Re: [Linux-uvc-devel] Adjust Light Frequency Filter

2010-04-01 Thread Paulo Assis
Hi,
Try guvcview with the option --control_only, this should work along
side any other v4l2 app and you will be able to change the camera
control settings.

Best regards.

 I have a Chicony 2.0 USB Camera (04f2:b008) that almost works perfectly.
 Right now, I can get it to work perfectly in both luvsview and Empathy.
 Unfortunately, the image is too dark to be useful when the light frequency
 filter is off. Using luvsview, I can easily change this value to 50 or 60Hz
 with its GUI.
 Is there a way to implement the same fix for Empathy? The chat client
 doesn't currently provide a way to change this setting, and I'm not
 experienced enough to write a piece of software that's able to, if that's
 even possible. On Windows, I had a configuration tool that could update the
 webcam settings while I was video chatting, but I don't see something
 similar for Linux.
 In short, is there a way to change the light frequency filter settings in a
 program I didn't write?
 Thanks so much!

 Sorry about the Danish, but I live in Denmark ;-)

 I had just run Linux  for 2 weeks so I am new into this. Printer + scanner +
 Webcam had I not been able to run yet. But still I have hope. Today I get
 the message from my online bank that it could not be run under Linux so that
 are a serious problem I get here.

 Have a nice day.

Hi,

 change uvcvideo.conf in /etc/modprobe.d to

By the way, I believe you can do this during _runtime_ of the kernel
 module, without rmmod'ing:
echo 16 /sys/module/uvcvideo/parameters/quirks
echo 255/sys/module/uvcvideo/parameters/trace

Re: [Linux-uvc-devel] OmniVision / I've screwed my system

2010-04-01 Thread Jeff Van Epps
By changing some uvc_trace(UVC_TRACE_VIDEO to
uvc_trace(UVC_TRACE_IOCTL I was able to get out this message:

uvcvideo: No fast enough alt setting for requested bandwidth.

That gets printed the line before the return -EIO.

I had options trace=255 from earlier. Hunted a bit and figured I could
probably just set options trace=65535 to get UVC_TRACE_VIDEO to work
too. Yep, one of the calls whose param I didn't change came out this time:

uvcvideo: Device requested 5767680 B/frame bandwidth.

Doesn't seem to make any difference whether I leave quirks=16 in or
remove it.

What are alt settings?

Where can I go from here?
