Enhancement request: Add text fields to SSTV transmit image

Open gregoryfenton opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

Could we have some text fields in the SSTV transmit functionality that may be populated with callsign, signal report etc and have them overlaid onto the image to be transmitted? I know we could create a bitmap with that information easily enough while attached to a computer but sometimes we are in the field (not at the moment, we are all locked down looking at github :p)

Could be done without too much trouble if images are kept in bmp format.

Compressed formats would require the image to be decompressed (to a raw file, not to RAM because there wouldn't be enough), modified, and recompressed -> lots of work for something that could be done beforehand on a computer (except for the signal report of course).
