Has there been any progress on implementing a “-3D SBS” type stereo video recording feature in Libcamera? (Like Raspivid)
I've recently come across information in the Libcamera documentation regarding cameras:
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Basic support for multiple cameras is available within rpicam-apps. Multiple cameras may be attached to a Raspberry Pi in the following ways:
Two cameras connected directly to a Raspberry Pi Compute Module board, see the Compute Module documentation for further details.
Two or more cameras attached to a non-compute Raspberry Pi board using a Video Mux board, like this 3rd party product $50
https://www.arducam.com/product/multi-c ... pberry-pi/
In the latter case, only one camera may be used at a time, since both cameras are attached to a single Unicam port. For the former, both cameras can run simultaneously.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
The statement "For the former, both cameras can run simultaneously" seems to suggest synchronous recording can take place with, for instance, a CM4 with 2 camera ports on the carrier board,
But I do not see any documentation relating to recording synched videos side-by-side (stereo). Can someone please clarify all this a bit more and explain what is, and isn't, possible using Libcamera and two cameras without using a 3rd party module.
'Thanks.
