raspistill SIGUSR1 mode does timelapse instead? - Raspberry Pi Forums

when command, hoping trigger still capture @ specific time later 'kill -s sigusr1 $pid' :

code: select all

raspistill -s -t 0 -o cap%04d.jpg &

continuing set of timelapse images taken 10 seconds apart, without ever sending signals. intended?

if don't include timeout '-t 0' parameter , do:

code: select all

raspistill -s -o cap%04d.jpg &

process remain running indefinitely if never send signal, quits after 2 captures. possible leave raspistill running, waiting additional capture signals?
