Hello

I've got the camera module on raspberry. Is there any way to get the camera in /dev like /dev/video ? or making a pipe of raspivid to a file ?


Thanks

There is no /dev/video driver yet, but you can pipe the output to stdout using -o - and pipe that to wherever you want.

e.g.

raspivid -t 3000 -o -

Of course, if you just want to write a file

raspivid -t 3000 -o nameoffile.h264

Thanks,

I'm just searching how to get it working with motion program.

For motion search for mmal and or dozencrows ... He has written code to make the pi camera work well with motion...

THanks a lot !

Great job here : http://www.raspberrypi.org/phpBB3/viewt ... dozencrows
