[Feature Request] Show Previous Image Capture During Countdown #211

Open whatzat opened 4 years ago

whatzat commented 4 years ago

Hello,

First time github poster here so apologies if I am breaking any rules with this inquiry.

I would really like to be able to replace the live preview function utilized during count down with a static image of the previous capture (using an old camera which lacks live view capability...). I am a novice any sort of programming and in a little over my head here. This feature does not need to have fancy integration with the current settings menu, it just needs to work. Can someone offer up some advice or direction (or code for that matter) that could help make this dream a reality?

I am setting up a DIY photobooth for my wedding in October and decided to use reuterbal's application. I'm really happy I did! So far I have modified the UI through the stylesheet and loaded a custom photobooth splash page. In addition there is a Flask app to server the images via a custom website on a local network during the wedding. I am loving the project so far just looking to go that extra mile and learn some programming basics in the process.

Cheers, Nick

havent tried this repo yet, just found it so arent 100%sure on this, but you would need a conditional here thst Checks for previous photo and shows that instead if the mirror class.
