Date and time overlap #491

If possible, please add a date and time overlay to the video stream. It would be very convenient to see this when viewing the archive.

Sorry but it's not possible.

I guess it is likely to achieve this by rewriting video files from the camera RTSP stream, rather than having it from recorded files on the camera.

The cam should decode the h264 video stream, add the tag and then encode again the stream. There are no resources to do this job.

Yes, that's what I am saying. Not on the camera, instead, do this job at a client end when reading the stream and encode the stream into video files with timestamp added, using ffmpeg or other tools.

Yes, you are right. Maybe it's better with a hardware accelerated device.

If so, is it possible to expect this dream to come true? :)
