What ae you using to load qtvcp in the INI?
Something like this should work;
# Embed tabs
EMBED_TAB_NAME= CamAlign
EMBED_TAB_COMMAND= halcmd loadusr -Wn qtvcp_embed qtvcp -d -c qtvcp_embed -x
{XID} cam_align
There should be a sample configuration in sim/axis/qtvcp that demos the code.

Come daylight, and a caffeine transfusion, I went out and found the 6040
was waiting for me to log
into a text screen, and had to startx after I had done that..
And qtvcp cam_align works just fine.
Turning around to the GO704, it too was waiting for a local login, but
once that was done, there
was no /dev/video0. So I found another camera and plugged it into the
front of that Dell,
THEN it had a /dev/video0. And mpv -av /dev/video0 looks exactly like
qtvcp's version.
So both cameras are working just fine by themselves.
Now, it seems to me that the first two EMBED lines in the [DISPLAY]
section for either machine
should generate an empty third tab on the preview window, w/o the third
line that
launches the actual camera function, but it does not, and axis doesn't
complain. But both configs
have an all balls debug= statement.
Do I have more than one problem?
The one on the 6040, IIRC, was working until a kernel update, whenever
that was.
2-3 months ago? But it is spindle mounted, and a cast iron bitch to use
because
changing an ER spindle tool is such a pita. I need to setup a TLO
target, and write
a std tool zeroing .ngc. But haven't found the round tuit. Been busier
than a 1
armed paper hanger making a B axis for the 6040, and fighting a losing
battle
with a series of 3d printers that claimed to be able to print PETG but
haven't
long survived the 50C higher nozzle temps that takes.
Take care and stay well Chris.
Cheers, Gene Heskett.
