Why Do Stitching Lines Appear?
The main causes for visible stitching seams are typically physical obstructions or the use of non-optimized software.
- Physical Obstructions: Any object too close to the camera's lenses—especially on the top or bottom of the body—can block the view and confuse the stitching algorithm.
- Third-Party Software: Using video editing software not designed for your AKASO 360 camera may not correctly process the dual fisheye footage, leading to poor stitching results.
Solutions to Achieve Perfect Stitching
Follow these steps to eliminate stitching lines from your videos.
1. Check for and Remove Physical Obstructions
Before you start recording, always ensure that the area around the camera is clear.
- Inspect the Lenses: Make sure your fingers, straps, or any part of the mount are not covering the lenses.
- Use a Compatible Mount: The mounting bracket (like a selfie stick or tripod) should not be wider than the camera itself. A mount that is too wide will appear in the camera's field of view and cause stitching errors.
2. Use Official AKASO Software for Processing
This is the most crucial step for flawless results. The official software is specifically calibrated for your camera model.
- AKASO 360 App: Use the app on your mobile device to edit and export videos. It automatically applies the correct stitching profile.
- AKASO 360 Studio: For desktop editing, download and use AKASO 360 Studio. This powerful software gives you the best possible video quality with optimized stitching.
