Video capture

Hi,

Can this be used for shooting video?
Now or in the near future

Thank you

It can be used yes.
There is no commands right now that do that for you automatically.
You can check the interface MovieLogic but it is empty.

I have not tested to do movie yet so I have not implemented it.

It is welcomed if you are going to implement some video logic then do a PR or other then I can check myself and try it.

Also there are different type of video:

• there is the live view with image download, but not sound and it might not be able to have high FPS
• real movie but it has to be recorded on SD card then download manually once movie is finished
• maybe third option with streams but I have not investigated more

Ok, thanks
Now there is no strong need for this
A little later I will try to implement logic, if you do not do it :)

@skit4214 hi did you have opportunity to write some commands to support video?

I'm also interested in video. I'm not very familiar with this SDK though and the documentation looks almost as fun as NetSuite's. I did see this on how to do it though:

Thanks.
I know the commands and how to do a movie with the SDK, it is just that I have no time to work on it.
And I have no clients that paid me to implement it, they do not require video capture.
