@Eric-Katzfey Thanks for the info. Does that mean it would also be possible for me to access the SeekThermal if I set up the docker like you?
If that's the case would you be so kind as to provide the docker image and whatever else I need or is that not publicly available?

SeekThermal camera integration on VOXL2 Starling
Hi devs,
I was trying to get a SeekThermal camera running through the VOXL drone. It's a model that is NOT listed on the supported devices but I still wanted to try because it would be a good middle ground option between the FLIR Lepton and Boson. I am aware that since it's not supported officially that there's no guarantee for it to work but I still wanted to quickly ask if you had any ideas that could maybe fix the fact that the VOXL2 Starling doesn't recognise the camera even after installing their SDK which is supposed to work on the VOXL architecture. (The 289d:0011 is the camera)
On my laptop it looks like this:
And when I run a script given by SeekThermal I get the following error:
Thanks in advance

RE: Swapping out RC Receiver
@Eric-Katzfey I couldn't find a datasheet apart from this site https://betafpv.com/collections/rx-tx/products/elrs-nano-receiver. I'm pretty sure it uses CRSF over UART since it also uses ELRS.

Swapping out RC Receiver
Hi devs, I'm working with a VOXL2 and wondering if I can easily swap out the "915 MHz ELRS" RC receiver and replace it with a "Nano RX|868MHz". I cannot work on 915 MHz due to some regulations forbidding the usage of that.
Thanks for any feedback. -

@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. -

@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. -
RE: Starling 2 Thermal Camera Suggestions
Alright I got it running through QGroundControl now. Thank you very much for your help. I still have some open questions though.
In VLC I still cannot connect to it through the rtsp link and also in the VOXL portal I cannot follow the stream (in fact i don't even receive any of the other channels anymore). Do you have any ideas why this might occur and/or how to fix it?Also if I open a third terminal window to check voxl-inspect-services it doesn't show the voxl-uvc-server and the voxl-streamer to be running, even though I can see them working in the other windows and the video also arrives at the QGroundControl. Could this still be an issue?
And lastly I'm curious if it's possible to postprocess the video stream in QGroundControl in real-time for e.g. upscaling or object detection or if you would recommend doing this via gstreamer or something different?

RE: Starling 2 Thermal Camera Suggestions
Hi @Eric-Katzfey, I'm a new student helping out in @wifa799 's project which is why it took a few days for me to respond, sorry for that.
I'll try it out today in the afternoon to be able to also send you the errors I get. So far we haven't gotten it to work.
