Re: string stamp on cam pic taken

Judging from the code you've provided, I'd guess that convert relates the convert provided with imagemagick. sudo apt-get install imagemagick that worked but importing the settings dont work now. Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/pi/Desktop/cookie/timestamp_pic.py", line 5, in <module>...

Break the task down in to smaller parts and identify what you need to do and learn how to do it. Happy to help if you get stuck but you need to learn how to do things for yourself....

Re: string stamp on cam pic taken

It saves the data in JSON format and can be easily extended to support adding more settings to the file. Probably total overkill for your application but it should work impor...
