Quickstart
How to access the configuration file
StereoPi settings are stored in the "cosmostreamer.conf" file. This file is located in the "boot" folder of the micro SD card with SLP2. You can connect the micro SD card to your computer using a micro SD cardreader, and this disk will be mounted to your computer.
Please remember to save your changes and do the correct ejection of this drive.
Connection setup
Ethernet
By default, you can use Ethernet connectivity out-of-the-box without any additional configuring. Plug in an Ethernet cable, and you are connected.
WiFi access point
SLP2 has pre-configured access point mode by default. That is after the first boot, you should see an access point named "Cosmostreamer." Use the "1234512345" password to access it. You can change the access point name and password in the configuration file "cosmostreamer.conf" in the /boot partition of the micro SD card (or eMMC). Here is how this section looks like:
# Wi-Fi access point interface # disabled if empty, int - Internal Wi-Fi, ext - External USB Wi-Fi ap_iface=int # Wi-Fi access point SSID ap_ssid="cosmostreamer" # Wi-Fi access point password ap_psk="1234512345"`
Examples:
To disable access point use:
ap_iface=
To enable access point using internal WiFi installed on CM4 use:
ap_iface=int
To enable access point using external WiFi (USB dongle) use:
ap_iface=ext
Note: please check that your USB WiFi dongle supports AP mode and that RaspiOS support the dongle's chipset!
WiFI connection to router
If you want StereoPi to connect to your WiFi router, you should disable the AP mode (see the previous section) first.
To do this, open the "cosmostreamer.conf" file in the /boot partition, and find this section:
# Wi-Fi access point interface # disabled if empty, int - Internal Wi-Fi, ext - External USB Wi-Fi ap_iface=int
Please change "ap_iface=int" to "ap_iface=". Now internal access point is disabled.
Now let's configure the access to your router.
Find this section in the configuration file:
# Wi-Fi network interface # disabled if empty, int - Internal Wi-Fi, ext - External USB Wi-Fi wifi_iface= # Wi-Fi network SSID wifi_ssid=""
# Wi-Fi network password wifi_psk=""
Choose CM4's WiFi by modifying the first row to "wifi_iface=int" and add your access point credentials. For example, to connect StereoPi v2 to the Mars_colony_17 access point with the password total_recall! use these settings:
# Wi-Fi network interface # disabled if empty, int - Internal Wi-Fi, ext - External USB Wi-Fi wifi_iface=int # Wi-Fi network SSID wifi_ssid="Mars_colony_17"
# Wi-Fi network password wifi_psk="total_recall!"
How to access StereoPi
Under Windows10 and MacOS you can type this address in the browser
stereopi.local
If you are using the StereoPi access point, you can use direct access to this address:
192.168.50.1
Making photo/video
Accessing photo/video
To find all photos and videos click on the menu icon at the right bottom corner and choose "Micro SD storage". You'll see the File Manager window. All your images and videos are saved in the DCIM folder.
If you configured SLP2 to store files at the USB dongle, please choose "USB storage" in this menu.
If you want to take a quick look at the latest image captured, you can use the direct link to it.
This link appears at the bottom-left corner right after the image capture. Click on it will open a new browser tab with the taken image.
