-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi Laurent,
here are new ideas for FAQ: - - I got a new webcam or laptop with build in cam, but it's not working, what should i do? UVC (usb video class) is same kind standard class like UMS (usb mass storage). One of good UMS examples is usb stick. If you will need to install driver to use usb stick it will make no sense and if it is not working on linux it is most probably broken. Same situation is with UVC webcams. *If it is not working with modern linux distribution or any modern linux kernel, then this device is most probably broken!* And if you still can, then give or send it back! - - With app XYZ my webcam is not working, is my cam or app is broken? there are different apps to test webcam: luvcview, guvcview, cheese, mplayer, vlc, skype. We prefer to test it with luvcview or guvcview. The cams can also support different formats, yuv, jpeg, ... in this case try different. PS: Please add reminder on first page: read FAQ before send email. - -- Regards, Alexey -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk7WSL0ACgkQw8E0jNwoJm/ZNwCgrTLnjUTb/qX2TEeDzkhAnwHb lgEAnA3dW/YZ2BIL9kSE46opEdupsY3I =HD8s -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Linux-uvc-devel mailing list Linux-uvc-devel@lists.berlios.de https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/linux-uvc-devel
