Hi Greggory,
Looks good to me.
A lot of beeps means that the mjpg decoder in webview.exe encountered a lot of invalid huffman codes. May be this camera uses its own specific set of huffman codes. If this is true than you are out of luck because I cannot support that. Take a TestShot so I can inspect the webview.raw file. But there is hope. If your webcam supports yuyv video too then I could modify weblook.exe to use yuyv instead. An additional parameter /u could enable that feature.
Both weblook.exe and uvcview.exe operate your webcam. They cannot do that at the same time. Hence the open error.
I am currently working on a full replacement of WebSeeBeta1.zip that contains all fixes up to and including the ones required for Mike and os4user. Now I will add the /u parameter to weblook.exe and to uvcview.exe too.
Regards, Wim.
Hi Wim,
I was wondering if you could support the Logitech Webcam C270 !
Here's some output for it:
1) Weblook output:
started.
[0104241B]
[01052432]
[0206240B]
[01072432]
MJPG
[00000BF4]
[00000010]
On-line. Use Ctrl+Break to end.
[open isochronous]
Looks good to me.
