HI all,
Any ideas? Thanks!
Hi Mike, I have the same microdia webcam. It is one of the webcams which is difficult to get working. In 10.3 and 11.0 I had it working with luvcview and mplayer but after a hard disc breakdown and a new install I am as far as you at the moment. There is a Microdia group but they have given up working on the SN9C120 camera's. I am still trying to find out how to get it working and will keep you informed.
James, Got video today with my Microdia camera. Here is what I did. By the way, I am running 11.1 KDE 4.3x Had a look into my old data and for the moment I have at least a video image. Please check if you have following gstreamer files: gstreamer-0_10 gstreamer-0_10-plugins-bad gstreamer-0_10-plugins-base gstreamer-0_10-plugins-good gstreamer-0_10-plugins-good -extra gstreamer-0_10-plugins-ugly gstreamer-0_10-utils libgstapp-0_10-0 libgstinterfaces-0_10-0 libgstreamer-0_10 That is at least the list I always try to have. Further try to get everything with should give you v4l2 action. Do not know if that is 100% necessary but it was some versions ago ;). Download videoview from http://www.linux-projects.org/downloads/videoview-bin-20070721.tar.gz and install videoview. I just got the *videoview out of the tar.gz file and use it without any problems. in konsole : videoview, accept the license and press "open". Just for the beginning press "start preview" and with my setup I have a video image from my camera. Working on Skype ;).
