Can we have Android Auto going alongside the Dashcam logic?

Looks like yes, you just want to install crankshaft first, then turn on the DEV mode that makes the filesystem writable. Make sure wifi is configured, install docker.io and docker-compose.

The next question is, will the preview work when it's writing directly to the framebuffer already? worst case we can figure out how they're getting the non-android auto preview going so you can turn on the pi, see the preview, and then plug in your phone.

But there's also X11 mode so we have some options. I may recommend this as a base for smartcar if someone has android.

There's some frame buffer fighting that happens when you enable the dashcam preview. I'm going to spin up another container that runs espeak on the host, sending the output to pulseaudio saying the recording is working.

I'll write up a markdown for getting this working on crankshaft.

Best case is ability to tie in with the camera preview page...we'll see if that can be done.

Camera preview tie-in is done.
