Has anyone played with the idea to record composite Video to sd card?· is that possible with the Propeller?· I was thinking composite in, real time to a sd card, but not sure about the codec or format.· Any thoughts?· I want to useit to capture live video on my rc plane.· it needs to be small

    It's not possible with a Propeller and it's not possible with an SD card unless you apply a lot of compression to the video and that requires processing power that the Propeller doesn't have.

    I've seen a variety of web ads for MP4 pinhole cameras for "spying" that could be hacked for this kind of application.

    The ideal chip for that is the ADI Blackfin. I've seen one integrated with a camera, but I forget where.

    Given enough time energy effort and money… anything can be done.
