#p2pro — Public Fediverse posts

Despite the 2022 post (-> #GoodOf2022), my brain again fell into the trap of thinking we haven't accomplished much at all.

So again, here's a summary, partly for myself, of some of the things I've achieved in 2023:

- Bought an Infiray #P2Pro thermal camera module and reverse-engineered its protocol
- Fixed #midiLighter deep-discharging the LiPo after a fault
- Got started with #CH32V003 development
- Tore down and partly reverse-engineered my #Storm2 powerbank

#GoodOf2023 🧵 1/3

Can anyone recommend a #framework that allows relatively easy cross-platform (#Android, #Windows, #Linux) development?
Needs to be able to:
- Open #USB webcam stream
- Call #ffmpeg
- Send USB vendor control transfers (or calls to #libusb)
- GUI

:BoostOK:

I really don't want to write code two times (and dislike Android app dev), but recently realized that I'd really like for my upcoming #P2Pro viewer to run on Android too.

But if there is no such thing, I'll stick to desktop only for now :/

Yesterday I've learned what USB filter drivers are on Windows and that it's apparently pretty easy to install libusb0 as one. (Thanks @patagona)

Having done that, my initial plan worked on the second try. I can now send the command for switching the color palette, wohoo \o/

I only needed to make sure that I send the USB control transfers after the video capture has already been started, otherwise the call to #libusb will just hang indefinitely for whatever reason.
