afaik there were two problems, depending on the version of the underlying fedora. a) gst-plugins-good (with the v4l2src plugin) was not installed b) the user "olpc" was not inside the "video" group furthermore, i got some segfaults when i tested record on a fedora 12, coming from the cairo code (which is calling the installed cairo lib) which is used by record. however i did not manage to track down that bug. > > Sorry, I'm a bit stuck with it, my plans were to rewrite Record-65 > > and make lightweight Record: > > > > * w/o collaboration feature as it was designed in existed Record > > * it just share records, I'm planing to do the same on Journal level > > * it just doesn't work well(especially for big files) > > * w/o gtk.Windows that represent Record's controls, only widgets > > * using more robust gst scheme > > > > I decide to use camerabin[1] gst plugin which is a good option for > > Record but it doesn't work(stop w/ gst errors on recording) any help > > from people who are aware of such gst and video recording stuff is > > appreciated. > > > > [1] > > http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/data/doc/gstreamer/head/gst-plugins-bad-plugins/html/gst-plugins-bad-plugins-camerabin.html > > Maybe Daniel Siegel of Cheese fame can give some insight on that? we (cheese) want to use camerabin too, and thats where we are heading for the next release. camerabin does a great job of simplifying the whole process of taking photos and videos. it is already in use in the nokia n900 device. please be also aware that camerabin is still in gst-plugins-bad and is not finished entirely. see this wiki page for further information: http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/wiki/CameraBin hope this helps! ;) best, daniel > Added him to CC > > Regards, > > Tomeu > -- this mail was sent using 100% recycled electrons ================================================ daniel g. siegel <[email protected]> http://home.cs.tum.edu/~siegel gnupg key id: 0x6EEC9E62 fingerprint: DE5B 1F64 9034 1FB6 E120 DE10 268D AFD5 6EEC 9E62 encrypted email preferred
