Camogmgui - Graphical User Interface for the camogm video to HDD / CF recorder.
Elphel Development Diary
Tried logging in to sandboxcam1.elphel.com (root/pass) via ftp using filezilla and smartftp. No success, connection gets reset during login sequence (maybe some problem with passive mode) Finally worked using WinSCP (Protocol: SCP)
There seems to be some problem with PHP execution on this camera. Need to find out more about it.
Hurray - Restarting lighthttpd helped (cd to /etc/init.d and then ./lighttpd restart)
First test of camogm gui php script was successful. I was able to select codec and write destination. I got the camera to write a 21mb quicktime mov file. Stopping the record was a little difficult as the camera barely responded to requests anymore once the recording started. I was not able to open the written mov file in a player here though. I now that the record only stopped because there was no more free space available on the cameras internal memory which would also explain why the file was corrupted.

Thanks Alexandre for the hint with the disk. There is a 40GB HDD connected to this cam which was not formated or mounted at first. After finding out how this had to be done I mounted it at /var/hdd/. I was finally able to write video files to this space that I could download and watch in quicktime player. lighthttp and httpd now seem very unstable and I need to restart them quite often. When restarting they output some debug info about problems.
Starting a camogm recording gave me these errors now:
Starting recording 1: state->cirbuf_rp=0x0 3: state->cirbuf_rp=0x0 4:lseek(state->fd_circ,CIRCLSEEK_READY,SEEK_END)=0 5: state->cirbuf_rp=0x0 Dropping attempt to start
Please elphel team: what does the above mean?

It probably mean that the compressor was not started. How do you configure the camera before starting the camogm recording ? The best way would be : http://sandboxcam1.elphel.com/camera_demo.php

Thanks, that was indeed the case. I thought it would be only normal that the compressor was "stopped" when not recording anything.
