Hello Camaleón (and others!), I tried to connect the camera over USB and it worked with streamer:
root@pips04:/home/matpro# streamer -o test_streamer.avi -f rgb24 -r 25 -t 0:10 But before you need to enter this: root@pips04:/home/matpro# export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l1compat.so Don't really know why this is necessary with Debian Squeeze (besides that it is necessary...), should be done by the OS actually (bug?). Some information for that connection method: root@pips04:/home/matpro# dmesg [...] [ 173.173619] usb 2-1.3: new full speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 3 [ 173.271599] usb 2-1.3: New USB device found, idVendor=04da, idProduct=231d [ 173.271604] usb 2-1.3: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3 [ 173.271608] usb 2-1.3: Product: DVC [ 173.271611] usb 2-1.3: Manufacturer: Panasonic [ 173.271613] usb 2-1.3: SerialNumber: 000011946045 [ 173.271749] usb 2-1.3: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice [ 173.652873] Linux video capture interface: v2.00 [ 173.715472] uvcvideo: Found UVC 1.00 device DVC (04da:231d) [ 173.717269] input: DVC as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.0/usb2/2-1/2-1.3/2-1.3:1.0/input/input12 [ 173.717413] usbcore: registered new interface driver uvcvideo [ 173.717419] USB Video Class driver (v0.1.0) [ 173.730212] usbcore: registered new interface driver snd-usb-audio root@pips04:/home/matpro# lsusb Bus 002 Device 003: ID 04da:231d Panasonic (Matsushita) DVC Web Camera Device Bus 002 Device 002: ID 8087:0020 Intel Corp.
