Hi I would like to do a live video broadcast from a camera to the tiny tv.  Is this possible? what could I use to do this?

Hello,

We do not have any example code that could assist with this, but at a high level, you would want to take the video being recorded from the camera, convert the video to the .tsv format internally (different from what the TSV Converter does: https://learn.tinycircuits.com/Kits/TSV-Converter-Tutorial/ ), and then display the .tsv video onto the screen.

You can start with the TinyTV program here: https://learn.tinycircuits.com/Kits/Tiny-Video-Program/

I will advise you that this isn't a trivial project, so it will take some serious software time to produce. It will also take some time to get a camera wired into the project.

I hope that points you in the right direction.

Thanks,
Réna
