ESP32 - Reusing example source - Esp32-Camera

[mnfisher]

Thanks - have had a happy afternoon watching this one. Not sure where the other has been - but they are very hard to spot unless they move...

Almost makes up for this morning - water board turned up looking for a leak - reckon 60L per min have been coming out somewhere - so now have a long blue pipe from the 'main' to an outside tap...

I was keen to have a go with this so I bought the chip pack but it fails to compile. I have no idea what the error is being an esp noob
Any pointers Martin?

Hi Martin!

First thank´s for your sharing, very interesting I am at the moment waiting in the airport and of course looking in FC forum, then I discover your test with the camera, read a little bit, before take off, and emediately order a couble these module. Honest, I have absolute no experience with this, so maybe stupid question. In the first examble I suppose the camera is take a photo every second, I guess you not are using SD card, how do you get the picture to your PC? In the next examble you use a SD card, so this I understand. Is it possible to send the picture via wifi to the PC or via BT, could be nice to sit in the living room an see what happen in the garden Not study all your exable yet, I will do.

Thank´s in advance.

Hi

I'd forgotten about this post as I was travelling around that time.

Last night I downloaded the second post of "examples" from above, which being named the same as the first post, became examples(1), which I didn't notice at the time. As Leigh mentions, this won't compile with parenthesis so I saved as something else. Unfortunately whilst compiling to Hex it failed well into the process.

However as I'd forgotten about the post I'd forgotten the first post in which Martin informs he's getting espressif code to run within FC and you have to download the camera source from github.

Well worth reading from first post.

Regards

Thanks and very true. Long winded to get it to work.
I loaded a program via arduino ide to test it. Point of note - dont try to program via arduino with sd card inserted, doesnt seem to like it
