How to save captured still image on computer? #63

Open m-hertig opened 3 years ago

Thank you for the great library! I was able to connect my Sony RX100IV to it and to take pictures via camera.actTakePicture(). However I cant figure out how to save the taken picture on my computer instead on the SD card. Can anybody help me on this? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

The "Sony Remote API" protocol is for remote control, it does not allow for saving directly to controlling device., You have to save to the camera and then transfer to Pc/etc. They recently released a new "Camera Remote API" which is different and for the newer cameras... https://developer.sony.com/develop/cameras/get-started

If you can use a lower res image (for preview or framing) you can use the 'livePreview' feature to stream images as a mid-speed fps.
