### Can this be used in any other distro’s like Rasbian? Run this in a Docker?
|
||||
- Not at this time, maybe in the future
|
||||
|
||||
### Can you switch from USB to CSI or from CSI to USB?
|
||||
- Officially, no. Unofficially yes. Please visit this [site](https://pastebin.com/u/srepac) and grab the platform-switcher.sh script
|
||||
|
||||
Directions:
|
||||
1) Place script in the root dir
|
||||
2) Make a `custom-override.yaml` file - NEEDS to adhere to proper spacing, please see kvmd -m for proper formatting
|
||||
```
|
||||
kvmd:
|
||||
streamer:
|
||||
forever: true
|
||||
cmd_append: [--slowdown] # for usb-hdmi only so that target PC display works w/o rebooting
|
||||
### this section is for use with webrtc/h.264 -- up to resolution: line
|
||||
h264_bitrate:
|
||||
default: 5000
|
||||
cmd_append:
|
||||
- "--h264-sink=kvmd::ustreamer::h264" # requires gpu_mem=256 in /boot/config.txt for usb dongle

|
||||
# default: 1280x720 # default resolution I use in webui - usb-hdmi only
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
3) Make a `config.txt.usb` file
|
||||
```# See /boot/overlays/README for all available options
|
||||
initramfs initramfs-linux.img followkernel
|
||||
|
||||

||||
|
||||
# Clock
|
||||
#dtoverlay=i2c-rtc,pcf8563
|
||||
```
|
||||
|

4) Make a `config.txt.csi` file
|
||||
```# See /boot/overlays/README for all available options
|
||||
initramfs initramfs-linux.img followkernel
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
# Clock
|
||||
dtoverlay=i2c-rtc,pcf8563
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
5) Place all files in the same dir as the platform-switcher script
|
||||
6) Run `chmod +x platform-switcher.sh`
|
||||
7) Run `./platform-switcher.sh`
|
||||
8) Follow the directions that are printed out, Eg: ./platform-switcher.sh -f
|
||||
9) Now you can switch back and forth between usb and csi, please note there is an almost 2 min delay before the portal becomes active.
