Does anyone know why I'm getting these bubbles in all my videos?

Maybe they are UFO's !!!! :mrgreen:

They appear to be a reflection of the screws in your dash panel, no?

I think you are correct. I've got a short extension for the GoPro mount coming today to try to raise the camera so the dash panel won't show in the video. That might solve the problem. If not, I'll get some black fingernail polish and paint the screws black.

The black nail polish sounds like a good idea.

The appropriate terminology is now UAP (unknown aerial phenomena).
The opinions posted are those of one CFI, and do not necessarily represent the FAA or its lawyers.
