Webbased Graphical User Interface for camogm called camogmgui

This interface enables to directly record video to internal camera HDD or CF card using just the browser.

Prerequisites

The latest Version of camogmgui can take care of mounting the HDD for you.

mke2fs /dev/hda1 #format the hdd, naturally required only for the first time

Changelog

Plans for future releases:

• find a way to reliably run camogm or camogm2 from within the script
• fix the frameskip problem
• finally focus on layout and graphic work of the page (make everything smaller, more compact and stylish)
• buy USB soundcard and then add camogm2 features

camogmgui Version 0.4

Version 0.4

Anything hdd mounting related can now be done directly inside the gui. I also added a filebrowser so recorded videos can immediately be downloaded. Advanced settings added. The whole script does not rely on any external resources anymore.

I tried starting camogm from within the script as well, but ran into some problems, stay tuned.

So still: before the script can be used camogm must be started manually via shell:

camogm /var/state/camogm_cmd &

camogmgui_0_4.zip

Version 0.3

Some decent progess here. Lots of ajax scripting done to show filesize, datarate, etc. live while recording video files. Record and stop-record commands are also ajax transmitted which makes the GUI much more responsive. Stability issues seem to be solved now as well.

Again: before the script can be used camogm must be started manually via shell:

camogm /var/state/camogm_cmd &

camogmgui_0_3.zip

Version 0.2

I color labeled the parts of the gui and their current grade of operation. Record Format and destination directory are now read from xml output of camogm to fill in the form. The script now checks if both camogm and compressor are running. If the compressor is not running it can be started directly in the GUI. Camogm can not be started in the GUI yet (crashes...).

Before the script can be used camogm must be started manually via shell:

camogm /var/state/camogm_cmd &

camogmgui_0_2.zip

Version 0.1

Very basic functionality as of now, format/codec can be selected, target directory can be set, record start/stop, audio recording form is already in the file but not functional yet
