- Added an audio output selector switch (RPi 3.5mm jack or USB dongle) on Menu 3. This is a duplicate of the switch in the LongMynd config Menu and redirects all audio output except the RTL-FM receiver.
- Added an audio output from the C920 WebCam Microphone when the C920 is selected for transmit using Comp Vid output mode. This means that a Portsdown with a C920 attached can be used as a camera and microphone for analog FM ATV transmitters. Remember that you will need to enable the video output (using the button on Menu 3) if you have a 7 inch screen.
- Rearranged Menu 2 with 5 "Monitor" buttons. The first enables display of the video input to an EasyCap, but without the audio being played. The image size is 540x432 (3/4 of the captured resolution) to allow display of the complete image whilst keeping the scaling reasonably easy for the RPi processor.
- The second button displays the EasyCap video and relays the audio to the selected output socket. In this case the image size is 360x288 (1/2 of the captured resolution) as the processor could not cope with any more complex scaling whilst also handling the audio.
- The third button displays the image from the PiCam. Useful for testing and setting up before transmission.
- The fourth button displays the image from the C920, but without audio. If you want audio as well, select Comp Vid as the transmit output and select the C920 from the Comp Vid transmit menu.
- The final button in the row uses omxPlayer to display (and play audio from) any stream sent to the Portsdown on port 10000. This can be used to test IPTS in, and can also be used as a remote display for a second Portsdown with LongMynd receiver in UDP mode. Just remember to change the port number in the LongMynd config. In future, I may replace this player with VLC, but further testing is required first.
- I have also fixed the bug reported by EC3DBA, so that the PTT pin 40 is now activated when transmit using LimeDVB is selected from console mode.
Lastly - please try to use your Portsdown (or any other ATV gear - I'm not fussy) in the contest next weekend and put in an entry. It's getting more people on the air that encourages me to improve the system!
