Recording video on the D5300

Post by kivipea »

Hello everyone!

Since I'm cheap I thought this program would be a good free alternative to buying an external monitor.
At the moment everything works, except for video recording. Going into Live View works but as soon as I press the button to start recording, the view freezes and the camera goes out of live view mode.
I'm using a Nikon D5300, running the program on OSX, connected using the built-in Wi-Fi. Camera is on firmware v1.01.
I read a couple of posts on this forum and understood that recording video would be possible on this camera.
Am I doing something wrong? Is it just not supported?
Any help would be gladly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Video recording will not work in remote mode if the camera wireless connection is used. This is a camera limitation and it is noted in your camera manual.
