PiCam

setup

warning: this info is in progress -- may not (yet) represent a useful thing

• ok this link in the end was totally misleading -- in fact you (maybe?) just need to add some stuff to /boot/config.txt

(the audio thing is unrelated to the camera, but may be useful -- I think it forces audio to the mini jack?! ie not to HDMI)

/boot/config.txt

# Enable audio (loads snd_bcm2835)
dtparam=audio=on
start_x=1
gpu_mem=128

test the camera
