Sorry if this is not the place, but I'm desperate for guidance on how to access an webcam with Pixart PAC207BCA (vid/pid 0x093A:0x2468) via gspca pac207. Ekiga can retrieve image data, but apparently it uses a different system!? When I try to grab a frame with FFmpeg version r11872+debian_3:0.svn20080206-12ubuntu3 I get ... [video4linux2 @ 0xb80aa388][3]Capabilities: 5000001 [video4linux2 @ 0xb80aa388]Cannot find a proper format. /dev/video0: I/O error occured Usually that means that input file is truncated and/or corrupted.
and dmesg shows gspca: usb_submit_urb [0] err -28 I have compiled and installed libv4l-0.5.8-1 but no difference. I need to stream from the camera and tried http://mjpg-streamer.wiki.sourceforge.net/ which does not work. Could someone give instructions on how to get this working? -- needed: libv4l and associated application patches (or "gspca stopped working in 2.6.27") https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/260918 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
