blackvue-download

Download video files from BlackVue camera

Forked from PhilRW/blackvue-download

How to use

Firstly, install the pip requirements for the script:

pip install -r requirements.txt

Then, run the python script and pass it two arguments: the destination directory and the IP/hostname of the camera. It will run continuously and will wait 5 minutes between trying to reach the host.

python ./blackvue-download.py /home/me/BlackVue 192.168.0.123

The script will place the files in subfolders based on year, month, and day (YYYY/MM/DD).

The following flags are available:

  • --wait_time sets the time between rescanning the dashcam file library, defaults to 5mins
  • --log_level sets the logging level of the output, defaults to INFO
  • --skip_night will skip the night time files, between 8pm and 6am
    • --early_hr will set the early hour value, defaults to 6 (24hr time)
    • --late_hr will set the late hour value, defaults to 20 (24hr time)

Docker

There is a Docker image available. Simply map a volume where you want it stored and pass the hostname/IP of the camera:

docker run -v /home/me/BlackVue:/data philrw/blackvue-download 192.168.0.123

If you don't map the data volume, it will be anonymous.
