RAW Support

jburgess opened this issue · comments

Any chance to get RAW support?

Thanks for a great project!

What sort of raw support do you need? Full bayer data (bayer=True in picamera's capture method), or unencoded captures (YUV, RGB, BGR, etc.), or even both? Either way I'm happy to add it when I get a mo, just wondering what the specifics are.

I should warn that the level of data involved (in either case) will strain medium to large setups.

I second the interest in RAW output support. In my case, unencoded RGB would be the most desirable (but more options are always welcome). Since this is supported in picamera, it would hopefully not be too much work to pass the format parameter through to compoundpi.

Just wanted to follow up. I'd love to use this project, but I need Bayer data for my usecase. Ideally it would conform to the way picamera / raspistill handle Bayer + jpeg so that pyDng would work out of the box. Would you be interested in a bounty? Thanks!
