Just got a Git2, and when playing back a video on VLC Media player frame-by-frame, I have to forward two frames to see any difference in the picture? Is this camera supposed to have true 60fps? Or is it just doubling frames to fake it?
60fps? Really

Try to use as player the MPC-HC. 60fps is real, but in older firmwares when light was not enough the fps were doubled.
Starting with fw. 1.6 the fps will remain 60 also in low light conditions but the image will be darker than in previous firmwares.

i guess it depends on your PC. i didn't have to do anything special in vlc for 1080p60 videos to play properly. then again, my pc is a core i7 (ivy bridge) w/ 32gb ram (dell optiplex 9010, made in late 2012). works fine w/ linux mint 17.2 or win10.
Look on google for this problem and you see that is common. Maybe is graphics card depend. I just give a tip which help me and few of my friends. I have i7 too and 60FPS was choppy (only in VLC).
Btw. ram amount doesn't matter, 8GB is enought to watch even 4K videos. More ram not mean PC will be faster π

yeah, i'm just using the onboard intel video. and yes, i know how ram works. this computer was a "freebie" from work - they got some demo machines from dell and decided not to buy this model, and they didn't want a user to accidentally end up with this one-off, so i basically got a free pc. if it wasn't small-form-factor, i would have long since installed an nvidia card in it, but i don't think they make half-height cards. besides - i don't game that much anymore, and the games i DO play (like portal stories mel and flight/driving sims) aren't as demanding, so the onboard video is good enough for me, even at 1080p. i haven't tried running the games at 4k now that i have a 4k monitor, but honestly, 1080p is good enough. ever since i got married and had kids, there's just no time for games anymore.
for me, 8gb would be plenty for my normal work, even the video editing i do. having 32 certainly doesn't hurt tho - it might make the rendering happen faster, but i don't care since most times i click render and then go to bed, to let it run overnight - even a 20 minute video often takes over an hour to render at 1080p - depends on how many effects i used.
So it explains why You have no problems with 60fps playback in VLC player π Possible AMD cards cause problems. Check if You can use OpenCL in video editing software to accelerate rendering process. I use Vegas Pro 12 and 1 hour 1080p 60FPS video take less than 50 min to render. OpenCL uses CPU and GPU power.

dunno if openCL is supported in linux and kdenlive, which is where i do my video editing. VSDC is what i used in windows, but i've gotten to like kdenlive a lot more so that's my preference.
if all i'm doing is cutting clips together with no text or PiP overlays, no pan/zoom/etc, no audio effects, etc... then yes, rendering is quick. but PiP in particular really slows it down.
one other factor that could be slowing down my rendering times is that i use an external usb 2.0 sata dock and a 3.5" 1.5tb sata drive to store all my clips (and it's where i render to as well so it sees a lot of traffic during rendering). i have a proper usb3 enclosure for the drive on my amazon wishlist, but it's not real high priority on my list of wants right now. like i REALLY want to fix this annoying rattle/squeak in my Rav4's back hatch before i replace a fully functional hdd dock. the noise has gotten to the point to where i'm thinking about replacing the entire back door with one from the "sport" model that doesn't have the spare tire on the outside of the door. that would mean i'd lose almost all of the "trunk" space i have below the rear floor because i'd have to put a compact spare tire in there... because i'm not about to try rigging a tire onto the roof rack, and DEFINITELY not spending the money on run-flat tires!
