Note that the GoPro needs to be plugged in and be in 'standby' mode (Charger symbol) when the computer boots This is why I provided an example service file in this repository. It's rather annoying to start this script every time you start up your PC. Use the provided ip '172.27.187.52' and automatically start an ffmpeg to expose the device to the OS. Just start VLC to preview the output you'll get from the Camera. Use the provided device 'enxenx9245589250e7' and do not ask for user input. It also starts ffmpeg and exposes the device to the OS. V, -verbose echo every command that gets executedįind a device that matches the pattern 'enx' (which is the gopro device for me) and starts the webcam mode without asking for user input. u, -user VLC can't be started as root, please provide a username you want to run it with. This will not expose the device to the OS. v, -preview Just launch a preview in VLC. If this flag is omitted, print the corresponding command to run it yourself. a, -auto-start automatically start ffmpeg to serve the GoPro as a video device to your operating system. i, -ip provide a IPv4 address to the GoPro i.e. f, -fov select the FOV you would like to use. r, -resolution select the resolution you would like the GoPro to output. THIS OPTION IS NOT SUITABLE FOR AUTOMATION! THIS CHANGES EVERY TIME YOU REBOOT/RECONNECT THE CAMERA

d, -device provide a full device name i.e. p, -device-pattern provide a device pattern i.e. Use this when used in a startup-script/fstab n, -non-interactive do not wait for user input.
