[gentoo-user] No Sound while video capturing with guvcview
Hi, may be one can help me... I am using a webcam (lsusb: Bus 001 Device 002: ID 1415:2000 Nam Tai EE Products Ltd. or OmniVision Technologies, Inc. Sony Playstation Eye) on my window board to capture videos from the crow, which often visits me in summer. The PS-Eye cam has one (four?) microphones to capture audio and delivers up to 60 fps. The setup was working last summer with video AND audio. This summer only video is captured. The resulting video file seems to contain a null audio (no sound samples other than zeroes...) When playing the file with mplayer, this is the output on the terminal (the video plays ok beside the fact that there is no sound to hear...) [aviheader] Video stream found, -vid 0 [aviheader] Audio stream found, -aid 1 Badly interleaved AVI file detected - switching to -ni mode... AVI: No audio stream found - no sound. VIDEO: [MJPG] 640x480 24bpp 60.094 fps 29695.7 kbps (3625.0 kbyte/s) Clip info: Title: Software: guvcview-1.4.5 Comments: Sun May 8 09:51:35 2011 == Opening video decoder: [ffmpeg] FFmpeg's libavcodec codec family Selected video codec: [ffmjpeg] vfm: ffmpeg (FFmpeg MJPEG) == == Opening audio decoder: [pcm] Uncompressed PCM audio decoder AUDIO: 44100 Hz, 1 ch, s16le, 705.6 kbit/100.00% (ratio: 88200-88200) Selected audio codec: [pcm] afm: pcm (Uncompressed PCM) == AO: [alsa] 48000Hz 1ch s16le (2 bytes per sample) Starting playback...

Best regards mcc From your output it shows that the sound is not null. Does your sound works playing other files (alsamixer)? Can you record now a picture with the webcam and play it with sound after? Kfir
