5.5 & gspca

Irritating quirkyness: we have a bunch of videocams. To use, we use gspca. Usually, on an upgrade, I just go into the gspca directory (which appears, from their website, to have not been updated since '07), make clean, make, make install. Having gone up to 5.5, did the same. What's happening now is that it works, delivers the mpgs... but dumps errors in the logs...

gspca and motion

...58.11.1.el6.x86_64. Suddenly, we're having real problems with our cheap surveillance cameras in the "computer labs". What I see of video and jpg is only about 20%-25% of the top of the picture, and the rest is green. When the service starts, I see, in both dmesg and /var/log/messages, gspca: bandwidth not wide enough - trying again And they worked fine before. Anyone else seeing this, or have some thoughts on how I can attack the problem? The most recent post with this error I can find is from '10, and isn't really relevant. Oh, and at least one's on a Dell R420, I think...

gspca tarballs?

Does anyone know of a reliable site to d/l a tarball of gspca? *NOTHING* I've tried works on those two servers, suggesting to me that there's some weird bug in the driver that's in the kernel. They remain, as I mentioned, about the top 15% ok, and the rest green screen (which I've googled to find other folks, years ago, complaining about), so...

Back to gspca

Ok... digging still more into this problem that I'm *still* fighting, using mplayer and a higher debug level, what I *think* the significant message is (this is just one example line): libv4lconvert: Error decompressing JPEG: fill_nbits error: need 5 more bits fps = 15.626953, interval = 0.096001, a_skew = 0.000000, corr_skew = 0.000000 vcnt = 1, acnt = 0 Which seems to indicate that for some

gspca - running out of ideas

For video capture from a USB camera, as near as I can tell, there's a problem with the driver gspca_zc3xx with the latest update to the kernel. All our cameras were working fine before the update to 2.6.32-358.11.1; since, two cameras, both on fairly new Dell servers are screwed. Meanwhile, on some older servers, same update, no problems. Of the two bad ones, one's got AMD, and the other Int...

gspca - a followup

I *think* the problem I've been having with the gspca_zc3xx video drivers isn't directly that driver. One of my users, on one of the two servers that broke, started having continuing crashes from where he enabled mediawiki to server thumbnails for some images. That crash, according to the [abrt] full crash report, is from /usr/bin/convert, and /va...

v4l

Hi, folks. Ever since we brought some of our servers up to 6.x, where the gspca module comes with the kernel, instead of us building it, we've been seeing problems. One system gives very strange loops - someone walks through, then repeat a few times, then the next motion, etc. The current problem is that one camera went out on a different server (it's 6.2, and I'm...

I'll also mention that he really, really prefer that we not build except where absolutely necessary (like gspca for the video device). There's still the question: how can they build the package, if the dependency's not there? mark PS And I had to remove my hosting provider's mailhost *again*
