need help setting up camera in linux
can somebody give me step by step instructions on
how to configure and record from a camera in linux |
No but I can probably help you find the answers.
What kind of camera and does it have a memory card that the pictures are saved on? |
it does have a memory card
but i am using it in stream mode |
What do you mean by "stream mode"?
|
Probably the best advice I can give you go here http://gphoto.sourceforge.net/
scroll down to "Introducing gPhoto2" Click on 1100 and see if your camera is spported then clcik on gphoto2 just above and see what you need. You will need: libgphoto2, gphoto2, and gtkam. First check whether your distro already has these. Try running gtkam from the cli. Also check and see if your distrohas this for installation by you package manager. |
in stream mode it acts as a web cam streaming live image data thru the usb
without storing it first |
Oh, well then I have no idea. Never needed that function.
WHy don't you just buy a web cam. :) |
its setup the same i just dont know how to set it up
and i could not compile VLC and they did not have a binary for my distro |
basicly i need a webcam software that works
without KDE or GNOME and to know how to configure it |
