RE: [misterhouse-users] Overlaying text on a jpeg with linux

Though I haven't used any of the code, using ImageMagick
(http://www.imagemagick.org/index.html) looks like adding text overlays
is trivial.  -Lincoln

Subject: [misterhouse-users] Overlaying text on a jpeg with linux


I'm using v4lctl to capture a jpeg from my front door camera for use on
the security page, and I'd really like to overlay the date and time.
According to the v4lctl/xawtv man page the msg option should do that,
but I've been unsuccessful.

Has anyone ever gotten this to work or perhaps know another way to
overlay some text into a jpeg file?  Thanks.
