Improve Capture Pilot

Andrew Urban
Like the title says, improve capture pilot! It has never been a reliable or stable app since its inception. The never ending game of myself or one of my digital techs apologizing to clients and art direction on set because of the glitches and crashes is getting old and annoying. Here’s a snippet from a support ticket that resulted in sending me a link to here… I can not pinpoint an exact iOS, capture version, or capture pilot version as I work with different digital techs shooting different all the time. Sometimes my computer and iPad, sometimes the techs, sometimes the companies. But all computer are running the newer Mac bases chips, all iPads are newer within the past couple years, and versions of capture are either 22 or 23. None the less, the behavior of capture pilot has been the same for years. Buggy, glitchy, and crashes… constantly. I had a day where I could document its behavior on set (oddly enough, it didn’t crash 10+ times like it did the job before) but here is what I got… -images flickering -images not appearing when reshooting into a previous capture folder -random images not rendering -again images not appearing when reshooting into a previous capture folder -again images not appearing when reshooting into a previous capture folder -random images not rendering -random images not rendering -again images not appearing when reshooting into a previous capture folder -again images not appearing when reshooting into a previous capture folder -again images not appearing when reshooting into a previous capture folder -images flickering -server connection error So yea, please make Capture Pilot stable app as a flawless running version could be an extremely helpful tool on set.

    Hey Andrew Urban, thanks for the feedback!

    We also offer a similar yet slightly different modern cloud solution that may interest you, Capture One Live.

    Here are a few quick tutorials so you can see how it works:

    Yes, I am aware of capture one live. Are you aware that digital techs don’t like it and swear that a buggy capture pilot is still a better option on set?

    Not surprised! So are there any plans on improving Capture Pilot and making it a more stable app?
