Public bug reported: Trying to access my webcam at /dev/video0 always fails with ffmpeg. It still works with vlc.
My old scripts do not work anymore and even the simplest example: `ffmpeg -f video4linux2 -s 640x480 -r 1 -i /dev/video0 -vframes 1 -f image2 image.jpg` from http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/Webcam does not work anymore. It resulst in errors like http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=11719668 . Alway containing a error like 'ioctl set time per frame(1/5) failed'. ** Affects: ffmpeg (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/941426 Title: ffmpeg fails at webcam access To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ffmpeg/+bug/941426/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
