I have approx 50% luck with this. I use my cameras in aviation, and approx 50% of the time the external mic input is recognized and I get great ATC audio, 50% of the time it isn't recognized and I just get flightdeck noise. I don't know if I need to plug the mic cable in AFTER the camera is started, before, after recording starts, before etc to ensure it is recognized. Also is there any way to verify via a menu that it senses the external input?

sit down when you get time, and do that theory because older models were never resolved with fixes, as they offered newer models in their places, you may be better off retiring the camera, selling off, and updating, technology has advanced with Bluetooth, where you can hook a Rx, and mic/3.5mm into the system.

Hero 13 while a hero 14 Sept 2025 if gopro can keep up with Technology
Dji Action 5 Pro, or Action 4 with a USB C to 3.5mm adapter, or Dji adapter, or bluetooh
Insta ace pro 2 and more then you can imagine option for mics over the above

EIther the promic connection or its software is an issue. sorry but not many will report in on this but best of luck in the options you have
