r_e_c_u_r

an open diy py/pi based video sampler

r_e_c_u_r is an embedded python application on raspberry pi3 that uses input from the keypad to control omxplayer's video out while displaying a simple text user interface on the rpi lcd screen  

features

• seamlessly loop video through rpi's HDMI out
• intuitively browse video files on a usb and map them into r_e_c_u_r
• load and trigger video samples from numbered slots in the sampler bank
• monitor the current samples playback status and the sampler banks details on the lcd display
• dynamically set and clear the start/end points of each sample as it plays
• configure the settings menu to suit your use

(more coming soon)

feature requests

i started a board of features i would like to explore

main objectives:

• Affordable : reducing the entry cost to performing with video
• Extendable : laying the foundations (of a user interface and code style) that can be easily iterated on by the community
• Simple : easy to operate (abstracted completely from ‘driving’ a raspi ) , easy to build (no technical computer install-y or circuit-y knowledge required to diy) , easy to develop (human readable code, inviting amatuer/first time coders to contribute)

documentation:

• operating - how to use r_e_c_u_r
• building - how to build r_e_c_u_r
• developing - how to contribute to r_e_c_u_r
