We're planning to do S.L.P. Raspbian image update.
Known bugs (v0.2.3):
- FIle manager in Admin panel is using some external JS scripts. When StereoPi admin panel is accessed within a network without Internet, admin page design is broken. We are plan to copy all JS onboard.
- Expand root partition from 2Gb to 4 Gb (so users can install other software). Fix FAT32 auto format according to new 4 Gb size.
- Add "FS readonly" flag to the stereopi.conf
- If one of the cameras is disconnected (bad ribbon connection etc.), sometimes system became inaccessible over network.
- Current video stream splitting (for simultaneous stream to browser, RTMP, recording etc) logic is based on internal UDP data flow. This will be changed to shared memory approach to remove performance bottleneck at high resolutions.
- wifi_iface = wlan0 and 3D in the "stereopi.conf" will be set as defaults
If you've found other bugs - please post them here, and we'll add all of them in our to-do list. We will be pleased if you can describe all steps needed to repeat a bug.
Wishlist (collected from suggestions in this thread):
- Video recording button, current video recording status indicator
- Add "basic presets" for the video (resolution/bitrate/FPS), keep advanced settings
- Move "settings" JS tab to the separate page
- Add "physical button to take photos" onboard, with optimized performance (and, possibly, PHP-independent)
- Shutter speed option (for long-exposure captures)

Re: SLP update discussion
I would add that it would be nice to have a button to record a video more easily, like the photo button does.
It would be even better if this button show the current recording state.

Today, I thought that perhaps you could also add the "classical" 24/25/50 fps video framerates in the selection menu.

Re: SLP update discussion
Ok. But what if the user will decide to set FullHD at 50 fps? I think we need to do either "simple presets" (locking resolution+FPS), or "advanced settings" with some checking logic (like prohibiting 50 FPS for FullHD). Our experience shows, that at the beginning users try to set the maximum available settings for all options, and these settings exceeds hardware abilities.stereomaton wrote: ↑Sun Mar 29, 2020 10:45 pmToday, I thought that perhaps you could also add the "classical" 24/25/50 fps video framerates in the selection menu.
So we have a choice here: either do our interface user-friendly, or give a flexibility and full control on all options.

Re: SLP update discussion
You already have the possibility to set 1080@60
To reduce the risk of bad parameters, proposing presets might be a good idea, but I wish the advanced options would still be accessible some way.
Also, maybe it would be better to have the whole configuration in a separated page in multiple columns — I find it a bit hard to use in practice, especially on mobile device on the field — which in addition will give a good feedback on whether or not you clicked on the save button by returning to the main page.

Re: SLP update discussion
Review the "broken video" issue and test the solution from the Stereomii, mentioned here: viewtopic.php?f=10&t=965
Test, if this issue still exist in a new shared-memory based recording approach.

Hi
I just created a post to explain my project here viewtopic.php?f=16&t=1001
In SLP I didn't see the possibility to adjust the shutter speed, would it be possible to integrate this parameter?
it's not uncommon for my exposure time to exceed one minute (or more).
For long exposure times it is then helpful to have a display of the time remaining during the capture.

Julsboo, I've added your request to the main wishlist. Good suggestion, thank you!

Re: SLP update discussion
I'm trying to set HQ Camera resolution.
Could you add HQ camera in photo resolution parameter?
I modified files index.php and make_photo.php to adapt it to the HQ camera's resolution.
I chose a resolution of -w 6587 -h 3040 to match my smartphone screen.
Each image is vertically cropped for the final stitching? is this the method used?
Thanks

Re: SLP update discussion
Okay, here is the early testers access:
1. SLP 2 image file (800Mb).
2. Update (please install!). Update file 0.8.9 (11 Mb)
To install the update, go to the "System" tab in the "Device settings" and upload this file. Or just put it to the BOOT partition manually.
3. Config file example is attached.
Key notes:
Ethernet access does not require any settings
Default WiFi settings (AP mode) are done for the CM4 or Pi4 (rows 35-43 in the attached file)
For external WiFi configuration (client mode):
- turn off AP mode, i.e. change row 37 "ap_iface=int" to "ap_iface="
- row 67 - change "wifi_iface=" to "wifi_iface=ext"
- rows 70 and 73 - put your WiFi name and password
Note: like with the SLP 1, this image is a simplified version of our Cosmostreamer solution. So don't be confused if you find both StereoPi and Cosmostreamer names in the code.
