Hi - I have a Philips PVC680 which uses the PWC module. I use 10.04 which I keep up to date. I cannot get the video stream from my camera with any of the usual apps. In gstreamer-properties I do not get the video window when trying to use the webcam input (I have tried all options in gstreamer-properties for the video output without success), I only get a video window when using the 'test' option (then I get colour bars). I do get the audio stream.
I have tried removing pwc before plugging in the webcam, but this does not help. cheese gives this error immediately ** Message: Error: Stream contains no data. vlc - statistics report 0bytes under every heading I have found in syslog this error - pwc: Failed to allocate decompress table. I am also happy to help in solving this issue. -- Logitech QuickCam USB webcams using pwc module (Pro, 3000, 4000) do not work if connected after booting https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/443278 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
