Hi Esri,
I'm trying to create a georeferenced video with the shape files displayed in the video. I just have a few questions:
1. In ArcMap, there is a function "Start displaying features from map on video". I cannot seem to locate it in ArcGIS Pro.
2. In ArcMap, I am able to record the video metadata containing the frame corners and etc after I use the Video Multiplexer. I cannot seem to locate it in ArcGIS Pro. It is helpful for analyzing the calculated results.
3. What are the camera and gimbal systems used in the FMV Tutorial Desktop (1.3.1) regarding this file "CheyenneVAhospital.mpeg4". Also, does the system record MISB data directly or just the minimum which is used later to calculate the corners.
4. I'm currently using the Garmin Virb Ultra 30 to record the footage and generate the CSV to create the multiplexed video but there seems to be some issues due to Garmin GPS accuracy (as well as heading). Are there recommended systems available?
5. Also, sometimes the metadata of the multiplexed video has empty values for corners.. which results in the camera view port stretching to infinity.. What can I do to mitigate that?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you!
Francis

Hi Cody,
Thanks so much for you detailed and prompt response!
1. Sounds great! For the time being I will still use ArcMap for Full Motion Video. Would 2.3 be out at the end of 2018?
2. Yes sorry for the confusion. That is what I was referring to. Furthermore, in ArcMap, I was able to record the Multiplexed video metadata into a CSV file (see attached image). Does ArcGIS Pro does similar functions?
3/4/5. Understood. And currently we are trying to demonstrate the feasibility of FMV and show a proof of concept for our application, it is a really great add-in to integrate digital data into captured footage.
The final purpose is a helicopter inspection equipped with better hardware and gimbal systems. And yes, we are looking for camera system and possibly gimbal recommendations if you could please.
Sounds good! I will definitely clean up the metadata and recreate a multiplexed video afterwards!
Thank you very much once again!

sorry I didn't answer #2 properly. No, Pro 2.2 does not have the equivalent functionality to extract and save the metadata as *.csv. That will be available via a GP tool in Pro 2.3, due late this year.
I don't have a list of sources for compatible professional/military camera systems but offhand I can give you a few names:

Hi Cody,
Sounds great! We will look forward to the release of V2.3 later this year.
Also thank you very much for the list of recommendations. We will get in touch with them in the immediate future.
Sincerely,
Francis
