Can someone update the status on this? gst-launch v4l2src ! xvimagesink and derivatives like it work. Its cheese that hangs. I have a gateway LT21 with Chicony (internal) Electronics webcam. Noticed that 640x480 is maximum input, 320x240 is standard setting.(well in windows 7 anyway, which has been removed) Maybe cheese sets this too high on startup?? I noticed if I load cheese, reset the input size, then reload uvc module as stated above I can capture video. There is noticeable lagtime, however, on video capture. I get a black screen when I hit the capture button, but the video does indeed capture and cheese doesnt lock up when I stop the capture as it did before. I have the uvcvideo module now loaded on startup.

[Bug 290506] Re: cheese malfunctioning with UVCVIDEO webcams (was cheese doesn't show v4l2 video output and disables output on gstreamer-based apps ran afterwards)
Okay, today i gave Fedora another try and Cheese also failed there. So it looks like this is a very unfortunate situation with my particular setup. My Webcam always needs a little longer to initialize when it is plugged in and no driver was previously loaded, but other applications have no problem with that. It might be a firmware bug or just the the way my cam is probed by cheese. I don't know. However, it is an issue and i can always reproduce by the following steps: - unplug the cam - sudo rmmod uvcvideo - plug the cam - start cheese 'cheese -v' doesn't show any errors because the probe fails gracefully after the 10 second period. uvcvideo trace logs don't show any errors because the driver is only waiting for the first data to arrive. So everything works as long as the camera initialization isn't interrupted - which is the case with my webcam and it's ridiculous 16 second init time. :) I realize that there is still some error elsewhere - maybe in cheese, gstreamer or the driver - but with no error messages in either the cheese logs, or the uvcvideo traces i am at the moment unable to debug this any further. I will do some more research though. Meanwhile, I would love to see the workaround in the attached patch ( 91_raise_timeout.patch ) included in cheese for karmic. It simply raises the probing timeout from 10 to 30 seconds. This patch should not affect working cameras. However, cameras with a probing time similar to mine ( 10sec. ) will have some more time to initialize and thus get detected correctly by cheese. ** Attachment added: Raises the probing timeout of cheese to 30 seconds http://launchpadlibrarian.net/30654339/91_raise_timeout.patch -- cheese malfunctioning with UVCVIDEO webcams (was cheese doesn't show v4l2 video output and disables output on gstreamer-based apps ran afterwards) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/290506 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gstreamer0.10 in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 290506] Re: cheese malfunctioning with UVCVIDEO webcams (was cheese doesn't show v4l2 video output and disables output on gstreamer-based apps ran afterwards)
This bug still affects me in Ubuntu Karmic. Compiling the latest driver from http://linuxtv.org/hg/~pinchartl/uvcvideo makes no difference. Basically, every tool (skype, ekiga, luvcview, gst-launch v4l2src ! xvimagesink, ...) except Cheese works fine. Cheese fails to detect the webcam due to extremely long probing times (~16 seconds on my machine for the first access after a freshly loaded uvcvideo module - either through a reboot, or by hand via rmmod/modprobe), and when the cam light finally comes up, cheese already has given up (happens after 10 seconds - this is hardcoded in cheese). When that happens, the state of the webcam/uvcvideo seems to be corrupted somehow. Any access to the webcam with any tool, either cheese or somethig else, fails afterwards. The only fix then is to rmmod/modprobe uvcvideo again. After doing that, the webcam works correct - even in cheese ( ~2-4 seconds probing time ). Raising the hardcoded timeout in src/cheese-webcam.c from 10 to 30 seconds seems to be a good workaround that works most of the time for me, but it is not a real solution to the problem at hand. I tried to reproduce the bug with an Fedora 11 LiveCD, but there everything went fine. Probes to the cam never lasted longer than 2 seconds and the image was always displayed instantly after that. Accessing the cam with other tools after cheese 'initialized' the driver went fine too. So is anyone else still having problems? -- cheese malfunctioning with UVCVIDEO webcams (was cheese doesn't show v4l2 video output and disables output on gstreamer-based apps ran afterwards) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/290506 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gstreamer0.10 in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

For those having problems with cheese and webcams, you might want to try running the following script on a terminal window: while true; do echo /dev/null; done Doing that eliminates the hang ups and super slow frame rate problems I was having with cheese and my two different webcams. It appears cheese or the gstreamer/v4l2 layers underneath malfunction whenever the CPU frequency on my laptop is at its lowest level of 800MHz. When that script is running it makes the kernel hike the frequency to the max of 2.4GHz and cheese starts working perfectly. Stop the script and the frequency drops to 800MHz and cheese starts malfunctioning again. The command gst-launch v4l2src ! xvimagesink behaves exactly like cheese on my laptop. The luvcview program also does the same thing even though it calls directly into v4l2 instead of going through gstreamer. . -- cheese malfunctioning with UVCVIDEO webcams (was cheese doesn't show v4l2 video output and disables output on gstreamer-based apps ran afterwards) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/290506 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gstreamer0.10 in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

There is still one problem with cheese. 1. If you take a photo using cheese, it flashes the screen and makes it all white and after that never returns back to normal display. I have to press Alt+Ctrl+F1 and kill cheese manually. This is annoying. The video is recording is fine, but the photo has regressed. This happens when you use no effects. I did not have this problem when I used some other effects I cannot say if all the effects fix this problem, but that is very queer. Taking photos has become a pain now.

