question about mjpgstreamer
 

I have tested my webcam with cheese & guvcview and both of them show video from my logitech webcam.

However, when i tried to stream video using the following command, it shows green screen with few lines of random data.

root@beaglebone:~/mjpg-streamer# ./mjpg_streamer -i "./input_uvc.so -f 15 -r 320x240 -y -n" -o "./output_http.so -p 30000 -w ./www"
MJPG Streamer Version: svn rev:
i: Using V4L2 device.: /dev/video0
i: Desired Resolution: 320 x 240
i: Frames Per Second.: 15
i: Format............: YUV
i: JPEG Quality......: 80
o: www-folder-path...: ./www/
o: HTTP TCP port.....: 30000

How to troubleshoot?

thanks

Hi & welcome to LQ. A bit more information would help. What distro are you using? Where did you get mjpg-streamer? Here?
Is this the link that you are streaming to?

What application did you use to watch your video?
jdk

Hi Jdk,
I installed using apt-get install from the terminal. I used debian distro.
I've tried google chrome + IE to watch my video.
Regarding Pan/Tilt i've disabled it by option -n means nodynamic control.

Any idea why it doesnt show properly?

(i 've tried 2 webcam with no success)

thanks

No, sorry. I've never used mjpg streamer. Cheese, yes. If it doesn't work with Chrome, you could try it with Iceweasel (Firefox) and see if the same problem occurs. If it does then at least you can rule out the browser as the cause of your problem.
