[Discussion] Use of GPX file, joining files, multiple recordings #28
Comments
Thanks for your thoughts... if you concatenated the GPX files for the various short trips, then the existing code would work almost without change - just would need to not crop the GPX file to the movie, which is easy. |
If I were to run the ffmpeg command by hand, what is the ffmpeg command for chaining two consecutive but detached videos (I stopped recording and restarted it) without losing telemetry data? I tried to figure it out by examining the ffmpeg.py file and made several attempts, but without success (unfortunately I'm not very experienced). |
Based on a few issues raised with joining MP4s and preserving the metadata, I'm going to look into how this might be done. |
It is possible to use exiftool to extract a cumulative GPX file across multiple source MP4s. Presumably, you can feed that GPX to gopro-overlay. (Forgive my ignorance that I'm not currently aware if the GPX data "stream" will take precedence over the MP4 telemetry stream--I guess in my ideal universe, I can have multiple sources of telemetry and pick and choose amongst them). It seems like all the pieces are available, just need to be glued together suitably. |
I realise not much has happened on this thread for a while... but I'm doing some refactoring that should mean that we can get some movement on this.... |
I was thinking a bit on what I would need to be able to use gopro-overlay for my use case. My outings are 1-2 hours long and at the moment I'm turning the camera on/off 'cause the battery only lasts an hour or so. In the end, I may want to watch almost the whole recording for myself with overlay, but I really want to produce a 3-10 minute collage of highlights. So, what I've observed:
Does this sound reasonable? I'm not expecting you to implement everything, I can pitch in too, just want to hear whether this matches others' use-cases too.
