Following a Twitter poll where TinyPilot drastically outperformed other options (except for the option of “these names all suck,” which it still beat but by a smaller margin)
Updated all the project repo names, moved to a new domain, etc.
Maxim Devaev, uStreamer’s developer, did a remote session with me and discovered that my HDMI capture device was doing MJPEG encoding already, so the extra encoding I was doing on the Pi was unnecessary.
Spent an extraordinarily long time trying to create a master .img file for the microSD cards
I tried imaging a configured microSD card with Win32DiskImager, but it kept failing with I/O errors midway through
Is it because I’m using my test microSDs, which are lower quality?
Tried doing it on SanDisk class-10 microSDs and it wrote out the image successfully
But then when I wrote the image to a new microSD card, it wouldn’t boot
Actually, now that I type that out, maybe I need to test writing it to another non-crappy microSD, even though writes to crappy microSDs work for other images I’ve tested.
Ultimately, I gave up and just wrote a script to configure the disk with Ansible while it’s booted
Not an ideal solution because it still requires me to write Raspbian on one device, transfer it to the Pi, boot it, then run the Ansible script from my dev machine.
