4K drone footage of the Tiger 131 at Bovington

Hi,

You have probably all seen this but just in case somebody has not:


Although I've not quite worked out how to do 4K screenshots I've got some very helpful pictures.

Cheers

Sam

Hi Sam.
If you are able to screen shot top views of 131 then that would be very useful to have them for that illusive top view detail.
Thanks for posting the video. Steve

Hi Steve,

I think I've managed to take 4k snapshots. The recipe is:
1 - Use VLC (https://www.videolan.org/vlc/index.en-GB.html)
2 - Open the video: https://www.vlchelp.com/stream-online-v ... ia-player/ (you can make a local copy of the video via this route too, not sure how legal that is)
3 - Change the snapshot video size: https://cdn.neow.in/forum/uploads/month ... 657645.png - Set "video snapshot width" to 3840 and "video snapshot height" to 2160.
4 - To take each snapshot: https://www.vlchelp.com/take-picture-snapshot-video/

It seems a shame we don't have a shared/tagged library of images. I guess it would be a bit boring and looking for images is no hardship if time consuming.

btw I still use the CD you gave my Dad.

Regards

Sam

That is awesome! Great way to film a battle reenactment - instead of the bleacher shots with lots of heads in the way! Very cool use of a drone.
