Ok, I've set gstreamer-properties video output to "X Window System (No Xv)" (ximagesink), and the test works, but Cheese still doesn't.
In fact it shows just a single still image, rather than video. With `cheese --gst-debug-level=2` I get the following warnings: 0:00:05.245175219 2035 0x957c068 WARN bin gstbin.c:2312:gst_bin_do_latency_func:<pipeline> failed to query latency 0:00:07.836997826 2035 0x963fb10 WARN basetransform gstbasetransform.c:1047:gst_base_transform_acceptcaps:<video_scale> transform could not transform video/x-raw-yuv, format=(fourcc)I420, width=(int)160, height=(int)120, framerate=(fraction)30/1, pixel-aspect-ratio=(fraction)1/1 in anything we support 0:00:08.432900585 2035 0x963fb10 WARN basetransform gstbasetransform.c:1047:gst_base_transform_acceptcaps:<video_scale> transform could not transform video/x-raw-yuv, format=(fourcc)I420, width=(int)160, height=(int)120, framerate=(fraction)30/1, pixel-aspect-ratio=(fraction)1/1 in anything we support 0:00:08.528301133 2035 0x9625e40 WARN basetransform gstbasetransform.c:1047:gst_base_transform_acceptcaps:<capsfilter1> transform could not transform video/x-raw-rgb, bpp=(int)32, depth=(int)24, endianness=(int)4321, red_mask=(int)65280, green_mask=(int)16711680, blue_mask=(int)-16777216, width=(int)160, height=(int)120, framerate=(fraction)30/1, pixel-aspect-ratio=(fraction)1/1 in anything we support ...and the same warning appears at different frame sizes. When I change the frame size, I get this critical error: ** (cheese:2035): CRITICAL **: cheese_camera_set_video_format: assertion `format == NULL' failed -- gst-launch cannot connect to gspca webcam https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/516051 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
