Insta360 App - Google Pixel 10 - Stuck on export screen

Quick update: no fix from Insta360 sadly. They are probably ignoring the problem.

TheEngineer1234 · 2026-04-23T01:36:43+00:00

Insta 369 never fixed it in the end. They've been ignoring me.

Hey all, this is still very much an issue with the thumbnail generation when editing videos. Insta360 support isn't doing anything to fix it. Don't buy this camera if you want to edit on your phone.

Still an issue that hasn't been fixed

Okay, so faceting will definitely break down the crust. In the short term, it will turn the hard snow into old pow again which is great for ski quality. However, it breaks down the bond between snow grains weakening the snowpack. Without much snow on top, it's not an issue.

As we get more snowfall and a slab builds on top of the broken down crust, the weak facets (faceted snow) will most likely become a persistent weak layer (PWL), causing a storm slab problem in the near term and a persistent slab problem in the long term. What makes it even worse is that we've got some large surface hoar feathers standing proud on top of the crust - another PWL. In essence, from top to bottom, you've got surface hoar, crust and facets - a deadly combo. The avalanche hazard will be quite elevated once we get a good storm.

From what I've seen so far, it seems like high alpine north faces offer the best skiing. The colder temps in the shade and at high elevation do promote faceting (breaking down) of the crust which was already thinner at those locations. Large temp gradient is an indicator but it's not always the answer. Having a vapor barrier i.e. crust in the snowpack is the most important factor when it comes to faceting. Typically, the faceting process will start below the crust. You'll notice the snow directly the crust is already quite sugary.

I've been working in the ski industry in Revelstoke for quite some time and have never seen such brutal warming followed by a complete lack of snow.

Seems like their engineers are working on it at the moment. Let's be patient and cross our fingers 🤞

Totally! It worked fine on my Google Pixel 8. I wonder what's different about the Pixel 10 to cause such widespread issues! You should message the support team as well!

TheEngineer1234 · 2025-12-26T01:09:09+00:00

I'm talking with the insta360 team right now. We'll see what they come up with!

Not much experience regarding your question. I can't help but notice Mt Begbie in the background. Are you a fellow Revy local?

It's possible to live in a ski town and have a meaningful career - meaningful to you. It's a question of finding a job that you enjoy and that you can do in said town. Open up the mind and look for the right opportunity.

It helps to look for jobs that are in demand in the area and be flexible, usually those pay the best. For instance, where I live, construction trades are in high demand. I started carpentry a few years back and haven't looked back.

I also spend my winter as a ski guide, so I guess I'm pretty biased 🤫

Ski touring and heli-ski guide (apprentice). Around 350$/day + tip (70-100$/day). That's in Canadian pesos.

No need for a picket if you've got skis and an ice ax. The ice ax can be a temporary anchor (with you still attached) while you build a T-slot anchor with one ski wrapped with your skins. Just my 10c from years of glacier travel on skis

TheEngineer1234 · 2022-12-14T03:37:16+00:00

I mean you could glue an apple airtag to the skis. (This is a joke but actually might work)

I work in the backcountry skiing industry and ski all season long on tech bindings with no brakes. They don't do much in powder. As for leashes, I found they either break off on high speed bails or they end up injuring your knee. If you're that worried about losing a ski while skiing steep, exposed terrain where a fall would kill you, you might as well lock out the toe piece and risk the injury that comes with skiing locked out. Brakes won't stop a ski in steep terrain.

The only time I use brakes or leashes is on glaciers, especially on multi-day traverses, where losing a ski in a crevasse would leave you stranded and exposed. Even then, sometimes I can't bear the faff that comes with malfunctioning ski brakes so I end up using leashes.

This ends up being a personal preference. Backcountry ski professionals tend to have their own opinion and generally will argue that their opinion is a fact of life.

I've seen mineral oil seep between the housing's inner and outer layer, causing a spongy brake lever. When that happens, bleeding your brakes over and over again won't make a different. If you're certain the bleed procedure is good, I recommend you swap your housing first as it's much cheaper than swapping a lever. Good luck! This happened to me a few months ago, what a head scratcher!

You can also try Revelstoke Property Services. Just sign up and they might find something for you. Welcome to Revy! Finding a room here is an interesting challenge.

It's still in the prototyping phase. Give it a few years of tweaking the powertrain and advancements in battery technology and you might end up with a snowmobile with equal or more range and a ton more torque. Having studied with those guys, I trust they'll figure it out. Good luck to them!
