does the wireless interface show up under `ifconfig`? (eg. wlan0)

What are you trying to record, from where with what desired results?

I am trying to record my webcam, and I expect it to well... record decent quality videos with fully working audio without all the lag.

Hii there, so I'm trying to get my pi to be a portable recording box... but unfortunately I can only get unworkable results so far. I get very low FPS (about 7FPS) and very bad audio (just a bunch of noise with the actual thing it should record, which cuts off all the time) using ffmpeg. here is the...

right now I'm waiting for my pi to compile ffmpeg... let's hope I can get to work once it's done...

Figured out these infos about my webcam:
Video part is found on: /dev/video0
audio part is found on hw:1,0

now how can I record both of them at the same time with 1080p30fps or 720p30fps...

Thanks, I'll try to look into the code you gave me.
Also, as far as I can see, it's only for startting the recording, but how about stopping the recording? (which is the main problem)

Hii there, thanks for your responses. basically what I want is this: button press (will be on raspberry GPIO) --> start recording --> press button again --> stop recording I want it to keep running until I say so with a button press (or if the SD is full of course). I've also tried to look around, b...

Hii there, I want to use my Pi for vlogging and other field work (sound like a dumb idea for some, but I think it can be quite neat as I don't have to buy a expensive camcorder for it) but now I came to the problem: how do start recording without having to grab my phone, SSH into the pi, and start m...

Thanks, I managed to solve it

hii there guys, I build this python script, but it is not working properly. http://pastebin.com/SzrKHUen it says that google.com on port 80 is down, whilist ofcourse, it isn't. I know it should be a bug somewhere in the code, but I can't find it as I started python like half an hour ago. can someone...

Managed to solve it.
for those who are curious: don't hit on the `start Visual Studio Remote Debugger` button in the control panel.

I have followed that tutorial, but I get `Failed to launch remote debugger with following error: 'Command failed: 0x800705b4'.`
when I do `tlist` on the Pi trough PowerShell, I see 2 times `msvsmon.exe` (which is how it is supposed to be as far as I know)

Hii there, I downloaded the `PythonBlinkyServer` sample from the MS github, but when I try to deploy it I get an error message. now trough some googling I managed to figure out that I should enable the `Universal (Unencrypted Protocol)`-Authentication in Visual Studio.. but the problem is: there is ...

How can I make it that my Pi pings a server + port, , sees if it's online and returns true or false accordingly???
Please provide me with code rather than just saying what I should do as I am just starting out
