◆ setCapturedFramesMap()
DBUS interface function.
Set count of already completed frames. This is required when we have identical external jobs with identical paths, but we need to continue where we left off. For example, if we have 3 identical jobs, each capturing 5 images. Let's suppose 9 images were captured before. If the count for this signature is set to 1, then we continue to capture frame #2 even though the number of completed images is already larger than required count (5). It is mostly used in conjunction with Ekos Scheduler.

Definition at line 845 of file capture.cpp.
◆ restartCamera

( |
const QString & | newTargetName | ) |
|
|

Set the name of the target to be captured.
Definition at line 3650 of file capture.cpp.
◆ start
void Ekos::Capture::start |
( |
| ) |
|
|
slot |
DBUS interface function.
Start the execution of the Capture::SequenceJob list #jobs.
Starting the execution of the Capture::SequenceJob list selects the first job from the list that may be executed and starts to prepare the job (
- See also
- prepareJob()).
Several factors determine, which of the jobs will be selected:
- First, the list is searched to find the first job that is marked as idle or aborted.
- If none is found, it is checked whether ignoring job progress is set. If yes, all jobs are are reset (
- See also
- reset()) and the first one from the list is selected. If no, the user is asked whether the jobs should be reset. If the user declines, starting is aborted.
Definition at line 3635 of file capture.cpp.
◆ stop
DBUS interface function.
Stops currently running jobs: CAPTURE_IDLE: capture in idle state waiting for further action (e.g. single sequence is complete, next one starting) CAPTURE_COMPLETE: all capture sequences are complete CAPTURE_ABORT: capture aborted either by user interaction or by a technical error CAPTURE_SUSPEND: capture suspended and waiting to be restarted
- Parameters
-
targetState | status of the job after stop |
Definition at line 3640 of file capture.cpp.
◆ suspend
DBUS interface function.
Aborts all jobs and mark current state as SUSPENDED. It simply calls stop(CAPTURE_SUSPENDED) The only difference between SUSPENDED and ABORTED it that capture module can automatically resume a suspended state on its own without external trigger once the right conditions are met. When whatever reason caused the module to go into suspended state ceases to exist, the capture module automatically resumes. On the other hand, ABORTED state must be started via an external programmatic or user trigger (e.g. click the start button again).
Definition at line 548 of file capture.h.
◆ toggleSequence
void Ekos::Capture::toggleSequence |
( |
| ) |
|
|
slot |

( |
bool | enabled | ) |
|
|
slot |
DBUS interface function.
