hey all, I'm doing a workshop in HK in about 13 days.
I wanted to demo pix_video, but I can't seem to get things working on my eee pc. The device is working with v4l2, I can get a feed from mplayer with: mplayer tv:// -tv driver=v4l2:device=/dev/video0:fps=30 seems generic enough. Here is the output regarding video format: Opening video decoder: [raw] RAW Uncompressed Video VDec: vo config request - 640 x 480 (preferred colorspace: Packed YUY2) VDec: using Packed YUY2 as output csp (no 0) Movie-Aspect is undefined - no prescaling applied. VO: [xv] 640x480 => 640x480 Packed YUY2 Selected video codec: [rawyuy2] vfm: raw (RAW YUY2) I'm working with an svn copy of GEM updated yesterday. I'm configuring with: ./configure --prefix=/usr --without-libv4l1 --with-libv4l2-libs=/usr/lib/ --with-libv4l2-includes=/usr/include/ and GEM complains about the camera when I start pix_video (and I get no video image): v4l: VDIOCGCHAN: Invalid argument This device/camera must only have one channel? I can't tell if I'm using v4l1 or 2. configure tells me v4l: yes not matter if its v4l1 or v4l2 I enable. I also have a vague memory that configure should tell me what v4l its using, like: v4l: yes (libv4l2) but I can't get that output with any combination of flags. Did I imagine it? Anyhow let me know if anyone has a working uvc webcam in gem (linux-intrepid) or better yet working eeepc webcam. Thanks all. Here is a link to what I'm doing here in HK: http://www.videotage.org.hk/projects/20090514_dreamingmachine.htm I'll have to make another post about some issues with pix_crop, and pix_buffer save, which forced me to change some aspects of the project! ..b.. _______________________________________________ GEM-dev mailing list GEM-dev@iem.at http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/gem-dev
