πŸ’– CAMORAMA πŸ’–

okay bestie, so the manual name is Camorama and honestly? she's that girl. welcome to the group chat, let's get you caught up ✨


✨ NAME ✨

Camorama β€” the GNOME2 Video4Linux viewer, no cap πŸŽ€


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

camorama [options]

that's it. that's the whole vibe. options go in, camera magic comes out πŸ’…


πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

so like, this manual page is giving a brief rundown of the camorama command. and here's the tea: this page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution, because the original program literally does not have a manual page of its own. so we made one. you're welcome 🫢

Camorama is an open-source Video4Linux application, and she has view, record, and even effect capabilities. like, she's not just a viewer, she's a whole main character πŸ‘‘


πŸ‘‘ OPTIONS πŸ‘‘

here's the full list, every single one, don't skip:

  • -h β€” usage. she'll tell you how to use her πŸ’–
  • -V β€” version info. what version are we on, bestie?
  • -D β€” debugging info. for when you need to see the receipts πŸ”
  • -d <video_dev> β€” use video_dev instead of /dev/video0. like, pick your own camera device instead of the default one πŸŽ₯
  • -M β€” use maximum capture size (depends on camera). go big or go home πŸ”₯
  • -m β€” use minimum capture size (depends on camera). tiny, cute, lowkey πŸ“
  • -H β€” use middle capture size (depends on camera). the Goldilocks option, fr fr 🌈
  • -x <width> β€” capture width. you set the number πŸ“
  • -y <height> β€” capture height. you set the number too πŸ“
reminder bestie: the -M, -m, and -H sizes all depend on your camera. you can't just manifest a resolution that the hardware doesn't have, iykyk πŸ’€
