a relatively new addition to GoPro, so I would be surprised if PD could read the tags. __________________________________

Quote: Is there a way to read the hilight tags when importing video shot with GoPro?

I'm using a Hero3+ Blk Ed and import GoPro clips directly into PDR13 (don't use GoPro Editor)but didn't know anout the tags. How do you want to use them?

Thanks

For vacations I put the GoPro on the windshield and capture the trip. When I see something interesting I add the hilight tag and maybe say something if the tag isn't obvious. I recently made the Amtrak ride from LA to Portland. Now I have 17 hours of video to go through looking for the notable parts. I've been setting the speed to x16 to shorten the video except for the parts that are interesting. Also the hilight tag works for tracking where we are at. I add a tag then audio for position (town/train station) so I can add a title overlay in the video.

Hi Jsk01_72 -

I think Jaime-esque might be right about this. It seems that the hilight tags are only read by (a) the camera, (b) GoPro Studio & (c) the GoPro smartphone app.

HiLight Tag Video

For your purposes, you might be best to work with the clips in GoPro Studio first to isolate your hilight tagged clips.

It appears that the tags are stored inside the MP4 file itself in GoPro-specific data "boxes." All the gory details are *here*

While this isn't something that PD can do at the moment, it's probably worth putting into the *Cyberlink, listen to this suggestion* thread if you think that other people would like to be able to access them without the native GoPro apps.
