Starling 2 Thermal Camera Suggestions
-
@buem799 Glad to hear it is working now. voxl-portal has custom support for various cameras coming through our voxl-camera-server. It does not yet have any support for UVC cameras. Not sure why VLC cannot connect. What version of VLC are you using? voxl-inspect-services only shows the status of services started via systemd. It doesn't show you things that you start on the command line. QGC just shows the video so I don't think you can add those features there. Would you rather do upscaling / object detection directly on VOXL 2 or on a connected computer?
@buem799 I had some RTSP VLC struggles a while back. Check out the link I posted at the bottom of this post here

@Eric-Katzfey
I'm using VLC 3.0.16.
Okay, thanks for the clarification.
Not 100% sure but ideally we would do the upscaling/object detection on VOXL2 because I would assume we cannot guarantee constant connection to a connected computer. -

@groupo
Thanks for the advice. Not sure if I'm missing something but I cannot find the setting mentioned in the post.
Additionally, i don't really understand the ffplay part, is that still in VLC or would that be in the terminal or something else still?
Sorry, if this doesn't make too much sense I'm still quite new to linux and drones. -

If you read through it, the fix was for a windows machine, which I was using at the time. It states further down in the reddit post that live555 support was removed in newer versions of ubuntu (linux operating system). From your screenshots, it looks like you are using ubuntu, so it could make sense that VLC may not work. I believe it is more a ubuntu issue rather than VLC. Don't try to dig into that, especially if you are new to linux. I would install ffmpeg on your system and try to access the RTSP stream using that. I just asked ChatGPT for the commands to do that and will paste below:
sudo apt install ffmpegId recommend asking Chat how to access an RTSP stream using ffplay, or read the documentation
The other thing you could do, if you had a windows laptop, you could connect the windows laptop to the drone wifi and try to access the RTSP stream via VLC on windows and do the fix included in the reddit link
