Hello all, sorry for the cross-posting,
So my final questions are:
- What codec should I use for 300,000 frames (14GB or so) and is well
suited to build from jpg frames? What container?
as marc has pointed out: mjpegtools
you can also use ppmtompeg (on debian this is part of netpbm) to create an mpeg out of a series of images (despite of the "ppm" in the name they can also be jpegs)
Oh and Johannes, I do have the v4l_compat module loaded, so I don't know why xawtv reads my v4l2 video stream but Gem does not. Any ideas?
so the current problem is freezing (not just being unable to connect to the driver) ? are you using pd's realtime flag ?
you could try running everything in gdb and then kill the process when it freezes and then get a backtrace to see where it was when it froze.
