Video stream save to SD-Card? #3

Closed xpix closed 9 years ago

xpix commented 9 years ago

Wonderful project, dave if it possible to add the feature to save the video stream to SD-Card during the fly and send also still images via SSDV?

Photography is controlled by the "camera" shell script. You could very easily edit this to take a short video, then a still image for the SSDV, then repeat.

The GPU supports creating a jpeg "on the fly" from the video every few seconds, say, but I don't know if there's software support for it yet.
Take a look at the latest raspivid program to see if it does.

We don't plan to add the above to the PITS software ourselves.

Thanks for ur fast answer, ok another solution. Make 1minute videos and extract a picture via ffmpeg for SSDV. Here an example:

ffmpeg -i video.h264 -y capture%d.jpg

I want to try this :)
