Hi, I have a Philips Vesta Pro cam and have got everything running fine, but after a short time of reading data from the camera, no more data is sent.
After redirecting output from /dev/video to a file, it appears that around 13Mb of video data is sent before it stops. Closing and reopening the connection to /dev/video works, but again, only for a limited period of time / size of data. Has anyone else had similar problems? I have no idea if this is a problem with USB or the cam drivers. I'm using ohci, Linux 2.4.10 (the same problem has occurred on earlier kernels), and am running an Acer Travelmate 210TE laptop. If it helps, here's the error message from xawtv: v4l: timeout (got SIGALRM), hardware/driver problems? ioctl: VIDIOCSYNC(0): Interrupted system call v4l: timeout (got SIGALRM), hardware/driver problems? ioctl: VIDIOCSYNC(1): Interrupted system call I've also tried with other programs, including one I wrote myself. Thanks, Matt _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, use the last form field at: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-usb-users
