Re: [Announce] I am here - Request GPS position and more with SMS
 

Additional Info, just played around a bit

first i tried cam-image with healthcheck, black also :(

installed mirror

dependencies were

gstreamer0.10-plugins-good-extra, gstreamer0.10-plugins-good, libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10-0 libspeex1

mirror + healthcheck showed a image (within healthcheck it was green color only?)

tried activating imhere again, received image, but with size 0

[Edit] - had to reboot twice for non 0-sized pix, now i get green images like in healthcheck again, not useful. mirror-app works ok, backcam image is ok also.

I have just uploaded new version to extras-devel server, now have to wait untill it gets to extras-devel repositories. However if everything goes well new version fixing auto_connect issues will be available shortly. I have also improved the image quality.

I have done a lot of studies on camera hardware manipulation, but it seems that the front camera is very resistive :) The driver does not want to play with it nicely :) Moreover plugin for jpeg compression does not do the job well either.... it seems to be somewhat buggy. I was able to get a "very nice" looking video stream comparing to "mirror" application (btw. I can offer some help if new version of mirror app is coming), but capturing image is completely different story...
INSTALLATION

Old version is not compatible with new version, configuration files are located in different places, e-mail authentication has been changed, so FIRST UNINSTALL old version of application, BEFORE INSTALLING new version

Btw. You need to have uninstall checkbox selected to remove/uninstall/upgrade/update or whatever else :)

Fixes to known issues:
-auto_connect value is read before the reports are started, if needed the app will chang it to "Any" and after the auto_connection is not needed, it will reset the auto_connect to previous state. However, I am not disconnecting the connection automatically. You can use "Autodisconnect" application for that purpose.
-passwords with character like "_" or "£" did not work. They still don't, I have disabled possibility to use some of the characters.
- "." issue in the e-mail address couldn't be repeated by me, so I don't know if it still exxisting
-black pictures or 0 sized. I have increased to buffer number of frames coming from the camera before taking picture. It should help this problem. However as I have written before, the front camera hardware is quite bad, so if there is no sunlight, don't expect to see anything on the picture before the manipulation. I have actually found that using "auto fix" in default windows Vista image viewer can make miracles with totally black pictures :D

IT IS AVAILABLE IN EXTRAS_DEVEL

UTILITIES -> "I am here"

That, means, you don't have to install anything extra anymore, all plugins will come togehter with one install click.

And remember, read what is written on the screen! :D

Edit: Anyone, who does not want to search for it in app manager can download it from my page, look at the signature...

HOOOOO -- RAY !!!!!! :D

Yes thanks you for your apps ;)

Re: [Announce] I am here - Request GPS position and more with SMS
 

Earlier in this thread someone suggested adding an additional feature for recording 30 seconds of audio from the microphone and including that as an additional email attachment. I'd like to cast a second vote for that feature.

Re: [Announce] I am here - Request GPS position and more with SMS
 

So, there are now few things considered for the implementation:

1. Add IP address to every e-mail
2. Add possiblity to use command line with SMS
3. Audio recording
4. Play a sound, for example, when phone is on silent mode.

More? :)

I will try to implement them, when again I will get some free days for maemo development, however I will be quite busy next 1-2 weeks

Quick hijack about this thread, nobody move for a while! How can i get front cam to take picture from terminal? Can i do it without this program to be installed? Just by ssh to my n900 and then?
