Support USB control in Python API

Open aallaire91 opened this issue 2 years ago • 4 comments

Is there a plan to support USB control in the python api? I'm experiencing intermittent connection issues with the wifi interface and would like a more reliable connection via USB. It seems like much of the functionality provided by the gopro.wifi_command interface could be used, but there needs to be additional logic to use the correct IP address for USB and I'm guessing the code handling wifi-connection would need to be side-stepped somehow. I could probably hack something together myself, but wanted to check if an official plan to support this feature was already in progress.

Wanting to also bring this up, did you have any luck @aallaire91 - or is there any plan for this to be a thing? I also have the same question and would like to control upwards to 5 cameras at once via this method.

Hi, same here. Any plans for this? Trying to get something working myself, but so far no idea where to even begin

Hello. I don't currently plan on adding USB to the Python SDK. Once the SDK is more mature / changing less I may look into it.

FYI this has been merged and will be released as part of the 0.12.0 release (later today)
