<![CDATA[m500 accessing camera and image stream data]]>Hi team,
I am wondering how to open video view in QGC or there is another app for image viewing? I tried to hit the recording button in QGC, but I got this error:

  1. I am not sure if this button could switch between the map view and video view in QGC, or I should run another app like Image View GUI? If I plug a sdcard, all of the image data will be stored atomically by the sdcard path? Or I could config a specific file path for storing?

  2. I would access image stream data for development purposes, should I use any APIs to achieve this? And I check that the voxl-camera-server lists all 3 types of cameras' default settings. Should I change the settings if I would change the stereo to 90fps for example? Also, could I access all 3 cameras' data simultaneously? Please advise any related development documents for further instructions. Thanks.

This gives an overview on how the whole process is supposed to work.

If I would access the stream data remotely on PC, I could get data via voxl-streamer, right?

What if I would access the data onboard? For example, if I would develop a native VO application, should I still use voxl-streamer or other APIs?

It isn't a viewer. The viewer is something like QGroundControl or VLC.

Thanks, and will the image view of the voxl-streamer look like the below Image Viewer GUI?

I am also wondering how to show the resource monitoring via a command line like the left side of the screenshot?
