RICOH THETA Z1 Firmware 3.01.1 - Adds Single-Fisheye, simultaneous recording of 2 videos, 50min video length

Absolutely, it’s unfortunate that the update isn’t available for the theta V. If Ricoh could implement this in future updates for other theta versions as well, it would significantly enhance their value.

I’ve delved deeply into this subject and discovered some crucial insights, also thanks to the community. Special mention to @craig who initially directed me towards the new format – that was my starting point.

Because of this, I’d like to contribute back by sharing a repository that compiles all of my research. Inside, you’ll find documentation on the camm format and some Python scripts that streamline the data extraction process.

The parse_camm.py file is particularly noteworthy; it extracts IMU information and converts it into a useful JSON format.

Feel free to explore it here: Extract Camm GitHub Repository

I hope you find it valuable and can build upon it.
