UPDATE – BLACK FRAMES in 1080p60
I’ve now noticed that the black frames were not present in the original files, they only appeared after the files were imported into iMovie. It therefore looks likely that this is an iMovie bug rather than any issue with the Cube+.
UPDATE 2 – You may be interested to know that the Cube+ WiFi utilises the 802.11N standard…this explains the snappy WiFi streaming performance. I couldn’t find the specs for this anywhere, but an interrogation of the WiFi signal shows that it’s 802.11n 2.4ghz.
***BATTERY-LIFE BATTERY-LIFE BATTERY-LIFE BATTERY-LIFE BATTERY-LIFE***
It was mentioned and shown on screen at 00:26 as being up to 90mins.
In my tests in 1080p30 I got 85 Minutes with WiFi off or 75 mins with WiFi on)
