On Planet Maemo today there was an article by Daniel Gentleman (aka thoughtfix) about the lack of camera functionality on the N800, together with a link <http://web.media.mit.edu/%7Elifton/snippets/n800_to_sl/> to streaming video off the N800, which, alas, didn't quite work for me.
But with a little experientation: 0) Install all the gstreamer stuff as per link; 1) On the platform (172.31.0.245), to a Linux box (172.31.0.244), the following (slightly modified from n800_to_sl link), as ~/bin/rtpstream.sh #!/bin/sh VPORT=5434 APORT=5432 HOST=${1:-172.31.0.244} gst-launch-0.10 v4l2src ! \ video/x-raw-yuv,width=176,height=144,framerate=\(fraction\)15/1 ! \ hantro4200enc stream-type=1 profile-and-level=1001 ! \ video/x-h263,framerate=\(fraction\)15/1 ! rtph263ppay mtu=1438 ! \ udpsink host=$HOST port=$VPORT dsppcmsrc ! queue ! \ audio/x-raw-int,channels=1,rate=8000 ! mulawenc ! rtppcmupay mtu=1438 ! \ udpsink host=$HOST port=$APORT 2) On the Linux box, the .sdp file from the n800_to_sl link, with host address, i.e. /tmp/n800.sdp v=0 o=- 37 614155991 IN IP4 127.0.0.0 s=QuickTime t=0 0 a=range:npt=now- m=audio 5432 RTP/AVP 0 c=IN IP4 172.31.0.245 b=AS:63 m=video 5434 RTP/AVP 96 c=IN IP4 172.31.0.245 a=rtpmap:96 H263-2000/90000 a=fmtp:96 a=cliprect:0,0,144,176 a=framesize:96 176-144 3) On the N800, pop out the camara and run: $ ~/bin/rtpstream.sh # assume on PATH, +x etc. 4) On Linux box: $ vlc /tmp/n800.sdp 5) Watch in amazement. Can't wait for SIP compatible video from Rtcomm ... please. -jh _______________________________________________ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users
