Ubuntu Multimedia :: [skype] UVC Camera Ok In Test, Not Working In Calls?
Jan 14, 2010I've a issue on Skype 2.1 beta, my Ubuntu version is Karmic Koala. Well, my camera works perfectly in guvcview and in skype test (I already modified config.xml in my user dir to have 640x480, my cam is Ricoh r5870). OK, as soon as I start my video or I get itautomatically started it goes 320x240 and very bad. I turn it off during the call and I restart it: it works perfectly. Could I solve this issue by telling skype to open the video "just like if it were the second time" ?

May 17, 2010Ever sense i updated to 10.4 skype's video calling for me has turned a light shade of blue, nothing that really tampers with my call, just annoying the snot out of me because the person im talking to is blue.
Also I do not think its my cameras drivers because not only am I a shade of blue, but the person I am talking to is also blue and they say that I on their screen look fine. When i run a camera test with skype everything is a shade of blue as well.
I cannot for the life of me find a way to test my camera outside of skype.

Fedora :: F11: Browse To Digital Camera From Command Line?
Mar 24, 2010When I plug in my digital camera (Canon Elph) it shows up in Nautilus, however I'm trying to write a script that will work from the command line. I don't see the camera in the /media folder, nor do I see it in /mnt. When I browse to it through nautilus it shows up as "gphoto2://[usb:001,008]/" with the "008" changing each time. how do I see my files through bash?

Aug 29, 2010I was trying to write a script, but for some reason I can't test two variables using -gt:
a=`expr $currentSize + 0`
b=`expr $fileSize + 0`
[$a -gt $b]
this is what I get:
[22234534: not found
what is the problem? It seems like I can't check if a variable is greater than another but only if a variable is greater than a fixed number. Is that so? By the way the variables $fileSize and $currentSize exist and $a and $b have a value.

Feb 7, 2011I need to run a self-test on my external USB drive and don't want to use System -> Disk Utility.I've taken a look at the man page for udisks and curiously, there does not appear to be an option for self tests. Is there a way to run a self test using udisks directly from the command line?

Aug 28, 2010I recently did an upgrade to ubunut 10.04. I have a nikon d70 that I plugged into the computer to download the pictures off of but to my surprise my computer no longer sees the camera. I did a search and found a few threads about USB cameras and skype but nothing about this issue. Is there anyone else having this problem?
Is there a fix for it? So far everything has been working OK with UBUNTU 10.04 I would hate to go back to windows xp only because I am not able to download the pictures from my camera.
Ubuntu Multimedia :: UVC Camera To Run At 30 Fps?
Jan 14, 2011Can I run this camera:

as something other than a UVC driven camera?
It appears that UVC in 640x480 format is only available at 15 fps. I need to record at fps=30. So I can splice into existing video.
Code:
#!/bin/bash
##Turn on webcam and save video and audio output to file.

View 2 Replies View RelatedUbuntu Multimedia :: Copy Files To Camera Via USB?
Apr 1, 2010I deleted files from my camera (SDHC via USB) which I now want to copy back but I don't know how.
The camera is mounted in ~/.gvfs and the target folder is owned by my user with read/execute permissions. Couldn't change the folders permission.
I tried to mount the camera using 'gksu nautilus', but the camera didn't show up in the side panel. Unfortunately I don't know how to mount the camera from the command line, so I'm stuck.
PS: the only available card reader doesn't recognize SDHC cards, so that's not an option. And no, I won't boot Windows for that task.
Ubuntu Multimedia :: IP Camera Video Streaming
Apr 6, 2010My local priest has asked me if I can use my computer skills to stream church services live for people who can't make it to church.I said, sure thing! I thought it would be simple, but the deeper I look into it, the more lost I have become!Here's the tech requirements:
- A camera with good optical zoom and focused on the altar (the camera will be stationed at an unobtrusive point at the back of the church on the choir balcony)
- Everything must be wireless (power is available on choir balcony to power the camera).
- Sound should be synchronised perfectly with the video (have access to the church PA system - located behind altar)
- the internet connection should be able to upload the stream to a virtual server (i.e. with root access) that's accessible to the web with ease. What upload speed would I need? Would 256k be enough? HD video is not required - ..... quality would be great. We can upgrade to HD at a later point in time!
- What bandwidth requirement would my server need if say 1000 users were connected? Seeing as they would most likely be locals, would just one stream be sent to the local exchange and that exchange would send out the stream to the 1,000 users, or would each user have to have a dedicated connection to the server?
- Say I bought a camcorder with HDMI output, what kind of processing power would I need to convert this to compressed video? (I've got an old Pentium 4 and an AMD64 2.0GHz lying idle in my bedroom and it would be great to make use of 'em instead of chucking 'em on the skip)
- I'd like all this to be done so that HTML5 browsers can access the video, resorting to flash if necessary
- I'd also like to be able to power down all the hardware with ease: i.e. set a timer. I'm sure ubuntu can do this with ease? What about configuring the camera to zoom in every time it is powered on? Can linux control the zoom on a camcorder?
- Am I totally nuts?
Ubuntu Multimedia :: Changing Resolution For Usb Camera?
May 22, 2010I've been having a fit with Ubuntu (even tried updating to the new version). I have a USB camera (1.3mp- 1024x768 ) that I need to observe and capture images with (microphotography). I've downloaded and installed multiple packages, but have not found any way to change the default resolutions for V4l2. The resolution closest to what I need is 1024x816, but the video is torn and unusable. One program, Kamoso, worked fine in 640x480 mode, but as soon as I upgraded to Ubuntu 10, it went to the higher resolution (1024x816) which doesn't work right.
Is there some way to force v4l2 into a 1024x768 mode? The camera is a Tucsen 1.3mp microscope camera. I've emailed the company for more information and to see if they would email me the software/drivers (I lost the driver disk in a fire), but nothing so far from them.
The programs I've installed and tried: Camorama, Kamoso, Xsane, Cheese, VLC media player, v4l2ctrl, v4l2ucp, v4lctl, v4l-info. Camorama doesn't work, Kamoso- you couldn't change resolutions (ditto for Xsane), Cheese - I can change resolutions, but they have these crazy values that don't work, VLC media I cannot change either. I'm supposed to be able to use v4l2ucp to change settings, but I don't get the screen that the preview for the program (in Ubuntu Software) showed.

Jun 17, 2010who has a hitachi dvd cam. makes movies records them to dvd's. but the permissions of the disk do not allow for anybody to open them?
I can gksu nautilus to find the permissions of the disk are set to "-1 - user #-1"
what is this about and how do i fix it so that i can read/copy/do anything with the disk without root permission?
the owner permissions are set by the camera, i'm assuming, because the actual disk creation has nothing to do with ubuntu at all.
Ubuntu Multimedia :: Camera Could Not Claim USB Device?
Aug 13, 2010This appears to be a frequently-asked question, but unfortunately all the answers I have been able to find are either outdated or refer to software I am not using.

How do I find out what module has claimed the camera, and permanently remove it or prevent it from ever doing so again? Is there some method of telling gphoto2 (or any other camera-handling program) to stamp all over anything else that has laid claim to a device and brute-force its way?

I've only used this camera like this with Mac OSX, in which I press a button a couple folders pop up with everything in them which I can then digitize in Final Cut Pro. I'd prefer being able to use my Ubuntu setup with Open Source Software to view and edit this footage.
how to get ubuntu and this camera to talk to each other and play nice?
