View Video Stream (e.g. Security Camera) on a Raspberry Pi with Read Only System

  • In this video I go over the process of setting up an auto-starting video stream from an IP camera. The stream will automatically restart if the network connection is disrupted. The Raspberry Pi should also restart if the system crashes. The system is read only so you can turn it off by cutting power without corrupting the data on the SD card.

    It seems that omxplayer is not available anymore because everyone has been moving to vlc. I get "Package omxplayer is not available, but is referred to by another package.
    This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
    is only available from another source" when trying to install

    Firstly I'd like to say that I love your full explanation in your tutorial. I'd love to have a try at this project in the future. Question, are you using any lowlight cameras in the above setup or are you using an external light source to illuminate?

      I'm just now seeing this comment. Sorry for the delay. I am using Amcrest PoE cameras. They have IR leds on them so they have "night vision".

    Good tutorial- thanks for this, would it work on pi3b and by the way what exactly OS version you are using and pi hardware? i get omxplayer installation issues, and with older version of OS "Error: Unable to open font"-- cheers

    Is it possible to revert the read-only process? Great video!!

    • @Rickmakes
      @Rickmakes  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I'm not sure on that. I would try using OverlayFS instead. You run "sudo raspi-config". Then go to Advanced Options > Overlay FS. Enable that and your system is read only. You can turn that back off to get back to read/write. If my instructions are working or clear, try googling something like "how to enable OverlayFS on Raspberry Pi".

    could you set this up with multiple cameras on one display? id assume you would just add the other steams and set the --win command with diff coordinates?

    Hi thanks for the tutorial I was able to make it work with my rpi4. I have a question though, can a rpi zero w handle this? one stream?

    • @Rickmakes
      @Rickmakes  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I haven't tried it but I'm guessing it would work. You could potentially adjust the video output on the camera (for instance, lower the resolution and/or bitrate) if you run into problems.

    Hi RickMakes, great video. I would like to use this in my recording studio to see the band playing in the other room and they should see me in the control room (2 cameras, 2 raspberry pi's, 2 monitors). Is the frame rate of this streaming solution good enough? Can I do this also with Raspberry PI 3 or 3b+? How high can I go in terms of resolution?

  • @hoplahey

    Is it easy to add additional data onto the video stream? That is overlaying information from your raspberry onto the video stream.

    • @Rickmakes
      @Rickmakes  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      There isn't an easy way using the software I am using in this video. It is taking the video stream and sending it to the screen. Modifying it would take quite a bit more power and delay it quite a bit. There might be an efficient way to do it but I'm guessing it will be more complicated.

    Nice project !
    Is there any way to make the file system writable again (temporarily, say to install updates) ? I have seen the adafruit guide mentions a gpio jumper, but that doesn't seem very useful when you access it remotely.

    • @Rickmakes
      @Rickmakes  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I just did a video on another technique using the Overlay File System: th-cam.com/video/jjwt9GZGELo/w-d-xo.html You can turn the read only on and off with it. You would use this in place of the Adafruit script. With the Overlay FS, the system always appears to be read/write so you need to make sure you have it turned off when you do updates. It also doesn't have the watchdog capability as the Adafruit script.
