Creative Webcam Help
Anytime i start palantir (or any software trying to use webcam) i get the following msg in log file:
drivers/usb/media/ov511.c: Invalid channel (1) it also tells me : [video] RGB palette unavailable, using YUV lsmod|grep video shows me: video 16197 0 videodev 9665 1 ov511 I have updated the ov511 driver to ov511-2.31. My system is: Pentium Celeron 2.4 Fedora Kernel - 2.6.15-1.1831_FC4 webcam - Creative webcam pro mode PD1030 The camera works, but does not show video, just shows a greyish/brown screen. Any suggestions to get we pointed in the right direction would be appreciated ? |
ov51x driver
I solved this problem in ubuntu not sure what the commands for fedora are but maybe you can translate my how to and i will upload a new page for fedora.
anyway here is a link to the how to for ubuntu breezy. it has something to do with jpeg decompression, and propriety binarys being load into the kernel. |
