1 month ago Assuming you mounted your volumes using the default destinations in the docker-compose.yml file, the videos should be in the folder /mnt/ethoscope_data/videos/. They are copied there from the service called ethoscope_video_backup which should be running by default even with the docker container.
Keep in mind the Docker solution is still rather experimental. If you can, I'd advise using a dedicated installation.
Logging with the docker can be accessed using the docker command: docker logs ethoscope-node. If the service runs normally, you should see something like:
ethoscope_video_backup.service: INFO:root:Starting backup round
ethoscope_video_backup.service: INFO:root:Found 0 devices online:
ethoscope_video_backup.service: INFO:root:Backup finished at t=1715940387
ethoscope_video_backup.service:

Dear Dr. Gilestro,
We are using the Ethoscope platform for the behavioral monitoring of flies. We have successfully tracked flies using the track option on the node, and the backup is stored at /mnt/ethoscope_data/results/0011837902f74aaf86c865e45a1126ca/ETHOSCOPE_001.
However, when we click the record video button, the recording starts, and the video is saved on the Ethoscope device. Unfortunately, no video can be found on the node. We have looked into the available solution here (https://github.com/gilestrolab/ethoscope/issues/146), but since we are using Docker, we cannot run systemctl commands.
Please let us know how we can troubleshoot or what information can help you to rectify this issue.
Ethoscope device:
