I recently bought this wireless webcam; http://www.maplin.co.uk/2.4ghz-wireless-webcam-388087 . I'm having trouble getting it to work on Ubuntu 11.04.
I ran lsusb and got the folowing information about the device: Bus 006 Device 003: ID 0416:a91a Winbond Electronics Corp. I did a Google serach for the device ID and the Linux UVC website (http://www.ideasonboard.org/uvc/ ) informs me that it matches the LogiLink Wireless Webcam (so Maplin probably just rebranded this!). What this website states is that this device should work, which it doesn't. The problem I'm facing is that I don't get any actual video being streamed or shown. The built in microphone works and, when running Cheese, when I press the camera button on the webcam itself the software recognises that the button is pressed. On that note, when running cheese from the terminal with this webcam attached I get the following error: libv4l2: error getting pixformat: Invalid argument libv4l2: error setting pixformat: Input/output error Any help is appreciated -- ============================ anto...@hellocatfood.com http://www.hellocatfood.com ============================ _______________________________________________ Linux-uvc-devel mailing list Linux-uvc-devel@lists.berlios.de https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/linux-uvc-devel
