Sync Camera epoch time with PC time #82

Closed ShankssD closed 2 years ago

ShankssD commented 2 years ago

Hi,

I was just wondering if there was a way to sync the camera's epoch time with that from the PC (such as the value from time.time() in python). I would like to do this so that the timestamps I recieve from the camera are the current RealWorld time rather than time since boot of the camera.

I have tried setting PTPMode to 'slave' and then setting the PTPAcquisitionGateTime but I do not think this is correct. Any help appreciated !!

Thanks

Hi! Have this problem been solved? I also found the timestamp provided by Frame.get_timestamp() is not in Unix timestamp format, how can I transform it by using PTP?

Thank you for your help! Much appreciated
