This command should work for you:

./exiftool -api largefilesupport -ee -p '$gpsdatetime,$gpslatitude,$gpslongitude'  'rawvideos/VID_002.insv' > VID_002.csv

I tested it with a smaller INSV file and it works fine.

If you want to list all available tags, you can use this command:

./exiftool -s -ee rawvideos/VID_002.insv

Hi Phil,

Thanks a lot for all your support.
I am getting results now.
However the result from Linux is different than the windows.
Linux: 2019:10:02 14:09:38Z,40 deg 38' 24.62" N,73 deg 58' 1.64" W
Windows: 2019:10:02 13:06:07Z 40.69177316 -73.99179094

Is it possible to get the same windows format from linux?

Thanks,
Yamuna.

You are using a config file on windows to change the default coordinate format.

Hi Phil,

No I am not using any config in windows. Just downloaded the exe and executed.

Thanks,
yamuna.

You will only get that result with the Windows command if you use a config file.  There must be a default config file named ".ExifTool_config" in either your home directory or the exiftool app directory.

Hello everyone, fantastic job, Phil!

I've been extracting the Insta360 data successfully. It's my first time using Exiftool and I find the interface very user friendly. I have a couple of questions.

- I am using the -m option in order to extract all the accelerometer data. That seems to work well, but am I going to hit the Windows output size limitation with large files? Is there a way to prevent that, like requesting the data chunk by chunk, with an increasing offset or something similar?

- The accel data is "timecode" based. The timecode is in seconds but it does not start at zero. I have tried assuming the first samples correspond to the first frame, but there seems to be a slight offset (the data seems a bit delayed, so maybe some data samples before the first video frame are retained). Does anyone know what that timecode is relative to? The video track timecode does start at zero, and I cannot find any tag that resembles that value, to use as a base offset

Really appreciated

Currently it is all or nothing.  If you run into memory limitations, you can switch to the 64-bit version.

I'll take a look at my Insta360 samples when I get a chance to see if I can see anything, but I think the chances are small that I'll see anything obvious.  Do you have any software that shows the accelerometer data at the correct time?

Thanks for having a look. I'm not aware of any software that displays the accelerometer data. Insta's own software uses it for stabilisation, but nothing more, as fas as I know. I created this visualization to show the offset: https://youtu.be/z6aFhLs3wHo

And in case it's useful, here's the original file https://we.tl/t-DJjjrpeV2Y

Run this command to see everything that is available, and how it is grouped:

exiftool -ee -G3 FILE

You can modify the gpx.fmt file to write anything you want.

The only tag that I can imagine having that sort of data would be

[Main]          Parameters                      : 1 2576.934 2014.997 1506.038 0.291 -0.115 89.496 4056 3040 1058

Are those parameters known?

Hi,

I have been trying to extract the GPS data from an insv file and found ExifTool and this forum by extension (thank you btw), so I have been trying to follow the posts in this thread but I can't quite get it to work, but I'm not sure if it's because the data isn't actually present in the video, and not user error.

(On OS X) I ran:


exiftool -api largefilesupport -ee -p '$gpsdatetime,$gpslatitude,$gpslongitude'  'VID_20200511_143314_10_002.insv' > test.csv


and I get

Code Select

Warning: [Minor] Tag 'gpsdatetime' not defined - VID_20200511_143314_10_002.insv


The resulting csv file is also empty.

If I run:


exiftool -s -ee VID_20200511_143314_10_002.insv


I get

Code Select

ExifToolVersion                 : 12.03

Warning                         : End of processing at large atom (LargeFileSupport not enabled)


Is there something I'm doing wrong or is it just that the GPS data isn't actually present?

Cheers,
Martin

Hi Martin,

Try adding -api largefilesupport to that last command (and maybe add "-gps*" to avoid getting all the other tags).

so, no GPS data? At least it explains why - thanks for the help!

The "no matches found" error is from the shell, not ExifTool:  The -gps* requires quotes: "-gps*"

But in the full output, I don't see any GPS tags.
