Re: Philips SPC 900NC PC Camera via usb with v4l

Hi Martin,



I'm not an expert on this, but with some help from this list I was able =

to get my SPC 600 NC working.=A0 Let's start with some of the same =

diagnostics.



Is there an entry for your web cam when you execute the following command?


lsusb



One of my problems with the SPC 600 NC was the sn9c102 module was being =

erroneously loaded.=A0 What do you get when you execute the following =

command?

lsmod | grep sn9c



In the case of the SPC 600 NC, I needed the system to use the gspca =

module.=A0 I had to remove the sn9c102 module and then blacklist it so =

future kernel updates wouldn't reload it.



Let us know what you find,



Curt

Hi,

Iam trying to capture a video or an image from the Philips SPC 900NC PC
Camera - Webcam.

I downloded the capture.c file and changed following lines.

...
//had to be replaced from - fmt.fmt.pix.pixelformat =3D V4L2_PIX_FMT_YUYV; =
to
fmt.fmt.pix.pixelformat =3D V4L2_PIX_FMT_YUV420;
fmt.fmt.pix.field=A0 =A0 =A0=A0=A0=3D V4L2_FIELD_INTERLACED;
...

than after compiling and executing I get an output of dots.

Do I have to download somewhere a headerfile, becaue in the Spec is a header
file which is not on the homepage.

What I need is a little push, so I maybe see an image or an video from the
webcam, so that I can begin experimenting with it.

Is the video somewhere in the Memmory in form of a stream ?

Hopefully you can help me a bit,

Thx in advance,

Martin
