@ Brad Johnson Just wanted to thank you for suggesting the use of vloopback. I just had a long video conversation with someone using Ekiga. I went with: ./resize /dev/video0 /dev/video1 352x288 176x144 rgb24
@all In order to get better video quality I had to pass some gain parameters to the gspca module on load: modprobe gspca GRed=512 GBlue=512 GGreen=512 force_rgb=0 I also tried the patch mentioned earlier. Still got cropping. Luckily this vloopback is at least a temporary solution :) I didn't get to test with skype yet. What applications are people here using for testing the video cropping? I tend to go back and forth with ekiga, camorama, gqcam, and spcaview. That last one works the best and has no cropping issues. It also gives lots of useful info about your camera. Here's what mine shows: **************** PROBING CAMERA ********************* Camera found: ICM532 cam Bridge found: TV8532 StreamId: GBRG Camera quality 0 autoexpo 1 Timeframe 0 lightfreq 50 Available Resolutions width 640 heigth 480 native Available Resolutions width 352 heigth 288 native Available Resolutions width 320 heigth 240 native * Available Resolutions width 176 heigth 144 native Available Resolutions width 160 heigth 120 native unable to probe size !! ***************************************************** Get spcaview here: http://mxhaard.free.fr/spca50x/Download/spcaview-20071224.tar.gz -- Image scaling bug in gspca kernel module. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/93417 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
