  Photo camera for still shot

  Posted by Edgar Merino on May 21, 2011 at 8:02 am

  Hello, I was wondering if it’s possible to use ffmpeg to take photographs with a photo camera, or is this only possible using the ptp protocol (e.g. Windows Image Acquisition). Thanks in advance!

  This is not the droid you are looking for.

  I guess it is “possible” because FFmpeg can take stills from a webcom. Not sure if it is the best approach though because FFmpeg is primarily a video converter, not a still image converter….
