I want to build a database that takes each image with its joy and IMU (angles) data, so I need to receive the same number of messages for each topic to have a synchronized data.
I run the below command in order to record RGB images, depth images, joystick commands, and IMU data.

$> rosbag record -O subset /camera/depth/image_raw /camera/rgb/image_raw /joy /mobile_base/sensors/imu_data_raw

then

 $> rosbag info subset.bag

which show me the information about my recorded bag file

path:        subset.bag
version:     2.0

start:       Mar 11 2018 16:31:17.29 (1520771477.29)

             sensor_msgs/Joy   [5a9ea5f83505693b71e785041e67a8bb]
topics:      /camera/depth/image_raw             652 msgs    : sensor_msgs/Image
             /camera/rgb/image_raw               540 msgs    : sensor_msgs/Image
             /joy                                991 msgs    : sensor_msgs/Joy  
             /mobile_base/sensors/imu_data_raw   930 msgs    : sensor_msgs/Imu

as you see there are a diffrente number of messegas for each topic. So, how can I receive the same number of it?
and one more thing

any help please?
Thanks in advance

First of all, thank you for your replay. Your first suggestion is works but it doesn't adequate because I don't know how many messages I need to accomplish the desired task. could you help me please how can I use the time synchronizer in my case, cuz I'm new with both ROS and python!

The wiki page I linked already contains an example in python. Where exactly is your problem?

I saw the link but actually, I could not understand how should I use it. I run the python file but nothing is happening! I wonder if this file records my data or not? or what should I change on it? sorry if this show a stupid question but I just started with ROS&Python as well.any help is appreciate

@NEngelhard hello again! could you tell me please what should I put on callback function? should I record my data within callback function section? or I should read a previous recording bag file inside the callback function?
