ESP32 Camera - Using the SD Card

[@far-red]

That my plan (to figure out writing cam to SD card) but you did all the hard work and all i do is just watch the video and flash, thx, your code works perfect, except as u mentioned pix quality.

[@samuelsnipes3330]

Exactly what i was looking for, thanks for the hard work

[@BasementElectronics]

I'm glad it helped. Thank you for watching.

@@BasementElectronics What microSD capacity do you suggest? 4 GB? and what format did you use for the drive? Thank you!! Please see my comment above asking about an extension of this project too.

Hey man, nice informative Is that possible to use slot 0, for say pin 6,7,8,9 for that how can we change that in. The program?

[@ghoond1314]

what if when i want to only use the sd card module on the esp32-cam, for example if i want to save a file to sd card but only have esp32-cam that already installed the sd card module. am i have to use the sdmmc example or the esp32-cam code?

[@andrewdavis3801]

Hello, is it possible record a video on the ESP 32 Cam and save it to the SD card? How would you do that?

[@BasementElectronics]

It's possible (or should be) and something I've been trying to figure out. I've been a little sidetracked lately, but it's definitely on my list.

[@soovui]

Bravo, can you help to make a video teaching us how to include audio 1 or 2 way communication with additional device? Or any cam board that able to do that?

[@BasementElectronics]

I am working on audio through the ESP boards. So far, it doesn't look straight forward. I hope to have something soon, though

[@FPChris]

So this doesn't display a live preview just blindly snaps the pic?

[@BasementElectronics]

Only because I was lazy. It is possible to show the JPeg stream before snapping the still.

[@FPChris]

That's fine. I'm actually looking for away to get 4-6 cams to grab frames and send them all wirelessly to a pc. Framerate doesn't matter and I don't really need to see each stream.

[@farukz.9904]

Thanks for video. Do you have any idea that can record video to sd card ? Thanks

[@BasementElectronics]

I believe so. I remember looking at it when I researched this video, but I can't remember why I didn't cover it. The video produced by the camera is a JPeg stream. You should be able to stream the video data to your file stream to create a video on the SD card. At some point, I want to get back to the ESP32 camera

[@channelofmanytopics5891]

@@BasementElectronics So recording video from the camera would be as simple as just repeatedly taking pictures?

[@AaronPowell]

Is there a way to use one of these and have RTMP on it ??

[@BasementElectronics]

Maybe - if there's an RTMP implementation available for the ESP platform (I'd have to search). Another option could be to stream the MPeg to another computer running an RTMP server.

[@Swawm]

Thank you for this video! Is there any idea how can I take a photo by pressing another button than reset? I've added this code, but it not seems to be working. pinMode(0, INPUT_PULLDOWN); int buttonValue = digitalRead(0); if (buttonValue == LOW){ Serial.println("Button pressed"); fb = esp_camera_fb_get(); } }
