FlyScan is a free application for Windows and OSX that converts video + SRT file into geotagged jpg sequence.
FlyScan reads a video file and a .SRT track generated by the camera of the DJI Inspire1, and creates a sequence of geotagged jpg images.

when you finish the flight, copy from the camera to the computer:

call them all with the
same name, only changing the extension.
