I've read a lot and I still can't configure my webcam. I've read about spca 5xx but when I go to and click on the debian package, it takes me to a "No such package" site inside debian's package.debian.orgAny idea how to resolve this? maybe there's another way to have this webcam working. I know there's a way to make a .deb package from a .rpg, would that work in this situation?
View 1 RepliesI'm install a genius web cam eye 312 in fedora 11. The image is upside down in all the programs. In amsn there is no colors, and image upside down. In skype, chesse full colors very nice, but image upside down.
amsn give me this information:
v4l2 : usb camera (93a:2622)pac 7311.
The command Lsusb give me
Bus 005 Device 002: ID 093a:2622 Pixart Imaging, Inc.
So I think there is a problem with the driver it self.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to add a webcam and it get's registered nicely. The problem is that after a reboot it registers as card 0, my internal card gets registered as card 1, and I lose all sound.
arecord -l without webcam:
Code:
card 0: default [PnP Audio Device ], device 0: USB Audio [USB Audio]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
[code]....
C-Media is the built-in soundcard and Philips is the webcam.why the built-in is registered as an usb-device but it is and external sources confirm that this is correct. According to the alsa project wiki the correct way to give two devices using the same module (such as two usb-devices) a specific index is to add something along the following in the main alsa configuration file.
Code:
options snd-usb-audio index=1,2 vid=0x0ccd,0x0d8c pid=0x0028,0x000c
As I use Debian Squeeze 64-bit with the odd package from sid and multimedia repository enabled I found that the correct file to add this in is /etc/modprobe.conf. I therefore added this:
Code:
options snd-usb-audio index=0,1 vid=0d8c,0471 pid=0201,0333
This corresponds to my hardwares' VID and PID. When I reboot I and do arecord -l I get:
Code:
arecord: device_list:223: no soundcards found...
As an alternative I tried to add this snippet to /etc/modprobe.d/sound instead but at boot I get the message that "vid 0d8c" is an invalid parameter. Well, it's not. It adds upp with the output from lsusb and the external source linked to above. Do I need to add that arecord -l tells me I have no soundcard?
I am running Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic Koala) on a five year old desktop computer with no problems what-so-ever until that is when i try to use aMSN. The aMSN program is great and problems only arise when i try to configure the audio and webcam. When i open up Preferences -> Edit audio and video settings and try to configure the audio and webcam everything just freezes solid and the only way i can un-freeze the computer is to disconnect the plug from the power connection.
On other occasions when i have again attempted to configure the audio and webcam the whole aMSN program just vanishes off the screen altogether? I have a Logitech QuickCam 8.1.1

Driver Genius is a piece of software that you can use to extract/pull/save/leach the drivers of a certain piece of hardware under MS Windows in order to save it for feature use with an other similar machine
OR the concept is different in linux? cause the drivers are integrated inside the kernel?

This is how i made my Genius G-Pen F610 Tablet on Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx. Everything works but the buttons the sides of the tablet, the buttons of the pen(stylus) work as well. First I was looking at these websites, as a reference: [URL] So, let's begin our journey:
1. Add this ppa: ppa:doctormo/xorg-wizardpen (I've went to System-Administration-Software Sources-Other Software-Add and copy-pasted this at the APT line: ppa:doctormo/xorg-wizardpen )
2. Install xserver-xorg-input-wizardpen (I went to System-Administration-Synaptic Package Manager and typed wizardpen (on the QuickSearch bar) It showed me that there is a packet called xserver-xorg-input-wizardpen, I have right-clicked and check Mark for Installation, and then went to Apply button.)
3. Run cat /proc/bus/input/devices in the terminal (I openned Applications-Accessories-Terminal and there I pasted (by that I mean pressing Middle-mouse button this way you can easely paste) this code: cat /proc/bus/input/devices)Now it will show all the devices on your computer, so you need to find the event for your tablet. My F610 tablet is recognised by Ubuntu like this:

View 8 Replies View RelatedMy computer has been running well for a couple of years with Ubuntu and the Gnome desktop. I use a very cheap webcam from PCWorld PC Line 1.3 Mega Pixels with Cheese and Skype which worked on Ubuntu. The new Ubuntu Unity desktop seems most unintuitive and reading that Ubuntu may not include Gnome for the next release is my reason to make the change to Debian. I am aware Ubuntu is a Debian derivative.
I have installed Debian Squeeze and everything is working properly apart from the webcam. When I open Cheese the webcam works but very slowly although it will not capture video. When I open Cheese > Preferences, I see the Device listed as USB 2.0 Camera (/dev/video0) but greyed out. When I open Skype > Options > Video I see the same greyed out listing but no image appears in the test area.

I recently switched to Linux. I got a Camcorder connected to my machine via firewire that under Win i used as a webcam. So I want the same to work in debian, but honestly i don't know how to do it. The thing i tried was to use a loopback device via v4l2loopback, so what i did exactly is:
1. install v4l2loopback
2. modprobe v4l2loopback
3. feed it via ffmpeg Code: Select allffmpeg -f iec61883 -i auto -f v4l2 /dev/video0this so far works like a charm, i can open the stream via vlc for example if i choose open device and point it to /dev/video0
My problem now is the device detection. For example "Cheese" and the adobe flash plugin doesn't recognize any webcam.

I am trying to stream from a webcam to mp4 file with avconv/ffmpeg with the GRBG pixel format. I can find a lot of ffmpeg commands and other stuff on google about a webcam stream to file with ffmpeg, but none of them use GRBG pixel format and are working for me ...

I'm looking for a USB-connected webcam that works ok with linux and performs well with outdoor lighting.My goal is simple: I want to connect it to my Debian router, point it out of the window and grab frames off the cam and make it available on a web page.I've got the setup working ok with some prehistoric cam, but the image is terrible. (It's a HW issue - the cam. is junk.) So I'd like to get a better cam.I know there are cams built specifically for this usage, but it's above my price range. For me, the most expensive I'm willing to go is the Logitech QuickCam Pro 9000 for Business (~130 USD in a local store), or preferably cheaper. I don't want/need any sort of enclosure for outdoors, as the cam will be indoors, behind a window.
Also, I wonder how does focusing work with linux. The only webcam I've ever had had a manual focus ring. Some of the cams claim to have autofocus. I guess it's host controlled. That probably doesn't work in Linux. (?) Anyway, for my usage, autofocus would be in the way, I suppose. (I don't want it to try to focus on the sheet of glass in front of the cam. )
Choising an hardware in LINUX is not easy since one has to check before whether it is supported. A large hardware base is supported , but not everything.
Which webcam is sponsored by DEBIAN TESTING that works surely with just a plug and play (skype / camorama...) ?
