[Sugar-devel] HELP REQUEST: Record activity developers / gstream experts

[Joseph Gordon]

That is what im thinking, but i realy like the way record looks and feels. I plan to make a "Microscope" activity, but want to use as much of the record nuts and bolts as possible because of how seamless its sharing is. The way you see the photos other poeple have taken while working together is ideal.

I am working on a secondary school deployment of 1.5s and I would like to support usb microscopes within the sugar environment. I am working at Ntugi school in kenya www.ntugischool.com feel free to look us up.

I can make most of the gui changes but im stuck when it comes to glive.py. I do not know where the changes need to be made to support this device. I can take a pic with pipeline = gst.parse_launch('v4l2src device=/dev/video1 ! jpegenc ! filesink location=/tmp/microscope.jpg')
