Re: publish video on Kangaroo with Grip

I'm currently at the airport waiting to fly from Boston to San Francisco. Wireless is completely broken here so I won't be able to upload any documentation until late tonight. Iphone is not sufficient to do that!

That being said, we do have grip write straight to the roborio networktable and were not overwhelming memory or cpu. And we used the startup folder-- i added a shortcut to grip there and modified the shortcut properties to add the commandline args for the grip file as well as --headless.

One more important note: Using the USB to connect the Kangaroo to the RIO does not work for me-- something happens that terminates the network connection after a minute or two, and GRIP never is able to reconnect. It's not grip though-- looking in windows the network connection itself has disappeared. I did not get enough time to debug why the network connection failed in the first place.

I was able to get everything running consistently this morning by using a usb-to-ethernet dongle and going into the radio. That connection was stable and I was getting good and consistent results.

More details later.
