Exposure turning off when starting video

Open explodingpaws opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

Hi there, Whenever I start recording, the exposure turns off and resets to regular. Any help?

I just checked exposure compensation and it worked OK for me. I made three recordings with exposure compensation set to -10,0,+10 and the recordings reflected what I had set.

Check scheduler log for activity around when you change exposure and start a recording.

E.g. {2021/08/31 12:06:37} Change: exposure_compensation = 10 {2021/08/31 12:06:45} Capturing started {2021/08/31 12:06:52} Capturing stopped {2021/08/31 12:06:52} Add /var/www/media/vi_0001_20210831_120645.mp4 to Box Queue at pos 1 {2021/08/31 12:06:52} DEBUG 3 {2021/08/31 12:06:53} Start boxing /var/www/media/vi_0001_20210831_120645.h264 to /var/www/media/vi_0001_20210831_120645.mp4 Queue pos 1 {2021/08/31 12:06:54} Finished boxing /var/www/media/vi_0001_20210831_120645.mp4 from Box Queue at pos 1 {2021/08/31 12:06:54} Removed item from Box Queue
