Go! Cam - GPS Time Lapse Photography Demo

[Art]

Hi Guys,

Here's a time lapse photography session done with AVEC GPS connected
to a GPS via serial port, and the PSP Go Cam via USB at the same time.

The video is produced by saving one photo frame for every map screen image capture,
and saving them one after the other. Then I used an AVISynth script in Windows
to crop the images and stack the odd images vertically,
and Virtual Dub to produce a WMV video for upload.

Cheers, Art.

Hi,
The user mode should work on the slim, but then you'd need the PSP290 GPS.

Yes you can convert maps for any country.
Garmin maps are available everywhere.
Look at the readme.

dear art thanks for the fast n prompt reply, in this case i have all psp periperals, yes including the gps,

so can use it with this program? getting live gps feeds ?

[Art]

Yes. They release versions don't support the camera though.
That was done just for a demo.

dear art , thz ! i have downloaded the file now.

juz that i m having hard time finding singapore mp format map. i tried googling n yahooing , but to no avail.

theres some img format maps though,


or maybe the keywords used to search it was wrong? do enlighten me sir

[Art]

img file maps are correct, they are converted to mp with GPSmapedit.
Look at the readme in AVEC.

dear art , thz , i got a singapore map in img format , now converted to mp format. however as i use the mp converter to mpi , as included in the file in avec , n tried to convert it ? it prompt me an error stating,

floating point overflow



wat does that mean sir?

[Art]

Could you pm me a link to where you go the map, and I'll try to sort it out.

here is the link sir, the downloaded file is in img format. then i use gpsmapedit and save the file as mp format, after that i used yr mp to mpi converter to try and convert it , however it failed n instantly prompt me,

stating floating point overflow "

I have downloaded it, and will try to have the problem fixed for V6.
It seems to happen only for maps of whole countries.
You could probably have a more detailed map of a smaller area.

Meanwhile, that map should work with AVEC in mp format, just slower.
It does in V6.
When you load it, just press the square button at the screen that asks you to convert it.

[luftwaffes]

so the map will be converted in the psp itself?? to mpi format sir?

[Art]

not likely if the PC converter doesn't work.
AVEC is compatible with mp files as well, they just draw a lot slower.
Select the file with the cross button, then press square.

dear sir . may be there is a bug or something as i notice , everytime when i press triangle , it brings up a menu , n when i turn the gps state on n off , it will hang the entire program. causing my psp to shutdown by itself

this only happnes when i change the gps mode to on n off

[luftwaffes]
