8K camera to 4K veo like crop

Has anyone attempted to get dual 8K cameras stitched together and get a smooth Veo like cropped image in 4K? I would love to see some samples. I currently record with Veo, XbotGo Falcon, and testing Folocam.

My end game setup:
4K 60FPS final image cleaned up any horizon distortion
Automatic detection of half start/stop
Automatic detection of Goals (Update overlay scoreboard based who scored)

Do you have 8K footage? I can try to stitch it.

No automatic halves / goal detection for now. It’s an open topic for the community to work on :slight_smile:

However I thought of making a small webapp where you click on a button when a goal is scored and the overlay directly updates. Shouldn’t be too hard to create.

Not yet. I’m looking at a few different camera options to see what makes sense. The 8K footage on the GoPro Mission 1 Pro doesn’t appear to be that good right now. The 4K image is sharper.

I might have to build a bluetooth timecode device that I can click buttons to record events. That could be used to target goals and key plays. Something cheaper and more simple than this https://www.markermaker.io

I haven’t looked but does your software support timecode to stitch everything including external mics? Might have to do that in post. I want to build an automated system that pulls the video off the devices when I get home. Process the video and then upload to YouTube automatically.

Is there somewhere you’d like these discussions to happen? Here and/or github? Issues or discussions?

Currently the softwate does not have these features. However they are really straightforward to implement.

External mic, and auto highlight generation from timecode is something I can implement in a few releases.

You can definitely build an automated system, thanks to the CLI version of the software. A simple script will do the job.

I think it’s better to discuss it here because it’s more accessible than GitHub. And we shall keep GitHub for discussions around the code.

I bought a Gopro mission 1 pro and tested the image quality in 8K 60fps. It’s amazing so far and it should produce an incredible final image. I need to purchase a second one now and 3d print a mount. Once I get some sample recordings I can start running it through some tests.

Is it best to shoot in linear mode or just regular mode and let the post software dewarp after stitching?

Sounds good, if you have any issues please let us know, 8K is top priority.

The software will dewarp, but Linear might too narrow to have sufficient overlap + 180° coverage.

Do not use Superview or Hyperview, it is not supported yet.

I made a dual GoPro Mission 1 mount but with the 15 degree tilt removed. The season is over and doesn’t start for another 2 months. I need to try and find a pickup game locally to record and test with 8K.

I’m not sure we have lens profiles for this new camera. May have to do a calibration video (film a checkerboard). Otherwise this is very exciting!!
