lucabutera Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 For NX1 NX-KS Hack users: Someone more experienced than me in programming is requested to test the Wifi bitrate hack on NX1 camera. I received this directions from @KinoSeed " here is the remote storage plugin: https://github.com/mewlips/nx-netfs but this is a bit tricky to install if you simply want to test the speed - turn on the FTP with nk-ks, it's same at telnet - (EV+MOBILE), and using FTP client (for transfering files) connect to the camera on the IP shown on the camera-screen." Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marco Tecno Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 This is very interesting, but I didn't understand exactly what it should/could do: transfer video on wifi directly? If so...in which format? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Second, the video is great and I am sure a lot of users here could benefit from it. Third, unfortunately it just seems to be impossible for the nx500. The nx500 does not support tethered connection (only the nx1 does), and the nx500 has no setting for USB connection type (which you select "remote" on the nx1) and only functions in mass storage mode. Even if it could be hacked to allow remote usb connection, I am not sure the software would recognize the camera since samsung remote studio may be coded to only work with the NX1. Again, thank you very much for your effort to help me. It is appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I have compiled several modules and toyed with them and they work, even NFS mount works (but slowly, very slowly). I didn't want to modify root more than I had to so I put modules in /opt.

Otto K Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 @mnewxcv have you seen this https://mewlips.github.io/nx-remote-controller-mod/ ? It's also included in NX-KS since version 2.56 and it works on NX500 (but at screen resolution, so quality not high). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much prefer it to the samsung app. However, seems the live video stream is like 1-2fps. If only something like that was made for usb tethered connection so the resolution and bitrate could be higher. The nx500/nx1 have a usb 3.0 port don't they? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SMGJohn Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 A wise man once said, "The audience does not care about image quality, they care about composition and story" This is even more true for the fact that VHS even made such a success as it did despite Beta being the superior format with superior picture quality, Laserdisc even more so and VideoCD outselling DVD's until 2004 Marco Tecno 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kisaha Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 I wish we could up our game a bit, this codec obviously has its limitations, high ISO performance is not great at all, the noise reduction is killing our video, and I just wish I could magnify for focus while recording. All in all, everything else is super amazing!

Kisaha Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 haha! I am sure they do! Nuh..they are not that sensitive, cameras do not broke that easily, you see in various forums that only a few complain about broken NXes, and usually the top dial somehow do not work properly. They seem very well implemented, plus there are quite a lot new ones from Korea. From various sources around the net (and your Fabebook as well) it seems like there are a lot more NX users than I though they were, just not enough obviously. As it seems, my NX1/NX500/NX3000+all the lenses I need (except the 50-150 I do not have) will keep me good company for a few more years. The things I mentioned above are the only concerns, but a breakthrough in any of these could keep the cameras relative for at least a couple more years (until 2020), do not even want to know what will happen if we can extract raw, somehow, out of these, people are buying 5DmarkII for their Magic Lantern capabilities! We will see, it is an interesting journey nevertheless, and thanks for all your effort, much obliged!

Marco Tecno Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 I'd even get a nx2 with that on board, provided that it has internal 10bit at 4:2:2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
