Hi All, I have Mythbuntu 8.04 installed on a box with two PVR-150 tuners.
I'd like to use Skype as well (I use a cordless mini keyboard to control the box so can easily access the other applications). The problem is I cannot get Skype to see the webcam. When I run: ls /dev/video* I get: /dev/video0 /dev/video2 /dev/video25 /dev/video33 /dev/video1 /dev/video24 /dev/video32 Which is a bit weird given I only have two tuners. The Skype set up only sees the two tuners video0 and video1 I've tested the webcam on the same machine with Cheese - which is great fun - and which can find the webcam, but when I install effectv - which is also great fun - it gives me a the following message v4lgetmbuf:VIDIOCGMBUF: Invalid argument video_init: mmap interface is not supported by this driver. regardless of the /dev/video option I use. I've googled it but couldn't find anything particularly helpful or specific to this problem. Anyone with any ideas? Many thanks in advance.
