Videos played from the phone storage work fine. But things don’t go well straight from the camera. I’m thinking more about problems/limitations with the WiFi connection. 2.4GHz is not the fastest connection. Hence the message to first download the file to your phone.
Given the fact that the K5 recordings (can) be large files, direct playback from the camera is not the best option. Download delays do not have to be a problem. But direct playback from the K5 is and remains difficult if the connection is not optimal.
I see the WiFi connection more as a handy tool to set up the K5 wirelessly with the app. I never view directly from the K5 and downloading is quickest and easiest by inserting the SD card into the computer.
I hope to be able to do a test with direct viewing from the camera myself soon. I’m curious if I’m experiencing the same WiFi problem.
