Same here on hardy (cheese 2.21.5).... Webcam works well , except when trying to capture video. Clicking on Start recording turns the input image black and switches the webcam off.
Error message I get: (cheese:24936): GStreamer-CRITICAL **: gst_implements_interface_cast: assertion `gst_element_implements_interface (GST_ELEMENT (from), iface_type)' failed ** (cheese:24936): CRITICAL **: gst_x_overlay_set_xwindow_id: assertion `overlay != NULL' failed ** Message: Error: Lo stream non contiene dati. gsttypefindelement.c(742): gst_type_find_element_activate (): /play/decodebin0/typefind: Can't typefind empty stream ** Message: Error: Impossibile determinare il tipo di stream. gsttypefindelement.c(757): gst_type_find_element_activate (): /play/decodebin0/typefind totem-video-thumbnailer couldn't open file 'file:///home/simone/.gnome2/cheese/media/0004.ogg' Reason: Lo stream non contiene dati.. etc... -- cheese won't record video https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/179308 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
