Howdy, all
So, it turns out that the new camera in the Lenovo Thinkpad T410 is
(mostly) supported by the uvcvideo driver. The USB id is 17ef:480f. I
copied the stanza from 17ef:480b (another Lenovo-branded camera) in
uvc_driver.c and it Just Worked... well... mostly.
After a quick recompile (I'm running 2.6.33-rc6 with uvcvideo as a
module), it's been pretty straightforward to get JPEG out of the webcam,
but that "M" is still a challenge — I only seem to get a single frame
each time I start a recording. I've tried with a bunch of different
luvcview params, as well as with an ffmpeg incantation I found on the
antiquated OpenFacts UVC page.
I also noticed that using guvcview, I can consistently get a frame out
every time I change the resolution, even going up to 1600x1200.
Furthermore, I get that frame regardless of whether I'm in MJPEG or YUYV
mode. But I still never get two frames. I found a historical post ([1])
describing the exact same problem I'm running into, but unfortunately it
looks like the solution was "this was fixed in subversion", not any
actual hints.
I've attached the output of `lsusb -v -s 1:4` as root, in case it helps
give some insight. Any help getting the camera to display more than one
frame at a time would be appreciated.
Cheers,
