- if you have libv4l installed but cannot upgrade gem to a reason that

Hi Iohannes,

this is Hans's reply:

 FC8 is end of life, and never had libv4l, may I suggest
 upgrading to a newer Fedora?

So first, do you think it is actually possible?

On the other hand, I have no problem attempting to compile it, but I am not
familiar with the logic behind devel libraries, what would be the source I
would need to compile from? I had thought all this time that devel libraries
were essentially headers and the like and didn't require compilation

best,

i really don't know.
but usually things are lot easier than one would expect...

yes, but there are no devel-packages for fc8, are there?

so: libXXX and libXXX-devel packages are built from sources
your distro might provide these sources as a source-package (e.g. 
libXXX.rpms) or not; but the original authors might/will provide their 
sources as well.
e.g. you can get libv4l from hans's site, e.g. 
http://people.atrpms.net/~hdegoede/libv4l-0.5.9.tar.gz


grab this package; untar it; read the README.txt/INSTALL.txt or whatever 
doc applies);

then do something like
% ./configure
% make
# make install

and you should have libv4l installed into /usr/local/, effectively 
bypassing your package-manager.


you might need to install other packages in order for this to work, but 
i am not familiar with fc (and even less with fc8).
you might be totally out of luck, and it won't build for your 
distro/version. in this case you might have to upgrade to a newer fc.


but you might as well have luck and it works...

No, unfortunately I didn't try that yet, but I'm sure it will also work 
for more than 30 fps, because these erroneous pictures appeared also 
with arbitrary frame rates and dimensions.


I'm having some problems with v4l cameras at the moment which prevent me 
from using higher frame rates: it's consuming too much cpu (80% for one 
camera at 640x480, 30fps, Centrino 1.6GHz, ubuntu intrepid and jaunty, 
various kernel versions). I Don't know what's the reason for this, but 
it's also with other cameras and other v4l applications, appearing to be 
a v4l problem in general.


I'll report further success.

Martin

2009-05-28 Thread Martin Schied

obviously I couldn't sleep without having this done...

@Jaime: I tried setting 75fps @ 320x240 which also works fine with Gem.

v4l cpu consumption is much lower (35% to 40%) in debian unstable (I was 
using sidux live cd for that)
would be interesting how much cpu consumption other operating systems 
have compared to this, especially mac os-x. I'll start a new topic on this.

buying that cam. i already tried several resolutions + fps at module 
load time, wich works for other applications than GEM. that was 
approximately one week ago. but i'm not sure if it was the latest driver 
available though. I made a flickr account, so I'll be able to upload 
some pictures of the errors later.
