Hi everyone,<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
i just purchased a Casio QV-11 camera the other day and got<br>
|
||
various utilities to work that query the camera and dump the pictures<br>
|
||
out of it (QVplay). But this is all command-line stuff. Now i'd like<br>
|
||
to make a SANE backend for that type of camera (based on the QVplay<br>
|
||
code, as soon as i get permission from the author to reuse the code)<br>
|
||
to be able to use (x)scanimage with it. The camera used a proprietary<br>
|
||
'CAM' format to store the pictures, but this is easily transformed into<br>
|
||
JPEG (as a matter of fact, i just finished yesterday a CAM plugin for <br>
|
||
the GIMP based on the existing cam2jpeg utility, so now you can<br>
|
||
load CAM pictures directly into the GIMP). Now i think i read in the <br>
|
||
SANE doc that JPEG was not supported yet... i don't see the point of<br>
|
||
translating a JPEG file into a bitmap that SANE can handle, since most<br>
|
||
often users might convert the result to JPEG in the end anyway..<br>
|
||
So here are basically the questions:<br>
|
||
- how hard is it to write a backend? what's a good place to<br>
|
||
start (which one is the simplest ?) ?<br>
|
||
- when will there be JPEG support in the SANE interface? i guess<br>
|
||
other camera (such as the Kodak ones?) also use a format<br>
|
||
that's close to JPEG...<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
Thanks for your (numerous!) replies...<br>
