ubasic - determine left/right camera

Hi,

Is there a way to determine left/right camera in ubasic? 

That is, using the script, I want to check SDM settings to determine which camera the script is running on.

tnx

No, I only add uBasic commands when people really need them.

As you need it, I will add it   :)

What is your camera and firmware version ?

Hi David,

No need to add a command just for this functionality. 
I already have a workaround by requiring the user to specify a "parameter" for identifying left/right camera(s). 

If you are considering enhancements, and if it is feasible,
I would suggest addition of a single command that can inquery and return firmware parameters.  For example:

get_sys_param a b

where "a" is an integer representing the parameter of interest
and "b" is an integer value assigned to the param

Thank you.

Too late, I have  already added it, even if you no longer need it !

I have added a compile-time option to the latest SDM that at a click of the mouse will remove all support for zebra and histograms.

I have not yet decided if I will 'push the button'.

It will only be necessary if I think too much memory is being used.

Would you miss zebra and histograms ?

I wouldn't; however, I'm not the best person to answer this question. 

I use SDM to digitize my books via book scanner (http://www.diybookscanner.org/); thus, I have no use for them

Please don't shoot the zebra! / / / / /    :'(

It's very useful for documentary-style shooting where you don't have much control over lighting.

However, Histogram only used occasionally.
