While you are testing:

-seconds 15 -dontwait will try to capture images every 15 seconds without the need to run a print job.

@stuartofmt

I see the current layer, etc. only pictures are not made

If you see current layer > 1 and no images then the images are not being captured.

I need to see ther logfile (make sure you have -verbose set)

The logfile can be downloaded by clicking on the logfile name in the Files tab.

The problem was the usb port. The snapshot works with camera2, but the picture is so dark that you can't see anything

I would like to help but you need to provide details of what you are doing. At a minimum, please post the logfile with -verbose.

If you are using usb then fswebcam is being used.
If you are not getting images from the stream, then likely you have the wrong url in the commandline.

In both cases - the quality of the image is down to the settings on the program that is serving those images. DuetLapse does not manipulate the images, it only copies and shows what is there.

if fswebcam now works (before it did not) then something has changed.

What do you want to use: fswebcam (usb) or streaming ? Lets stick with one as jumping around just muddies the waters.

There are just too many combinations of software settings and cameras - some work together, some do not. This is all BEFORE DuetLapse.

@stuartofmt I'll save the log today. I actually want to use the stream to take the pictures. The dark image was not made with the mjpeg streamer. It looks like he used something else. No idea why

@stuartofmt thanks for your help, i got it working

stuartofmt

@Proschi78
Its important for other people reading these posts that they benefit from what works. That feedback is very helpful.

I can see, from the logfile that the usb camera ( -camera1 usb) was failing AND the stream camera (-camera 2 stream) was failing.

How did you get it working? Did you us the command line that I recommended ? If no - what did you use?

Proschi3D

@stuartofmt use the following for the mjpeg streamer

 python3 DuetLapse3.py -port 8025 -duet 192.168.178.91 -detect layer -weburl1 http://192.168.178.70:8081/?action=snapshot -camera1 web

How do I enable it to automatically generate a video when it ends?

I am pleased to announce the release of version 5.0.0 of DuetLapse3.

Thanks to the good graces of the Duet3D team, I will soon be developing against an SBC. This release is the first step towards a plugin. The UI is completely refactored and there are some new features as well (e.g. being able to set the maximum video length).

See the first post for download links

VERSION 5.0.x
Note .x releases are issued without documentation to correct minor issues e.g. a typo or edge-case logic error.

[1] Completely revised UI
[2] Added display of last captured image to UI
[3] Added ability to specify a config file with -file option This avoids the need for long command lines. Options in command line over-write those in config file
[4] Added -maxvideo. Limits the maximum length of video by varying fps as needed
[5] Added ability to change -fps -minvideo and -maxvideo in the UI
[6] UI gives indication of video creation status
[7] Changed logfile name on startup
[8] Sequential jobs are numbered
[9] Misc bug fixes

Enjoy and as always, feedback and suggestions are welcome.

@Proschi78

I have no idea. You did not use -verbose.
Instead of copy paste the log file its best to upload the logfile.

The logfile can be downloaded by clicking on the link for the logfile. The currently running logfile is the one at the top (shown highlighted in this example). Previous logfiles are below. You can use the -keepfiles option to maintain some history.

ok i do it again with verbose

Version 5.0.3 has been posted to github. It has a few changes from the version I gave you access to. Mostly these are cosmetic but its best to be on this version.

stuartofmt

@osterac

Wanted to bring to your attention Verson 5.0.x.
I got side-tracked with some significant code re-arangement ( same functionality). The ability to set max video length is formally included.

Please let me know what you think.

Is everything running correctly now ?

Proschi3D

@stuartofmt I couldn't try it anymore. But the new version didn't start at all

A logfile with -verbose will reveal all.

@stuartofmt Thanks, I'll take a look!

It doesn't seem to be making any videos for me. I see that the temporary folder is created during the print but no video. I'll attach a log file.

@osterac

Thanks for the logfile. There may be two problems and a "condition".

The likely problem.

You start Duetlapse in standby state but nothing tells it to go to start state. As a result there is no attempt to capture images hence no video can be created.

In the options:

2023-01-24 17:40:55,863 - terminate - -standby  =  True

The logfile shows DuetLapse entering standby state:

2023-01-24 17:40:55,944 - terminate - ++++++ Entering standby state ++++++

But there is nothing that takes it out of standby state. In fact, throughout most of the log, DuetLapse is simply looking for a command.

In the logfile, towards the end of the print (I'm assuming), there is a command to DuetLapse

2023-01-25 16:48:23,135 - gcodeLoop - M117 Command: DuetLapse3.completed

Did you intended the gcode to take DuetLapse out of standby mode with:

M117 DuetLapse3.start   ; start
G4 S10

Either , the command is missing from the gcode or DuetLapse did not "see" the command.

The condition

There are a few instances where there are network issues in the log. Most are sub-second (not uncommon in my experience). It is possible that DuetLapse did not see the start command because it was sent during a network issue. This would be plain bad luck

There is a network disconnect that lasts about 3 minutes. On reconnect, DuetLapse goes back to its previous (standby) state :

2023-01-25 10:39:05,717 - gcodeLoop - Cannot connect to the printer
<snip>
2023-01-25 10:42:52,139 - checkforConnection - -----------------------  Reconnected to printer ----------------------
<snip>
2023-01-25 10:42:57,145 - nextAction - nextAction resuming after reconnect target = standby

The same pattern occurs at 11:50

The second problem

At the end after the command to complete the print job; DuetLapse tries, correctly (for the first time), to get an image and make copies to satisfy the -extratime 2 option.

There is an error because this command failed
wget --auth-no-challenge -nv -O /home/pi/ftp/files/DuetLapse/octopi/192-168-1-8/481_1_overhang_test_mini/Camera1_00000102.jpeg "http://cam.local:8765/picture/1/current/"
i.e. it could not get an image from the camera.

I'm concerned about this for two reasons (1) Is the camera working / are the parameters correct and (2) I do not expect to see the image file being requested as number 102

I recommend you verify that you can capture images using the following from the command line:

wget --auth-no-challenge -nv -O ./test.jpeg "http://cam.local:8765/picture/1/current/"

I will take a look and see why the image number is not what I expect. Its possible that I have a bug that somehow prevented attempts to capture images but the code logic does not change based on camera type.

2023-01-25 16:48:31,220 - nextAction - Command Exception: wget --auth-no-challenge -nv -O /home/pi/ftp/files/DuetLapse/octopi/192-168-1-8/481_1_overhang_test_mini/Camera1_00000102.jpeg "http://cam.local:8765/picture/1/current/"  > /dev/null 2>&1

@stuartofmt
I executed the command that you listed

wget --auth-no-challenge -nv -O ./test.jpeg "http://cam.local:8765/picture/1/current/"

and an image file was created. I downloaded it and it was what I expected. I updated my router firmware and changed some settings, I also added a -port modifier to duetlapse, but I still get the wget --auth-no-challenge error and no images are captured. Here's another log file if it helps.
604_3_Fidgit3_resize.log.txt

PS I also did an apt full-upgrade on my duetlapse pi and my camera server and updated to the latest dev version of motioneye.
