Fooling around, trying to make it work with modern language, the first 
thing I run into seems to be a missing file:

(gladevcp:20792): libglade-WARNING **: could not find glade file 
'probe_icons/probe_screen.glade'
 GLADE VCP ERROR:With xml file: probe_icons/probe_screen.glade : could 
not create GladeXML object
:0: gladevcp exited without becoming ready

Any chance that can be found?

Thanks Sam

Thank you from me, too.

OpenCV 2 is still working, but I've got some performance problems when the 
image has more than 10 circular objects.

It looks like I used opencv-2.4.9  (again - it was over 6 years ago)

Great, Sam. But in 2014, weren't you using camview?

My experience has been that its slow, and buggier than a ten day old road 
kill carcass in August. Or, I've had a whole row of bad cameras. If the 
axis display is expanded on a 1920 by screen, to the  point where the 
autosize has to start expanding the image to fill the tab, by even 1 
pixel, every camera I have tried has gone away to a black screen. 
Stopping linuxcnc and running cheese can't find a camera and requires a 
machine reboot to restore the camera to functional.  Now I've found a 
higher resolution camera that is spindle mounted and much sharper that 
just works, and I've installed eclipse and opencv and hope to get that 
working. Its a hundred bucks, has a cheesy mount that is very fiddly to 
adjust for parallax and certainly won't survive running into a fixture 
bolt, but the image is several times sharper too. I've got at least 2 
versions of camview, but the machine I was going to use it on lost its 
video about 18 hours after updating it to buster.  Onboard video on one 
of the now elderly D525MW boards.

So, I've a couple boxes of Dell's with i5 cpu's headed this way.  They 
should have the cajone's to run LCNC for a good long time.  And it will 
put me with 3 machines all alike plus one to program mesa cards with 
plus the pi4b running the biggest lathe.  And a trailer load of old 
stuff to clear out come warmer weather.

Anyway send me a url when you can.  And thanks a bunch.

Yes, that's it exactly Bari. Thanks.

But I did not realize until checking the youtube submission date, that it 
was so old. 2014. Now, I'd like to see if I can make it work with 
opencv. camview was glaringly slow back then with the video running 3 or 
4 seconds behind the machine, and crashing so often and hard that it 
took a reboot to run it again, and had more bugs than a 10 day old road 
kill carcass in august, making it very impractical to try to use so I 
gave up.

Now I've found another promising camera that I'd like to try. But this 
time I'll start with our 2.8 install iso so I'm not also battling with a 
7 yo OS called wheezy.

Buster is running TLM, and ran one of my mills right well a few days ago, 
for a few hours, but after the install, the video went away on that 
D525MW in an ARK shoebox.

So now I've bought 4 used optiplexes with i5 cpu's. So the hd with that 
install goes in the optiplex when it gets here.

Which is what I did when this box caught fire last year, at one of the 
mobo's usb 2 headers, so I replaced that Asus mobo with its phenom with 
another Asus carrying an i5, still booting from the same hd with stretch 
on it.  The phenom had horrible latency on a stock kernel, but this new 
6 core i5 is good enough to run machinery without a preempt-rt kernel.  
Time marches on as its doing it on 20% of the phenoms power draw.

Thanks Bari.

That's not the video I saw, and can't find again. I think it was one of 
yours where you were auto finding a red target dot by calculating the 
offset and a button click then drove the machine at a high rate of speed 
to put the red dot precisely in the cameras target circle. Wasn't that 
one of yours video's?

Greetings Sam;

Any chance of sharing a link to your additions to the ini file for 
bringing opencv into play? I was very well impressed with your automatic 
edge finding demo on you-tube. And I have finally found a camera that 
works. Spindle mount at present but I intend to put it on a swing mount 
eventually.

Sells for about $99 on ebay but is razor sharp. And Just Works with 
cheese on this stretch machine.

Thank you Sam.