I just got an update of the 2.6.27-11-generic kernel and my webcam is no longer working. I don't think it can even detect the webcam anymore. Cheese fails to load and skype cannot see my webcam now. This has happened only recently when the update for version 11 of the kernel came up. The initial version 2.6.27-9 kernel was not able to use the webcam on cheese, but I could use skype. I was watching this thread that the fix has come up in the new kernel. But then the new kernel is a big disappointment - I'm sorry to say. It can't even recognize my webcam now. Mine is a HP integrated webcam that comes in an HP laptop. It was working perfectly when I used the Stefan Bader kernel patch in November 2008.

Sorry, My bad. I figured the problem. I had disabled the AT SPI Registry at startup in order to reduce startup time. But I think that was not allowing access to the webcam. I'm sorry.

That is how a layman will think.

Actually, Emilio, the -11 kernel was just moved to -updates; however, it takes a couple of hours from the time you see the bug closing message to the time when it's available for installation, perhaps more if you're using a mirror that takes a while to sync.

I don't want to be a nag, but I've just seen the same bug on an 2920 Acer Aspire laptop. Here's what I've done: 1. Please don't try to compile from source UNLESS you know what you're doing, OR you're willing to look for support at the mentioned forum thread. Ok. The user has tried that already, and it didn't work. 2. If you enable proposed repo, at this time the kernel -11 would be installed. This kernel ALREADY include the patches needed to make the webcams affected by this issue work. Proposed repos enabled and kernel updated. Still no go. 3. If you're experiencing slowness in cheese you can install the libv4l 0.5.7 package from Loic's PPA while the SRU is being approved. Installed libv4l-0 version 0.5.7.1~dooz1. I don't know if this is the right version (if it isn't, please tell me how to install it). Still no go, anyway. Chese was working flawlessly in 8.04.

Will, were you careful enough to run all commands at once (instead of line-by-line)? On my first time around, I didn't read the instructions and ran them line-by-line and it didn't work.

For all the users affected by this bug: 1. Please don't try to compile from source UNLESS you know what you're doing, OR you're willing to look for support at the mentioned forum thread. 2. If you enable proposed repo, at this time the kernel -11 would be installed. This kernel ALREADY include the patches needed to make the webcams affected by this issue work. 3. If you're experiencing slowness in cheese you can install the libv4l 0.5.7 package from Loic's PPA while the SRU is being approved. 4. If you're still facing this issue is probably another bug, so we'll need to check with the ones still affected in order to find and already reported bug or open a new one.

@everybody: Please also note that libv4l 0.5.6 has got a nasty bug that prevents uvcvideo webcams to correctly work. So the kernel alone is not enough to make Cheese work again. The new libv4l 0.5.7, with the fix, already went through a SRU and should enter intrepid-proposed soon (if it didn't yet) (see bug #308890).

To clarify the current situation: the currently available latest version of Intrepid (10.20) will not fix the problem, since the patches went into the repo too late. I refreshed my PPA to include those and a few other changes based on 10.20. So until the next -proposed upload, the only kernel that includes the fix will be the one in the PPA. -- cheese malfunctioning with UVCVIDEO webcams (was cheese doesn't show v4l2 video output and disables output on gstreamer-based apps ran afterwards) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/290506 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gstreamer0.10 in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Cheese would not work for me several weeks ago (it would always hang at startup, without ever displaying an image), but today it functioned correctly. The resolution at first was extremely low, but I was able to increase it without any crash. Then I tried changing the effects and cheese stopped responding. Even if I kill the program and load it again, it hangs immediately. Two questions: 1 - I'm fairly certain that cheese hangs at startup because it is trying to apply effects. But because it always hangs, I cannot tell it to stop trying. Is there any file I can edit to get around this? 2 - Has anyone else encountered this behavior, ie cheese working correctly so long as no effects are selected? What might be causing this and how can it be fixed? -- cheese malfunctioning with UVCVIDEO webcams (was cheese doesn't show v4l2 video output and disables output on gstreamer-based apps ran afterwards) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/290506 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gstreamer0.10 in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Hi folks, I think parts of this bug were also worked around in libv4l. The last two releases of libv4l in particular address two serious bug, one being the cheese slowness and the other being an issue with uvcvideo driver: libv4l-0.5.6 * Always do a s_fmt on uvc cams even if this changes nothing, as not doing the s_fmt triggers a bug in the uvcvideo driver in kernel = 2.6.28 (with certain cams) libv4l-0.5.5 * Avoid the use of try_fmt as much as possible on UVC cams, instead use the results of the enum_framesizes ioctl. This is because: 1) try_fmt actually causes IO with UVC cams making apps which do lot of querrying of device capabilities slow (cheese) 2) some buggy cams don't like getting lots of UVC video probes and crash when they do I've pushed an updated libv4l to my intrepid ppa at: https://launchpad.net/~lool/+archive If you see any /regression/ from intrepid's libv4l (0.5.0-3~intrepid1) in cheese or any other app caused by the upgrade to libv4l 0.5.6-1, please notify this bug or notify me. If this update improves things in any way, I'm also interested! The actual libv4l SRU is currently being prepared in bug #286070, where your comments on the libv4l improvements / regressions are also welcome. -- cheese malfunctioning with UVCVIDEO webcams (was cheese doesn't show v4l2 video output and disables output on gstreamer-based apps ran afterwards) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/290506 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gstreamer0.10 in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

SRU justification: Impact: In Intrepid the change to v4l2 and use of v4l1 compatibility library has caused several issues with the uvcvideo driver which in this case are visible using cheese. Fix: Several patches were backported from the upstream kernel driver and the uvcvideo project to fix those issues. All of the patches are limited to the uvcvideo module and have been tested as part of a PPA build. Testcase: With the current driver in Intrepid the webcams do not work with cheese.
