I now have a follow up question, though. Cheese and wxCam do not allow any change in audio settings, so on capture video it only does video, and will not capture the audio with it. Is there a better program that will allow simultaneous video and audio capture? I have tried kdenlive, and could not find a video capture setting on it.

I got it working! http://www.3111skyline.com/dl/suse/11.4/compiz/screenshot.jpg The problem was a mixed version that I didn't discover until I went to remove everything and found the dependency: [23:54 alchemy:/home/david/suse/114/rpm/compiz] # rpm -e compiz compiz-bcop compiz-branding-openSUSE compiz-branding-SLE compiz-branding-upstream compizconfig-settings-manager compiz-devel compiz-emerald compiz-emerald-devel compiz-kde3 compiz-kde3-debuginfo compiz-plugin-photowheel compiz-plugins-main compiz-plugins-unsupported fusion-icon fusion-icon-gtk fusion-icon-qt3 libcompizconfig python-compizconfig error: Failed dependencies: python-compizconfig is needed by (installed) python-ccm-0.9.2.1-4.1.noarch ^^^^^^ I removed everything and then reinstalled: compiz-0.8.8-7.1.x86_64 compiz-branding-openSUSE-0.8.8-7.1.x86_64 compizconfig-settings-manager-0.8.4-5.2.noarch compiz-emerald-0.8.8-11.1.x86_64 compiz-kde3-0.8.8-7.1.x86_64 compiz-plugin-photowheel-0.8.6.git-3.1.x86_64 compiz-plugins-extra-0.8.8-6.8.x86_64 compiz-plugins-main-0.8.8-4.3.x86_64 compiz-plugins-unsupported-0.8.8-6.8.x86_64 fusion-icon-0.1-4.1.noarch fusion-icon-gtk-0.1-4.1.noarch fusion-icon-qt3-0.1-4.1.noarch libcompizconfig-0.8.8-4.1.x86_64 python-compizconfig-0.8.4-6.1.x86_64 emerald is working as well. Still a bit of xorg config needed, performance is a bit slow, but I think I can re-enable the extensions and get a bit better performance. Great stuff - thanks again! -- David C.

[opensuse] webcam video dark, maybe wrong driver?
by George OLson 01 Nov '11

Hello, I have an A4Tech PK-720G webcam plugged into my USB port. It has a built in microphone. I managed to get skype to pick up the camera microphone input (using pulse audio manager), and the video works to some degree, but it shows a very dark image even when I am in a very well-lighted room. Skype says it is using A4TECH USB2.0 PC CAMERA J(/dev/video0) If I run lsusb, the third line shows the following: Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0ac8:c40a Z-Star Microelectronics Corp. Also, the lines related to video when I run lsmod show the following: uvcvideo 70281 0 videodev 81448 1 uvcvideo v4l1_compat 17505 2 uvcvideo,videodev v4l2_compat_ioctl32 10573 1 videodev I don't really know what those indications mean, and I am kind of at a loss as to what to do next. I google searched for a driver that linux can use with this camera and couldn't find anything. How do I find a correct driver for this camera and what do I need to tweak to make it work right?
