snapshot resolution

Open umutbalkan opened this issue 4 years ago • 6 comments

Is there anyway reduce the snapshot resolution OR changing the image mode (e.g. black&white) by only using imagesnap?

I'm wondering the same

@pbojinov i run a simple python script periodically to resize and change them to the grayscale.

I was actually curious about making the image resolution larger when taking the photo but didn’t see any run time flags for setting it.

The python script/cron is a great idea to run some post processing.

Great questions. I've been exploring how to get various resolutions supported by the video devices -- especially since some webcams support 4k now -- but I have not been very successful yet. At least on my dev machine with Mojave.

Also interested in getting 4k snapshots from my Logitech Brio.

Agree - I'd like to see how to get 4k supported. Two problems. 1) I got rid of my Brio. 2) I think I need something newer than Mojave to support it, but I can't test that now.
