Hey Brent - did you have any luck with analog video capture on the BBB? I need to also capture analog video and am struggling to find a solution that is capable of 30fps NTSC. What did you end up doing to solve your problem??? On Monday, October 14, 2013 7:31:11 PM UTC-7, Brent wrote: I wish

I ended up buying an encoder from Grandstream that converts analog video to Ethernet. Once the camera is on Ethernet, you can use mplayer or the player of your choice to play the mjpeg/rtsp stream. On Fri, Jul 18, 2014 at 12:21 PM, ctmatthie...@gmail.com wrote: Hey Brent - did you have any

As far as you did, it appears. I was not the one who actually worked with the ezcap or the USB-Live 2 devices, but the failure was attributed to the BBB's inability to support isochronous transfers from the device. Devices using the uvcvideo driver seems to work just fine, but others do not.

Thanks, The defconfig for the 3.12.0-rc5-bone6 kernel does not appear to have DMA disabled, I was hoping this might make all the difference, but it seems not :( Jon On Monday, 21 October 2013 13:19:42 UTC+1, Brent wrote: As far as you did, it appears. I was not the one who actually worked

What kind of frame rates and resolutions do you need? Also, do you need full color or shades of grey will do? The NTSC signal isn't that hard to decode depending on your specific requirements. Depending on where you are on things, the PRU or other things might be able to do it. On Fri October

By the way, I think I may have settled on the TVP5150 decoder chip from TI. Using the reference schematic from herehttp://www.sleepyrobot.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/tvp5151_sch.pdfI think I may have a chance. However, does anyone have any pointers on which signals I need to connect to

I wish the USB based NTSC capture dongle were that simple. I've tried Hauppauge USB Live-2, and Easy-Cap, but neither work with the BeagleBone Black. It seems that the BBB is to slow for that. I've considered the camera capes that are available, but really need a solution that interfaces with
