Hey, thank you for the awesome work.

Wondering if is possible to use this package to connect to multiple gopros simultaneously?

If this isn't possible, what would be the best way of implementing this feature?

Hello! In theory it is possible (Thanks again @KonradIT), you will have to change the config files though, haven't checked yet but if you are successful to connect these gopros to a wifi access point then you just need to check out for their IP addresses and change the config files accordingly.

Will try to see how to tackle this one by the end of next week and provide a IP field for these config files.

Greetings!

This does not work for multiple camera control, refer to using bluetooth: https://github.com/konradit/gopro-ble-py

Hi , I found the link you show us above using the BLE protocol to manipulate multiple goPros simultaneously,but in this git repo,if user wants to integrate goPros in ros,we need get the video that the goPro had by HTTP,but whether its achievable to connect two goPros' wifi using one computer so that I could get two goPros' video respectively?
Waiting for your reply,Thanks!

Hello! Well, if you are able to connect two gopros into a same network, you certainly can spawn two ROS nodes for each of them.

Right now, I just have a gopro hero 5 in my possession, so I'm kinda limited on what I can test. So if you are able to help, I will highly appreciate it.

At the moment, I am a bit busy at work but for sure will have time by the mid/end of this week to have a look into the code.
