Not an Issue: METEOR-M M2 IR channel activated

[HZ1SF]

Hi @reynico , I don;t know if you heard but I have seen multiple accounts on twitter posting photos from METEOR-M M2 at night because of the activation of the IR channel. Is there anything we need to do to receive these transmissions?

Hi! I'll push an update to decode the APID 68

Thanks @reynico , when you're done can you please explain what do we need to do? Will I need to redo the whole installation or something else? please forgive my noobness.

Hi @saudfs just update your master copy

cd ~/raspberry-noaa
git fetch && git pull

Recent changes includes a fix on rectify (I've also open a PR on upstream https://github.com/dbdexter-dev/meteor_rectify/pull/4) and enable receive_meteor.sh to parse the .dec file just on APID 68 (IR Channel)

Fantastic, thanks a lot Nico, I'll update in a few seconds.

Nico, I've just posted Meteor image on Twitter (night time here in Italy) but the result is black.

Thanks @reynico , I'll do that now.

Hi @Indr1d-C0ld ! could you please upload the .dec file somewhere so I can check over it?

Sure my friend:

Yes, seems like the bmp to jpg conversion brokes something important at the image file (maybe screwed up headers?)

I pushed a last time commit to fix that: https://github.com/reynico/raspberry-noaa/commit/c842323a22c4f89d4b95fc805df75ca0b115d465

It just feeds rectify with the raw BMP file instead of converting to JPG then moving to rectify

Perfect, awesome work and fast too... keep in touch dear dev, in the meanwhile I've modified those 2 lines in receive_meteor.sh

Great! I'll close this issue for now, feel free to re open it if needed
