Years ago was using ubersense but pitching and hitting coaches switched to coaches eye, thus we made the change as well. At softball camps seems like I'm hearing more Popeyes talk about coaches eye software. We have a GoPro for our team and now that coaches eye works with it (haven't tried it yet), should be nice. I never had any issues with ubersense. These two video apps is like Ford and Chevy.

Not seeing the video on my screen.
It's a Vimeo video. I don't think their player works well on mobile devices. Here's the link:

Hudl Technique on tablet. Kinovea on desktop--it's a great free open source program. Interested to see how Coach's Eye work with GoPro. I recorded all of our fall games with a GoPro and I was not impressed with the outcome. The angle is just too wide to get quality video on hitters. Anyone else experience this?
It really depends on which GoPro. If it was one of the entry GoPro's (plan Hero or Hero+LCD) they only have ultrawide Field Of View (FOV). This would certainly be too wide. However, the other Hero 4 cameras (the Silver and Black) have additional options: Wide, Medium and Narrow. If you just want the batters, then Narrow FOV usually does a good job. Medium should still capture the entire field from first to third, yet still show plenty of hitter detail.
Here is a short game clip set on med on my GoPro silver. Pretty satisfied with what can be seen. Like my 3B missing the initial hit. I've prob shown it to her 10 times lol. At least she made the tag.

Not sure which thread you were asking about, but I think you are talking about GoPro pairing up with Coach's Eye. They have recently added this functionality in Coach's Eye. From the app, you can remotely start and stop the GoPro, as well as import the video into your Coach's Eye library for semi-instant analysis. Hope this answers your question.

I've been using the White 3. Set it up at dugout focused on hitters. The only way to zoom in is afterwards within gopro studio and the footage become too grainy. I am using an sandisk extreme sd card as well. I originally wanted to sync up 3 cameras for 3 different angles--I went with the white 3 because it was the cheapest model that allowed wireless syncing. But now after using the gopro all fall, I am thinking about switching to this camera: Sony Handycam CX405 Flash Memory Camcorder Black HDRCX405B - Best Buy
