What?

This is Raspberry Pi image that outputs a 1080p 60fps signal, playing back Big Buck Bunny on a continous loop.

Why?

I do a lot of video processing/encoding. Instead of requiring actual cameras and aiming it at a TV, I use a Rasperry Pi to produce a feed with constant/clear motion with beautiful colors.

How?

Download a pre-compiled image that can be deployed to your Raspberry Pi (only Raspberry Pi 2) from the releases.

Or, you can compile it yourself. This will need to be done if you need to support any version other than Raspberry Pi 2.

Here are the steps.

1. Follow these steps to ensure your system is able to build using the yocto environment.
2. git clone https://github.com/pauldotknopf/raspberry-pi-camera-source.git
3. git submodule update --init --recursive
4. Update the local.conf and set MACHINE to be either raspberrypi or raspberrypi2.
5. source poky/oe-init-build-env
6. bitbake camera-image-minimal
7. dd if=tmp/deploy/images/raspberrypi2/camera-image-minimal-*-sdimg | pv | sudo dd of=/dev/sdX
