Hi everyone,:)
Is it possible to save the GPS coordinates on the Live recording of a video? Type DashCam, then re-read.
Thank you

Hi:

You can overlay a text on the camera, but I think you have to use this

Some time ago I wanted to make a DashCam with an old phone.
I haven't found any solution to do it in real time.
or else @Erel solution. But the result is bad.

I recorded in real time in a subtitle file (*.srt) the system time using a timer. Every second.
Then you have a choice.
1 you play the video with the subtitle which will display the time of the recording.
2 you recompile the video with ffmpeg and you can thus embed the time of the recording in the video.

Thanks to all for the valuable advice, my goal was to read the GPS info from the Video file and display it on a map with a WPF application with metadata-extractor. For photos no problem, but for videos I found that GPS recordings are recorded only once. Patience.
